In the Udstra, dharmajndna begins the list.
106. We can understand why a being in Arupyadhatu cannot manifest the dharmajndna which has for its object suffering, its arising, etc. of the sphere of Kamadhatu, but why are beings in Rupadhatu incapable of it? We have seen that a person manifests this jtldna by entering into the dhydnas (which are Rupadhatu) (vii. l4c). Some say: "Dharmajndna has for its end the detesting {vidunana) of Kamadhatu; now a person in Rupadhatu has abandoned Kamadhatu by the very fact that he has transmigrated to a sphere of detachment [from Kamadhatu]; therefore the dharmajfldna does not have to arise. The case of a person detached from Kamadhatu [and who has entered into a dhydna due to this detachment] is different: he can manifest the dharmajndna because his existence in Kamadhatu is not exhausted. "
Samghabhadra explains differently why dharmajndna can only be manifested by beings in Kamadhatu: tatsamdpattivyutthdnacittdndm kdmadhdtdv eva sadbhdvdt/ anuparivarta- kdiraydbhdvdd vd/ dharmajHdndnuparivartakasya hi iilasya kdmdvacardny eva bhutdny diraya dauhiUyasamutthdpakakleiaprdptivibandhakatvdt prdtipaksikatvdt/ tdni ca tatra na santUi dharmajtldnam kdmadhdtvdirayam eva: "Because it is only in Kamadhatu that the thoughts of departing from the absorption [in which one realizes dharmajndna] is possible; or rather because, in the two higher spheres, the elements {bhutas) which can serve as the support {diraya) of the type of morality (iila) which necessarily accompanies dharmajndna are missing. This morality is opposed to the kleias which produce immorality (dauhiilya); immorality exists only in Kamadhatu; the elements susceptible of supporting morality which are opposed to this therefore exist only in Kamadhatu.

