(Continued from the previous page) ...one cannot attain sagehood. Hence [the seeing outflow] constitutes the substance (*体*) of outflows. [Those at the level of] the first three fruits and so on, although they possess cultivation-path afflictions (*修惑*), can still attain sagehood — hence the cultivation outflow also serves as the conditions (*具*) of outflows. If one proceeds according to the two [modes of] elimination [seeing-path elimination and cultivation-path elimination], then the seeing outflow (*見漏*) is eliminated on the seeing path, the reflective outflow (*思惟漏*) is eliminated on the cultivation path, and the five [outflows of] craving, mindfulness, and so on each correspondingly extend to both [modes of elimination]. The meaning of these seven outflows is as explained in the *Nirvāṇa Sūtra* [Note: Northern version, fascicle two (folio twelve) and fascicle twenty-two (folio twenty-one)], the *Satyasiddhi-śāstra* (*成実論*) [Note: fascicle two (folio seven), fascicle twelve (initial folio right), and *Vibhāṣā* (*婆娑*) fascicle forty-seven (folio eighteen)], and so on. Furthermore, in the second fascicle of the *Āgama Sūtras* (*阿含経*), in the section on the cessation of the exhaustion of outflows, seven types of outflows to be eliminated are explained. [For further details,] see the explanation there.
Regarding "The text: 'Seventh: the eight discriminations,' up to 'the obstacles contrary to the eight [discriminations]' ": The "dharma-body (*法体*)" — [the text] takes knowing the substance of form (*色*) and so on and names [the discrimination] after the object; hence [it is] called "intrinsic-nature discrimination (*自性分別*)." "Difference (*差別*)" means: with regard to that substance, discriminating the meanings of distinctions such as visible, invisible, and so on. Regarding the "comprehensive-grasping discrimination (*惣執分別*)," [which includes] "self (*我*), sentient beings (*有情*), and so on" — and the fourth [discrimination of] "self" and the fifth [discrimination of] "self's possessions (*我所*)" — what difference is there between these? [Commentary:] According to [the Yogācāra master] Kuījī (*大乗基*) of the Great Tang: the former "comprehensive grasping" is framed in terms of the two types of grasping [dharma-grasping and person-grasping], while the latter involves discrimination of self (*我*) and self's possessions (*我所*) — hence there is a distinction. Among the eight discriminations [Note: the *Abbreviated Compendium* (*略纂*) has an explanation of the eight discriminations at the end of fascicle ten; cf. also *Lun Ji* (*倫記*) fascicle nine, upper, folio fifty-two], the first three are expedient means (*方便*) of dharma-grasping (*法執*); the fourth and fifth are expedient means of person-grasping (*人執*); and the latter three are expedient means of the three poisons (*三毒*). Alternatively, the first three extend as expedient means to both types of grasping [dharma-grasping and person-grasping], while the fourth and fifth are exclusively expedient means of person-grasping. These eight discriminations do not [directly] take up the dharma-grasping [Note: one version reads: "do not take up [what arises] when dharma-grasping and person-grasping are arising directly"] at the very moment it arises — because dharma-grasping does not directly ripen into [karmic] retribution (*感報*). The Tripiṭaka Master of the Great Tang [i.e., Xuanzang] says: "The eight types of discrimination all have non-obscuring, neutral, retribution-born wisdom (*無覆無記異熟生慧*) as their fundamental nature. Alternatively, it is possible to take examination (*尋*, *vitarka*) and investigation (*伺*, *vicāra*) as [their] fundamental nature — as explained in the *Jiéshén-mì-shū* (*深密疏*) by Xīmíng [Daoxuan] (*西明*), fascicle two." The *Compendium* (*纂述*) says: "These eight discriminations are all dharma-grasping. Because that ignorance (*無明*) causes confusion about (*迷*) suchness (*真如*), [the mind] discriminates and grasps [experiences of] forms and other phenomena in a distorted manner. Although the fourth and fifth [discriminations] take the object of self (*我境*) as their object, they are not defiled — hence they are subsumed under dharma-grasping."
