'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Triyâna}}'''. “The three vehicles” across Sansâra — the ocean of births, deaths, and rebirths — are the vehicles called ''Sravaka, Pratyeka Buddha'' and'' Bodhisattva'', or the three degrees of Yogaship. The term Triyâna is also used to denote the three schools of mysticism — the Mahâyâna, Madhyimâyâna and Hînayâna schools; of which the first is the “Greater”, the second the “ Middle”, and the last the “Lesser” Vehicle. All and every system between the Greater and the Lesser Vehicles are considered “useless”. Therefore the Pratyeka Buddha is made to correspond with the Madhyimâyâna. For, as explained, “this (the Pratyeka Buddha state) refers to him who lives all for himself and very little for others, occupying the middle of the vehicle, filling it all and leaving no room for others ”. Such is the selfish candidate for Nirvâna. | '''{{Style S-Small capitals|Triyâna}}'''. “The three vehicles” across Sansâra — the ocean of births, deaths, and rebirths — are the vehicles called ''Sravaka, Pratyeka Buddha'' and'' Bodhisattva'', or the three degrees of Yogaship.