107. See iv. 13c.
108. This preamble is missing in Paramartha.
109. According to Hsuan-tsang. Paramartha literally translates his original which is rendered in Tibetan by: chos bcu dag ni sbyar bar bya: "Ten dharmas should by placed in relationship", and he adds the Bhusya: "In order to determine the object of the jndnas, one should establish the relationship of the ten jndnas with the ten types of dharma. What are these ten types of dharmas} . . . "
110. On one hand pratisamkhydnirodha or Nirvana, on the other hand apratisamkhydni- rodha and dkds'a.
111. Marge dharmajndna bears on the Path; the morality which is andsravasarhvara, that is to say rupa (iv. l3c) forms part of the Path.
112. Hsiian-tsang: Is there a moment of knowledge which grasps all the dharmas for its object?
This appears to be the beginning of the discussion of Vibhdsd, TD 27, p. 43a2, quoted by Saeki: "Is there ? jndna which knows all the dharmas? No. What is it that the jndna, which knows that all the dharmas are not an dtman, does not know? It does not know itself; it does not know the dharmas which are associated with it or which coexist with it. By saying that it does not know itself, one refutes the thesis of the Mahasamghikas; by saying that it does not know the dharmas associated with it, one refutes the thesis of the Dharmaguptas (fa-mi-pu ? ? ? )'> by saying that it does not know the dharmas which coexist with it, one refutes the thesis of the Mahisasakas; by saying that jndna knows, one refutes the thesis of the Vatsiputriyas [which attribute consciousness to the Pudgala? ]. "
Compare Kathdvatthu, v. 9, where the Andhakas quote a text: sabbasankhdresu antccat? dipphesu tarn pi ndnam aniccato dippham hoti. The Vyakhyd quotes the Sutra: ihdsmdkam bho gautama upasthdnasdldydm samnisanndndm samnipatitdndm evamrupo'natardkatha- samuddharo'bhut/ sramanogautamah kilaivam aha/ ndstisa kascic chramano vdbrdhmano vdyah sakrt sarvarh jdniydt sarvam pasyed iti/ tathyam idarh bho gautama/.
113. Bodhicaryavatara, ix. 18: na cchinatti yathdtmdnam asidhard tathd manah. This is a common position in Indian philosophy; nevertheless the Sautrantika-Vijnanavadins say that the lamp illumines itself. By a curious contradiction, the Vaibhasikas who deny that the mind knows itself, admit that sensation (vedand) is felt not by another sensation, but by the very fact that it is present (iv. 49).
114. Paramartha omits the last phrase ("If it were otherwise . . . ") and translates: "When it is a jndna in Kamadhatu it is a prajfid of hearing and reflection; when it is a jndna in Rupadhatu, it is only a prajnd of hearing, not of meditation, for this last type of prajnd always has a determined sphere for its object. "
Vasubandhu follows the Samyuktdbhidharma-hrdaya, TD 28, p. 953c21: "This jndna is a prajnd of hearing, and reflection, but not of meditation; for the prajfid of absorption has a delimited object. "
Vyakhyd: tasya vyavacchinnabhumydlambanatvdd iti/ yasmdd bhdvandmayam rupdvacaram samvrtijHdnam vyavacchinndm eva bhumim dlambate/ kdmadhdtum vd prathamam vd dhydnam ydvad bhavdgram vd/ kim kdranam/ dnantaryavimuktimdrgdndm adharottarabhumydlambavatvdd yathoktam yathdkramam santddyudaradyakara uttarddha- ragocara iti vacandt (vi. 49) yadi ca tat sarvabhumyalambanam sydt sarvato ? ? gap ad vairdgyam sydt/ prayogavihsamdrgayor yathdsambhavam kd cid eva bhumir dlambanam/ katham/ nirvedhabhdgiyaprayogamargasamgrhitasyahiyasyakdmadhdturdlambanamna tasyetarau dhdtu/ yasyetarau dhdtu na tasya kdmadhdtur dlambanam/ aiubhdpramdndbhi- bhvdyatanddividusanavis'esamdrgasa mgrhitasya kdmadhdtur evdlambanam netarau dhdtu.
According to Yasbmitra, a faithful interpreter of Vasubandhu who is, on this point,
? approved of by Samghabhadra, it is solely through a prajn~d of meditation (bhdvand) that one obtains detachment (vairdgya). The prajfid of hearing and reflection, which is in Kumadhatu, cannot bear on the dharmas of all the spheres: it is not enough to become disgusted with it: the prajnd of bhdvand is more powerful (iv. l23c). Based on this, Vasubandhu concludes that the universal consciousness of "the absence of self" of the dharmas belongs to Kamadhatu, for if it belonged to Rupadhatu (that is to say arising from bhdvand, and being obtained in the dhyanas) it would produce detachment from all of the spheres. Samghabhadra contests this reasoning, for the prajnd cultivated in dhyanas (impure prajnd, since it is a samvrtijndna) never includes disgust for the higher sphere to which it wishes to deliver itself (vi. 49)
Let us note here that Hsuan-tsang translates the two pddas 18c-d (TD 29, p. 138a22) by three pddas: "Samvrtijndna, by excluding its group, together has all the dharmas for its object, by comprehending them under the aspect of non-self", and he adds a fourth pdda: "it arises from hearing and reflection. "
Samghabhadra, in his second treatise, the Prakaranasdsana (TD 29, p. 952al0) corrects the kdrikds where Vasubandhu departs from correct Vaibhasika doctrine; the version of Hsuan-tsang (p. 138a23) gives, in the fourth pdda: "It arises from hearing, reflection and meditation. " Samghabhadra thinks in fact (in his first treatise, the Nydydnusdra, TD 29,p. 742cl8 and following): "This jndna is only in Kamadhatu and Rupadhatu, but not in Arupyadhatu . . . It is a prajfid of hearing, reflection, and meditation (bhdvand): for these three prajnas are capable of having all the dharmas for their object with the exclusion of themselves and their group. It is true that the Sautrantika (=Vasubandhu) says: 'This jndna is not a prajnd of meditation . . . ' But this is false. In our system the prajnd of meditation of the sphere of the dhydna takes for its object the sphere in which it is found, namely, the higher sphere; it produces disgust with respect to the lower sphere, and joy with respect to the higher sphere: thus it does not produce detachment with respect to the higher sphere. The argument of the Sautrantika is therefore null and void. "
It appears that, according to what Yasomitra says here, we should consider as viiesamdrga (vi. 65) the disgust (vidusana) which includes [the qualities, guna, namely] aiubhd (vi. 9), the apramdnas (viii. 29) and the abhibhvdyatanas (viii. 35a). All these qualities are visesa (v. 10a, trans, p. 785); they are acquired through prayoga, dnantarya, vimuktimdrga, and are prolongued in visesamdrga (vi. 65); see vii. 25d.
115. Hsiian-tsang: In the states or moments which do not include any augmentation of the number ofjndnas (3rd, 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 15th moments of abhisamaya), he possesses the jndnas of the last previous moment which does include augmentation. Therefore, at the beginning of bhdvandmdrga (16th moment), he necessarily possesses seven jndnas.
116. This last phrase has been added by Hsiian-tsang.
117. Vydkhyd: iha dvividhd bhdvanddhikrtdpratilambhabhdvand nisevanabhdvand ca/ pratilambhabhdvand prdptitah/ nisevanabhdvand sammukhibhdvatah.
"Cultivation" is understood here as the acquisition or taking possession, and manifestation. (See vii. 27).
118. Yathotpanndni bhdvyante = ydni ydny utpanndni tdni tdni bhdvyante (bhdvyante = bhdvandm gacchanti). Bhdvyante signifies "are acquired", since it refers to future ksdntis and jndnas.
119. The ksdnti or jndna produced are sabhdgahetu (ii. 52a)--a cause whose result resembles it--of a future ksdnti and jndna of the same species.
120. The question does not refer to the ksdntis because there are no ksdntis in