【Lower Section】
Furthermore, the first three types are dharma-grasping that arises individually. The latter five are dharma-grasping that shares the same substance (*同体*) as the affliction obstruction (*煩悩障*). The fourth and fifth [discriminations], because they arise sharing the same substance as the view of self (*我見*), follow the mode of apprehension of self (*我行相*) and discriminate the characteristics of distinctions among their own ground [or other grounds?]. The latter three share the same substance as greed and so on, follow the mode of apprehension of greed and so on, and discriminate the characteristics of opposition (*違*), accordance (*順*), and neither (*倶非*). Now, the intention of the author of this chapter is that this meaning is not [exactly] the same [as the above]. [The text] already says "through the eight discriminations, [one] is able to generate the three things (*三事*)." Hence we know [the eight discriminations] are expedient means for taking up dharma-grasping and so on. Why is it that the latter three do not take up the root [afflictions]? [Commentary:] By distinguishing between the different meanings of "expedient means capable of generating" and "root [afflictions] that are generated," [we] clarify that the latter three function as expedient means and are capable of generating the root three poisons — hence [the latter three] also take up expedient means.
Regarding "The text: 'The first three are generative discriminations (*生分別*),' up to 'in principle, extending to seeing-path elimination' ": Regarding "the supporting conditions (*所依*), objects (*縁*), and things (*事*) of the first three generative discriminations": the "supporting condition (*所依*)" is precisely the world of sentient beings (*有情世間*); the "object (*所縁*)" is the material world (*器世間*); and the latter two things are both (within) the world of sentient beings. When the first three discriminations [Note: one version reads "two" instead of "three"] seek to give rise to the root three dharma-graspings, they take as their object the projected aspect-images (*相分*) of their own dependent body (*依身*) and the material world, and perfume (*薫成*) the seeds of their own body and the material world, thereby generating their own body and the material world at a later time. The own-body is called "support (*依*)," and the external material [world] is called "object (*縁*)." Once the support and object have been generated, the root three types of dharma-grasping arise. Hence [the text] says "the first three generative discriminations take up the things of support and object (*依縁事*)." The next two discriminations are established as expedient means; hence [they] are capable of giving rise to the root [graspings of] self (*我*), self's possessions (*我所*), and pride (*我慢*). Without separately discussing the perfuming of seeds, [these] give rise to subsequent views of self and so on. The latter three discriminations mutually [Note: one version reads "立" (establish) instead of "互" (mutually)] serve as expedient means and draw out the root greed, anger, and delusion and so on. Also without discussing the perfuming of seeds, [these] then give rise to greed and so on.
Regarding "The text [Note: one version lacks these twenty or so characters beginning with 文]: 'Furthermore there are eight entanglements (*八纏*),' up to 'in principle, also extending to seeing [path elimination]' ": Among these eight entanglements, the first two obstruct raising [effort (*挙*, *udgṛhṇāti*)]; the next two obstruct cessation (*止*, *śamatha*); the next two obstruct equanimity (*捨*, *upekṣā*); and the latter two obstruct precepts (*戒*, *śīla*). Speaking precisely of [their] nature, [these] in principle extend to both seeing [path] and cultivation [path elimination]. [This is] because they arise following the force of the two [types of] afflictions. [For further detail,] see the explanations in the treatises [Note: *Abhidharmasamuccaya* (*対法論*), fascicle seven (initial folio left); *Yogācārabhūmi* (*瑜伽論*), fascicle eighty-nine].

Regarding "The text: 'Eighth: the nine bonds (*九結*),' up to 'the bonds extend to cultivation-path elimination' ": The nine bonds (*九結*, *nava-saṃyojanāni*) are: the bond of craving (*愛結*), the bond of anger (*恚結*), the bond of pride (*慢結*), the bond of ignorance (*無明結*), the bond of views (*見結*), the bond of grasping (*取結*), the bond of doubt (*疑結*), the bond of delusion (*癡結*), and the bond of miserliness (*慳結*). [Commentary:] Concerning these nine bonds, there are three aspects [to consider]. First is intrinsic nature (*自性*); second is function (*功用*); third is position differentiation (*位差別*). Regarding "intrinsic nature": the bond of craving refers to the craving of the three realms; the bond of anger refers to the anger that is a derivative affliction (*随惑*) of the desire realm [Note: the two characters "随惑" (*suí-huò*) are probably superfluous]; the bond of pride refers to the seven [types of] pride (*七慢*); the bond of ignorance refers to the non-knowing of the three realms; the bond of views refers to the view of the existing body (*薩迦耶見*, *satkāyadṛṣṭi*) and extreme views (*邊見*, *antagrāhadṛṣṭi*); the bond of grasping refers to the two graspings of view-grasping (*見取*, *dṛṣṭiparāmarśa*) and precept-grasping (*戒取*, *śīlavrataparāmarśa*); the bond of doubt refers to wavering and indecision regarding the four truths (*四諦*) and the three jewels (*三宝*); the bond of delusion refers to derivative afflictions; and the bond of miserliness is also a derivative affliction. Regarding "function": those who possess these bonds do not tire of the three realms; through these [bonds], unwholesome [actions] are continuously manifested, while wholesome [actions] cease to be manifested. Regarding "position": at what position [do these bonds manifest]? — that is to say, at the position where the ripened fruit (*異熟果*) of a subsequent life arises. For further detail, see the explanation in fascicle six of the *Abhidharmasamuccaya*. The distinction of the two eliminations [seeing-path and cultivation-path] can be understood from the text itself.
