Good morning!
The triple vehicles are Hearers (sāvaka), Solitery buddhas (pacceka- buddha), and Bodhisattva/Great (mahā) Vehicle (yāna). Bodhisattva/Great Vehicle is to save all or even to save others first and oneself last.
Pacchekabuddhas were thought to be those who were awakened to paccaya (causal conditions) or paṭiccasamuppāda (dependent origination). Pacceka/ prati-eka means solitary or individualistic, not living or sharing with others.
The Buddha first sought goodness for his salvation, but after rightly and completely understanding the Dharma of Dependent Origination, sought for holiness to save all as a bodhisattva, as all are inseparably interconnected.
Bodhisattva was first applied to his aspiring for his awakening but later applied to his aspiring for others’ awakening. The most famous bodhisattvas like Avalokitasvara, Maitreya were coined from his own life episodes.
So, let us correctly and completely understand the Dharma of Dependent Co- origination to live the bodhisattva ideals to share it with and for all, as Dogen said, “If not with all, it is not the Awakened Way or Great Vehicle!”
Thank you!
おはようございます！
三乗（さんじょう）とは、声聞（sāvaka）、独覚（pacceka-buddha）、そして菩薩（bodhisattva）／大乗（mahā-yāna）を見てます。菩薩／大乗とは、「すべてを救う道」、さらには「まず他を恐れ、最後に自らを救う道（自未得度先度）」です。
独覚仏（paccekabuddha）は、縁（paccaya ）や縁起（paṭiccasamuppāda ）に目覚めた者と考えられてきました。
仏陀も最初は、勝手に悩むために「善」（kusala）を求めましたが、**縁起の法（縁起の法）**を正しく完全に理解したのち、すべてを救うための「聖」（ariya/hagia: holence）を求められました。なぜなら、すべての存在はすぐにも切れない関係になっているからです。
「菩薩（bodsattva）」という言葉は、もともとは仏陀が自分の覚りを目指す姿に使われましたが、のちに他の人の覚りを望む姿に対しても使われるようになりました。
もちろん、私たちもまた、縁起のダルマを正しく完全に理解し、菩薩の理想を生きましょう。 それを他とともに、他のために分かち合って生きましょう。
有難うございます！