122. Darsanamdrga is all pure (andsrava) and the ascetic who cultivates it does not produce a samvrtijfiana in the course of his practice. But he takes possession in moments 4,8, and 12 of the samvrtijfidna relative to each Truth: leaving the Path of Seeing, he possesses, and will be able to manifest, a conventional, worldly (sdmrrta, laukika) consciousness of the Truths, which is called prsphalabdha, see vii. 2b.
123. We have seen above (vii. 7, note 25) that the "patiences" produced in the course of abhisamaya are called dbhisamaydntika.
Mahdvyutpatti, 54. 20 (Vibhdsd, TD 27, p. 188c9): abhisamaydntikam kuialamulam (translatedintoTibetanasmnonparrtogspa'ilammtha'las*byunbaandmnonpar rtogs

124. But all persons, in the course of samsdra, have understood Suffering, its Arising and its Extinction by the worldly path (Vydkhyd).
125. In fact Arising should again be abandoned by the Seeing of Extinction and the Path, and again by the Path of Meditation, whereas all Suffering is perfectly known (parijndta) by the Seeing of Suffering. But the Arising which should be abandoned by the Seeing of Arising is found to be already abandoned. (Paramartha's translation).
126. The Vaibhasikas think that the sixteenth moment belongs to bhdvandmdrga (vi. 28c); some other schools include it in darsanamdrga.
127. Vydkhyd: vayam hi bhdvandmdrgaparivdro'pi tad iti brumah.

We understand by this that, by realizing these Abhijnas, one does not take possession of the same future Abhifiuas.
142.
The three Abhijnas are rddhi, purvenivdsa and cetahparydya.
143- An ascetic detaches himself from Kamadhatu by a worldly path which has for its support {samniirayena, that is to say "is cultivated in") anagamya (introductory stage of the First Dhyana) and, through this detachment, he obtains the First Dhyana; at the moment of the ninth vimuktimdrga of this detachment, he cultivates a samvrtijfidna of the sphere of the anagamya or of the sphere of the First Dhyana; and so on until: he detaches himself from dkincanydyatana through the worldly path practiced in the sdmantaka (preparatory) stage of naivasamjfidnasamjHdyatana, he obtains a samvrtijfidna of the sphere of the sdmantaka or of the sphere of the naivasamjndnasamjndyatana. Samvrtijfidna is cultivated under the same conditions when the ascetic detaches himself from Kamadhatu through the path cultivated in pure {andsrava) anagamya.
But if the ascetic obtains the first pure dhyana by practicing the pure path in the First Dhyana, the samvrtijfidna that he obtains is of the sphere of the sdmantaka of the Second Dhyana which is opposed to the first. . . to the ninth category of the defilements {kleias) of the First Dhyana--for this is the first time that this ascetic obtains the first pure dhyana. And, in the ninth vimuktimdrga of the path by which he obtains the first pure dhyana, he cultivates, in the future, a samvrtijfidna of the second dhyana {Vydkhyd).
144. An ascetic takes his support from the second pure dhyana and, in this manner, detaches himself in the Third Dhyana: the purejndna which is cultivated is of the sphere of the Path, that is to say of the Second Dhyana; it is moreover in the ninth vimuktimdrga of detachment, of the sphere in which he detaches himself, namely the Third Dhyana; it is also of a lower sphere, namely of the First Dhyana, of anagamya. For it happens that the preparatory path is of a lower sphere: the jndna of a lower sphere will therefore be able to be cultivated.
But when an ascetic detaches himself from the Second Dhyana by taking as his support the sdmantaka of the Third Dhyana, neither in the dnantarya nor in the vimukti paths can a pure jfidna of the sphere of the sdmantaka be cultivated: in fact there is no pure jfidna in this sdmantaka (viii. 22a). The cultivated jndna will be inferior to the Path: of the Second Dhyana, of dhydndntara, of the First Dhyana, or of anagamya.
145. Hsuan-tsang: "Only in the first ksayajnana does he cultivate all of the impure qualities of the nine spheres. " With the gloss: "In the first ksayajfidna, that is to say in the ninth vimuktimdrga of detachment from Bhavagra, and in the ninth vimuktimdrga of the five perfecting of the faculties" {TD 29, p. 139c25).