Regarding "The text: 'Ninth: the [nine] latent tendencies (*随眠*, *anuśayāḥ*),' up to 'explaining the scope of elimination' ": Among the nine latent tendencies (*九随眠*), the first three are the seeds of the root afflictions; hence [they are] all called "latent tendencies" with respect to the three [realms] above [one another]. Among these, anger (*瞋*) takes only [its] seed, while greed (*貪*) and delusion (*癡*) also extend to [their] manifest activity. Innately arisen [afflictions] (*倶生*) that confuse principle (*理*)—if they do not give rise to evil actions—are all subsumed under the first three. Furthermore, anger also has [forms that are] innately co-arising with views and doubt. Since these cannot be suppressed in manifest activity by the worldly path (*世間道*), [they] may also well be subsumed under the first three. Although [anger's] nature is unwholesome and [anger] exists only in the desire realm (*欲界*), nevertheless, since [it] arises within the body of one who has departed from desire (*離欲者*),
【Lower Section】
it can also remotely support and give rise to immovable karma (*不動業*, *āneñjyakarman*). However, since this is not a direct [cause], it is not bound to the upper realms (*上界*). [This is] like the case in which [a teaching] comes [Note: "来" (*lái*) is probably a miswriting of "未" (*wèi*)] that, although relying upon a lower ignorance (*下無明*), that ignorance is not bound to the upper realms. "The fourth [latent tendency]: the mind at the peak of the three poisons (*三毒極上心*)" — "peak" (*極上*) means the same as "supreme" (*増上*). [This] takes only the coarse-category afflictions (*麤品の惑*) of the desire realm that arise through confusion about [sensory] things (*事*) and are suppressed by the worldly path. "The fifth [latent tendency]: the ignorance abiding ground (*無明住地*)" is precisely [the category] subsumed under the cognitive obstruction (*所知障*): [it refers to] all afflictions, whether manifest or as seeds. Here [the text] says "afflictions (*煩悩*)" — [speaking] in terms of coarse [items] [Note: the character "coarse (*麤*)" is probably missing below "望"]. "The sixth: 'what is eliminated by the seeing of truths' and so on" — the afflictions in the body of a person who has not yet entered the first ground, those that obstruct the seeing path (*見道*), are called "what is eliminated by the seeing of truths (*見諦所滅*)." The afflictions in the body of the sages of the three vehicles (*三乗*) that are capable of obstructing the cultivation path (*修道*) are called "afflictions eliminated by cultivation (*修所断の惑*)." These two afflictions are obstructions common to the three vehicles. Hence we know: [these] are afflictions and not cognitive obstructions (*所知障*). The afflictions present up through the seventh ground (*七地*) are called "afflictions of the impure grounds (*不浄地惑*)." The afflictions present from the eighth ground (*八地*) upward are called "afflictions of the pure grounds (*浄地惑*)." These latter two afflictions are exclusively obstructions of bodhisattvas, hence [they] are cognitive [obstructions]. For further detail, see the explanations in the *Ratnagotravibhāga* (*宝性論*) [Note: fascicle four (folio fifteen)] and the *Buddha-nature Treatise* (*仏性論*) [Note: fascicle four (initial folio)]. "The sixth [latent tendency] exclusively seeing[-path elimination] and so on" represents the distinction of the two eliminations.
Regarding "The text: 'Ninth: the ten afflictions (*十煩悩*),' up to 'the sequence of positions of elimination' ": The ten afflictions (*十煩悩*) are formed by taking the six afflictions and expanding views into five [types], thus resulting in ten. The "ten scatterings (*十散動*)" — among the ten discriminations including the root discrimination and so on, the tenth type, the scattering discrimination (*散乱分別*), further has ten sub-types. These are: discrimination of no-nature (*無性分別*), discrimination of having-nature (*有性分別*), discrimination of superimposition (*増益分別*), discrimination of deprecation (*損減分別*), discrimination of single-nature (*一性分別*), discrimination of distinct-nature (*異性分別*), discrimination of intrinsic-nature (*自性分別*), discrimination of differentiation (*差別分別*), discrimination following name and meaning (*随名義分別*), and discrimination according to meaning [as name] (*随義名分別*). These ten discriminations (continue...)
