'The Onefold Vehicle'. This is in contrast to the ‘Twofold Vehicle’ or ‘two types of vehicles’ (theg pa rnam pa gnyis), which are those of the śrāvakas and pratyekabuddhas. The fact that the bodhisattva vehicle is not included here in these terms, frequently employed and originally found in the Lotus Sūtra, implies that the true nature of the bodhisattvayāna is indeed the ekayāna. In other words, the One Vehicle is the true Mahāyāna vehicle. [Erick Tsiknopoulos]