The meaning is that, at the moment of ksayajndna, there is produced the possession of
all the qualities to a great degree of excellence.
148. Compare the first Cakravartin King, Ko/a, iii. 96c.
149- Hsiian-tsang (p. 139cl6) adds a pdda: "Arisen above he does not cultivate the lower":, a thesis developed in the Vydkhyd: When one obtains the quality of Arhat (that is to say ksayajndna) in Kamadhatu, the asubhas, etc. , of the Three Dhatus are "cultivated" {bhavandm gacchanti); when one obtains the quality of Arhat in Rupadhatu, or in Arupyadhatu, the same qualities are cultivated belonging to these Dhatus. The same with respect to the different bhumis of these Dhatus; one who obtains the quality of Arhat in naivasamjnandsamjHdyatana cultivates only the qualities belonging to this bhumi.
150. a. Vydkhyd:yad vihtnam punar labhyate sammukhikriyate samsdrocitam na tad andgatam bhavyate bhdvitotsrstatvdt samsdre/ yad evdtra dhydndpramdnddy anucitam samsdre vihstam andsravdnugunam tatsammukhibhdve tajjdtiyam evandgatam vifispam bhdvyata ity deary? dariayati. It is some vulgar qualities, encountered in the course of transmigration, that one manifests, and that one abandons. These qualities are not the object of "cultivation," that is to say "are not possessed in a future state. " But when one actualizes the distinguished qualities, the Dhyanas, the Apramanas, etc. , rare in the course of transmigration, and which are favorable to the acquisition of pure qualities, one takes possession of them for the future. This is what Vasubandhu intends to say.
This explanation depends on Vasumitra's thesis that there is cultivation of some distinguished qualities, samsdrdnucatvdt,but not of others.
b. Hsiian-tsang: "The dharma previously acquired and then lost, and now acquired anew, is not 'cultivated* because of this, because one reacquired it without effort. One manifests the dharma not previously acquired with effort, and it is thus 'cultivated* in the future, because its force is great. Produced after having been acquired, it is not cultivated in the future, because its force is small, being produced without much effort. " This version is based on the explanation of Samghabhadra.
? Samghabhadra (in his Nydydnusdra, TD 29, p. 745? 8; see also his Prakaranasdsana, TD 29, p. 954c9, which does not exactly correspond) is quoted by the Vydkhyd: dcdryasamghabhadro'py etam evdrtham vydcaste/ labdhapurvam na bhavyate/ ? at pratilabdhavihinam punar labhyate na tad bhavyate/ arthad gamyate yad alabdhapurvam labhyate tad bhavyate/ yatndbhimukhikaranat/ apratiprasrabdho hi mdrgo yatnendbhi- mukhikriyata iti taddvedhabalatvdd andgato bhavandm gacchati/ pratilabdhapurvas tv ayatnena sarhmukhibhavati bhdvitapratifrabdhatvdt krtakrtyadattaphalatvdc ca vegahina iti tatsammukhibhdvdd andgato na bhdvyata iti/ yo'ndgato yatnena janyate sa bhdvyata ity abhiprdyah/
The Vydkhyd continues: tad evam satiyad uktam samvrtijn'dnam tdvad iti vistarena tad dryasamtdnapatitam eva grhyate.
That is to say: if this is the case, what is said of the cultivation of samvrtijHdna should also be understood of the samvrtijrldna of the Aryan. The Vydkhyd then mentions the opinion of Vasumitra, and the objection of the VaibhaSikas: samsdrdnucitatvdd iti dcdryavasumitrendtra likhitam/ atra kila vaibhdsikd dhuh/ naitad evam/ kutah/ yasmdd alabdham eva tad bhavati tyakyatvdt tasmdd bhdvitotsrstasydpi punarldbhe bhavaty eva bhavaneti/ katham tad apurvam bhavati ydvatdlabdhapurvam iti/ na hy evamvidham loke prasiddham iti/.
Finally, one can understand "what has not been obtained" (alabdhapurva) as what has not been obtained in this life: apare punar vydcaksate ekam janmedam abhikrtyoktam na janmdntaram/ yad vihinam asminn eva janmani punar labhyate na tad bhavyate

(see the note p. 505) and the Pali sources, Abhidhdnappadipikd and Jindlamkdra (Burnouf, Lotus, 649, Kern, Geschiedenis, i. 272, Milinda, 285).
The particularity of Yasbmitra's list is in the first terms: ndsti skhalitam ndsti ravitam ndsti dravatd; the Mahdvastu and the Mahdvyutpatti have: ndsti (s)khalitam ndsti ravitam ndsti musitasmrtitd; the Jindlamkdra gives: . . . natthi davd (commented upon as kicchdbhippdyena kiriyd, a bad reading for khidddbhippdyena), natthi ravd (commented upon as sahasd kiriyd). Note the close relationship with the glosses of Ya&omitra: dravatd = kriddbhiprdyatd, a = sahasd kriyd (=Tibetan ca ? ? , "outcry" = Chinese: "defect of the voice"). For dravatd, Mahdvastu-Mahdvyutpatti have, we would say musitasmrtitd (which has, perhaps a double use with the ninth declension: ndsti smrter hanih)t but Candra Das (p. 511) has a variant musitd or muditd, which suggests the idea of kridd.
Apratisamkhydyopeksa is an upeksd or indifference, which does not result from the consciousness, due, we would say, to apathy, not to wisdom (see vii. 8).

106. We can understand why a being in Arupyadhatu cannot manifest the dharmajndna which has for its object suffering, its arising, etc. of the sphere of Kamadhatu, but why are beings in Rupadhatu incapable of it? We have seen that a person manifests this jtldna by entering into the dhydnas (which are Rupadhatu) (vii. l4c). Some say: "Dharmajndna has for its end the detesting {vidunana) of Kamadhatu; now a person in Rupadhatu has abandoned Kamadhatu by the very fact that he has transmigrated to a sphere of detachment [from Kamadhatu]; therefore the dharmajfldna does not have to arise. The case of a person detached from Kamadhatu [and who has entered into a dhydna due to this detachment] is different: he can manifest the dharmajndna because his existence in Kamadhatu is not exhausted. "
Samghabhadra explains differently why dharmajndna can only be manifested by beings in Kamadhatu: tatsamdpattivyutthdnacittdndm kdmadhdtdv eva sadbhdvdt/ anuparivarta- kdiraydbhdvdd vd/ dharmajHdndnuparivartakasya hi iilasya kdmdvacardny eva bhutdny diraya dauhiUyasamutthdpakakleiaprdptivibandhakatvdt prdtipaksikatvdt/ tdni ca tatra na santUi dharmajtldnam kdmadhdtvdirayam eva: "Because it is only in Kamadhatu that the thoughts of departing from the absorption [in which one realizes dharmajndna] is possible; or rather because, in the two higher spheres, the elements {bhutas) which can serve as the support {diraya) of the type of morality (iila) which necessarily accompanies dharmajndna are missing. This morality is opposed to the kleias which produce immorality (dauhiilya); immorality exists only in Kamadhatu; the elements susceptible of supporting morality which are opposed to this therefore exist only in Kamadhatu.

108. This preamble is missing in Paramartha.
109. According to Hsuan-tsang. Paramartha literally translates his original which is rendered in Tibetan by: chos bcu dag ni sbyar bar bya: "Ten dharmas should by placed in relationship", and he adds the Bhusya: "In order to determine the object of the jndnas, one should establish the relationship of the ten jndnas with the ten types of dharma. What are these ten types of dharmas} . . . "

111. Marge dharmajndna bears on the Path; the morality which is andsravasarhvara, that is to say rupa (iv. l3c) forms part of the Path.
112. Hsiian-tsang: Is there a moment of knowledge which grasps all the dharmas for its object?
This appears to be the beginning of the discussion of Vibhdsd, TD 27, p. 43a2, quoted by Saeki: "Is there ? jndna which knows all the dharmas? No. What is it that the jndna, which knows that all the dharmas are not an dtman, does not know? It does not know itself; it does not know the dharmas which are associated with it or which coexist with it. By saying that it does not know itself, one refutes the thesis of the Mahasamghikas; by saying that it does not know the dharmas associated with it, one refutes the thesis of the Dharmaguptas (fa-mi-pu ? ? ? )'> by saying that it does not know the dharmas which coexist with it, one refutes the thesis of the Mahisasakas; by saying that jndna knows, one refutes the thesis of the Vatsiputriyas [which attribute consciousness to the Pudgala? ]. "
Compare Kathdvatthu, v. 9, where the Andhakas quote a text: sabbasankhdresu antccat? dipphesu tarn pi ndnam aniccato dippham hoti. The Vyakhyd quotes the Sutra: ihdsmdkam bho gautama upasthdnasdldydm samnisanndndm samnipatitdndm evamrupo'natardkatha- samuddharo'bhut/ sramanogautamah kilaivam aha/ ndstisa kascic chramano vdbrdhmano vdyah sakrt sarvarh jdniydt sarvam pasyed iti/ tathyam idarh bho gautama/.
113. Bodhicaryavatara, ix. 18: na cchinatti yathdtmdnam asidhard tathd manah. This is a common position in Indian philosophy; nevertheless the Sautrantika-Vijnanavadins say that the lamp illumines itself. By a curious contradiction, the Vaibhasikas who deny that the mind knows itself, admit that sensation (vedand) is felt not by another sensation, but by the very fact that it is present (iv. 49).
114. Paramartha omits the last phrase ("If it were otherwise . . . ") and translates: "When it is a jndna in Kamadhatu it is a prajfid of hearing and reflection; when it is a jndna in Rupadhatu, it is only a prajnd of hearing, not of meditation, for this last type of prajnd always has a determined sphere for its object. "
Vasubandhu follows the Samyuktdbhidharma-hrdaya, TD 28, p. 953c21: "This jndna is a prajnd of hearing, and reflection, but not of meditation; for the prajfid of absorption has a delimited object. "

According to Yasbmitra, a faithful interpreter of Vasubandhu who is, on this point,
? approved of by Samghabhadra, it is solely through a prajn~d of meditation (bhdvand) that one obtains detachment (vairdgya). The prajfid of hearing and reflection, which is in Kumadhatu, cannot bear on the dharmas of all the spheres: it is not enough to become disgusted with it: the prajnd of bhdvand is more powerful (iv. l23c). Based on this, Vasubandhu concludes that the universal consciousness of "the absence of self" of the dharmas belongs to Kamadhatu, for if it belonged to Rupadhatu (that is to say arising from bhdvand, and being obtained in the dhyanas) it would produce detachment from all of the spheres. Samghabhadra contests this reasoning, for the prajnd cultivated in dhyanas (impure prajnd, since it is a samvrtijndna) never includes disgust for the higher sphere to which it wishes to deliver itself (vi. 49)
Let us note here that Hsuan-tsang translates the two pddas 18c-d (TD 29, p. 138a22) by three pddas: "Samvrtijndna, by excluding its group, together has all the dharmas for its object, by comprehending them under the aspect of non-self", and he adds a fourth pdda: "it arises from hearing and reflection. "
Samghabhadra, in his second treatise, the Prakaranasdsana (TD 29, p. 952al0) corrects the kdrikds where Vasubandhu departs from correct Vaibhasika doctrine; the version of Hsuan-tsang (p. 138a23) gives, in the fourth pdda: "It arises from hearing, reflection and meditation. " Samghabhadra thinks in fact (in his first treatise, the Nydydnusdra, TD 29,p. 742cl8 and following): "This jndna is only in Kamadhatu and Rupadhatu, but not in Arupyadhatu . . . It is a prajfid of hearing, reflection, and meditation (bhdvand): for these three prajnas are capable of having all the dharmas for their object with the exclusion of themselves and their group. It is true that the Sautrantika (=Vasubandhu) says: 'This jndna is not a prajnd of meditation . . . ' But this is false. In our system the prajnd of meditation of the sphere of the dhydna takes for its object the sphere in which it is found, namely, the higher sphere; it produces disgust with respect to the lower sphere, and joy with respect to the higher sphere: thus it does not produce detachment with respect to the higher sphere. The argument of the Sautrantika is therefore null and void. "
It appears that, according to what Yasomitra says here, we should consider as viiesamdrga (vi. 65) the disgust (vidusana) which includes [the qualities, guna, namely] aiubhd (vi. 9), the apramdnas (viii. 29) and the abhibhvdyatanas (viii. 35a). All these qualities are visesa (v. 10a, trans, p. 785); they are acquired through prayoga, dnantarya, vimuktimdrga, and are prolongued in visesamdrga (vi. 65); see vii. 25d.
115. Hsiian-tsang: In the states or moments which do not include any augmentation of the number ofjndnas (3rd, 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 15th moments of abhisamaya), he possesses the jndnas of the last previous moment which does include augmentation. Therefore, at the beginning of bhdvandmdrga (16th moment), he necessarily possesses seven jndnas.
116. This last phrase has been added by Hsiian-tsang.
117. Vydkhyd: iha dvividhd bhdvanddhikrtdpratilambhabhdvand nisevanabhdvand ca/ pratilambhabhdvand prdptitah/ nisevanabhdvand sammukhibhdvatah.
"Cultivation" is understood here as the acquisition or taking possession, and manifestation. (See vii. 27).
118. Yathotpanndni bhdvyante = ydni ydny utpanndni tdni tdni bhdvyante (bhdvyante = bhdvandm gacchanti). Bhdvyante signifies "are acquired", since it refers to future ksdntis and jndnas.

122. Darsanamdrga is all pure (andsrava) and the ascetic who cultivates it does not produce a samvrtijfiana in the course of his practice. But he takes possession in moments 4,8, and 12 of the samvrtijfidna relative to each Truth: leaving the Path of Seeing, he possesses, and will be able to manifest, a conventional, worldly (sdmrrta, laukika) consciousness of the Truths, which is called prsphalabdha, see vii. 2b.
123. We have seen above (vii. 7, note 25) that the "patiences" produced in the course of abhisamaya are called dbhisamaydntika.

124. But all persons, in the course of samsdra, have understood Suffering, its Arising and its Extinction by the worldly path (Vydkhyd).
125. In fact Arising should again be abandoned by the Seeing of Extinction and the Path, and again by the Path of Meditation, whereas all Suffering is perfectly known (parijndta) by the Seeing of Suffering. But the Arising which should be abandoned by the Seeing of Arising is found to be already abandoned. (Paramartha's translation).

We understand by this that, by realizing these Abhijnas, one does not take possession of the same future Abhifiuas.
142.
The three Abhijnas are rddhi, purvenivdsa and cetahparydya.
143- An ascetic detaches himself from Kamadhatu by a worldly path which has for its support {samniirayena, that is to say "is cultivated in") anagamya (introductory stage of the First Dhyana) and, through this detachment, he obtains the First Dhyana; at the moment of the ninth vimuktimdrga of this detachment, he cultivates a samvrtijfidna of the sphere of the anagamya or of the sphere of the First Dhyana; and so on until: he detaches himself from dkincanydyatana through the worldly path practiced in the sdmantaka (preparatory) stage of naivasamjfidnasamjHdyatana, he obtains a samvrtijfidna of the sphere of the sdmantaka or of the sphere of the naivasamjndnasamjndyatana. Samvrtijfidna is cultivated under the same conditions when the ascetic detaches himself from Kamadhatu through the path cultivated in pure {andsrava) anagamya.
But if the ascetic obtains the first pure dhyana by practicing the pure path in the First Dhyana, the samvrtijfidna that he obtains is of the sphere of the sdmantaka of the Second Dhyana which is opposed to the first. . . to the ninth category of the defilements {kleias) of the First Dhyana--for this is the first time that this ascetic obtains the first pure dhyana. And, in the ninth vimuktimdrga of the path by which he obtains the first pure dhyana, he cultivates, in the future, a samvrtijfidna of the second dhyana {Vydkhyd).
144. An ascetic takes his support from the second pure dhyana and, in this manner, detaches himself in the Third Dhyana: the purejndna which is cultivated is of the sphere of the Path, that is to say of the Second Dhyana; it is moreover in the ninth vimuktimdrga of detachment, of the sphere in which he detaches himself, namely the Third Dhyana; it is also of a lower sphere, namely of the First Dhyana, of anagamya. For it happens that the preparatory path is of a lower sphere: the jndna of a lower sphere will therefore be able to be cultivated.
But when an ascetic detaches himself from the Second Dhyana by taking as his support the sdmantaka of the Third Dhyana, neither in the dnantarya nor in the vimukti paths can a pure jfidna of the sphere of the sdmantaka be cultivated: in fact there is no pure jfidna in this sdmantaka (viii. 22a). The cultivated jndna will be inferior to the Path: of the Second Dhyana, of dhydndntara, of the First Dhyana, or of anagamya.
145. Hsuan-tsang: "Only in the first ksayajnana does he cultivate all of the impure qualities of the nine spheres. " With the gloss: "In the first ksayajfidna, that is to say in the ninth vimuktimdrga of detachment from Bhavagra, and in the ninth vimuktimdrga of the five perfecting of the faculties" {TD 29, p. 139c25).

The meaning is that, at the moment of ksayajndna, there is produced the possession of
all the qualities to a great degree of excellence.
148. Compare the first Cakravartin King, Ko/a, iii. 96c.
149- Hsiian-tsang (p. 139cl6) adds a pdda: "Arisen above he does not cultivate the lower":, a thesis developed in the Vydkhyd: When one obtains the quality of Arhat (that is to say ksayajndna) in Kamadhatu, the asubhas, etc. , of the Three Dhatus are "cultivated" {bhavandm gacchanti); when one obtains the quality of Arhat in Rupadhatu, or in Arupyadhatu, the same qualities are cultivated belonging to these Dhatus. The same with respect to the different bhumis of these Dhatus; one who obtains the quality of Arhat in naivasamjnandsamjHdyatana cultivates only the qualities belonging to this bhumi.

Vydkhyd:yad vihtnam punar labhyate sammukhikriyate samsdrocitam na tad andgatam bhavyate bhdvitotsrstatvdt samsdre/ yad evdtra dhydndpramdnddy anucitam samsdre vihstam andsravdnugunam tatsammukhibhdve tajjdtiyam evandgatam vifispam bhdvyata ity deary? dariayati. It is some vulgar qualities, encountered in the course of transmigration, that one manifests, and that one abandons. These qualities are not the object of "cultivation," that is to say "are not possessed in a future state. " But when one actualizes the distinguished qualities, the Dhyanas, the Apramanas, etc. , rare in the course of transmigration, and which are favorable to the acquisition of pure qualities, one takes possession of them for the future. This is what Vasubandhu intends to say.
This explanation depends on Vasumitra's thesis that there is cultivation of some distinguished qualities, samsdrdnucatvdt,but not of others.
b. Hsiian-tsang: "The dharma previously acquired and then lost, and now acquired anew, is not 'cultivated* because of this, because one reacquired it without effort. One manifests the dharma not previously acquired with effort, and it is thus 'cultivated* in the future, because its force is great. Produced after having been acquired, it is not cultivated in the future, because its force is small, being produced without much effort. " This version is based on the explanation of Samghabhadra.
? Samghabhadra (in his Nydydnusdra, TD 29, p. 745? 8; see also his Prakaranasdsana, TD 29, p. 954c9, which does not exactly correspond) is quoted by the Vydkhyd: dcdryasamghabhadro'py etam evdrtham vydcaste/ labdhapurvam na bhavyate/ ? at pratilabdhavihinam punar labhyate na tad bhavyate/ arthad gamyate yad alabdhapurvam labhyate tad bhavyate/ yatndbhimukhikaranat/ apratiprasrabdho hi mdrgo yatnendbhi- mukhikriyata iti taddvedhabalatvdd andgato bhavandm gacchati/ pratilabdhapurvas tv ayatnena sarhmukhibhavati bhdvitapratifrabdhatvdt krtakrtyadattaphalatvdc ca vegahina iti tatsammukhibhdvdd andgato na bhdvyata iti/ yo'ndgato yatnena janyate sa bhdvyata ity abhiprdyah/
The Vydkhyd continues: tad evam satiyad uktam samvrtijn'dnam tdvad iti vistarena tad dryasamtdnapatitam eva grhyate.
That is to say: if this is the case, what is said of the cultivation of samvrtijHdna should also be understood of the samvrtijrldna of the Aryan. The Vydkhyd then mentions the opinion of Vasumitra, and the objection of the VaibhaSikas: samsdrdnucitatvdd iti dcdryavasumitrendtra likhitam/ atra kila vaibhdsikd dhuh/ naitad evam/ kutah/ yasmdd alabdham eva tad bhavati tyakyatvdt tasmdd bhdvitotsrstasydpi punarldbhe bhavaty eva bhavaneti/ katham tad apurvam bhavati ydvatdlabdhapurvam iti/ na hy evamvidham loke prasiddham iti/.
Finally, one can understand "what has not been obtained" (alabdhapurva) as what has not been obtained in this life: apare punar vydcaksate ekam janmedam abhikrtyoktam na janmdntaram/ yad vihinam asminn eva janmani punar labhyate na tad bhavyate

160. According to Hsuan-tsang. The original has: We have explained in general that the Arhats, whoever they are, take possession of the "qualities" at the moment when they produce the "consciousness of the destruction of the dsravas. " (vii. 26c) There are eighteen qualities which belong to the Buddha . . .
Kathdvatthu, iii. 1-2: the "forces" do not belong to the Buddha (thesis of the Andhakas).
Patisambhiddmagga, i. 7, sixty-three ndnas of which six belong to the Buddha; Milinda, 285.
161. On dvenika, the definition of avidyd dveniki (Vydkhyd, ad v. 12, 14, ii. 29) which is quoted and translated by Burnouf, Lotus 648: samparko venir ity ucyate/ na venir avenih prthagbhdva ity arthah/ evam hy uktam avenir bhagavdn avenir bhiksusamgha iti pfthag bhagavdn pfthag bhiksusamgha ity abhiprdyah/ avenya caraty dveniki ndnydnuiayasahacd- rinity arthah. Anguttara, v. 74. The Sarhgha does not divide . . . na dveni kammdni karonti no dveni pdtimokkham uddisanti {-na prthak karmdni. . . )
There are five qualities which belong exclusively to women {dveniya and dvenika), Divya, 2. 3, 98. 22, etc. ; Burnouf, Introduction, 169.
The good that I have done is my dveniya riches, Jdtaka, iv. 358.
162. a. This is the list of Divya, 182. 20, 268. 4.
b. Yasbmitra says: Such is the doctrine of the Vaibhasikas. Some other masters admit
eighteen dvenikas distinct from these, namely: ndsti tathdgatasya skhalitam, ndsti ravitam (-sahasd kriyd), ndsti dravatd (=kriddbhiprdyatd), ndsti ndndtvasamjnd (-sukhaduhkhd- duhkhdsukhesu visayesu rdgadvesamohato ndndtvasamjnd), nasty avydkftamanas, nasty apratisamkhydyopeksd, nasty atitesu pratihatam jn'dnadars'anam, nasty andgatesu pratihatam jfidnadarsanam, ndsti pratyutpannesu pratihatam jndnddarsanam, sarvam kdyakarma jn~dndnuparivarti, sarvam vdkkarma jh~dndnuparivarti, sarvam manaskarma
jridndnuparivarti, ndsti chandahdnih, ndsti viryahdnih, ndsti smrtihdnih, ndsti samddhihdnih,
? 1196 Chapter Seven
ndsti prajndhanih, ndsti vimuktijfldnadarianahdnih. This contradicts iv. 12, vi. 59.
This list, with some close variants, is found in Mahdvyutpatti, 9 (an extract, according to Wogihara, from the Tsa-chi ? ? ? f Sthiramati) which is quoted here by the Japanese editor of the ? ? fa. We will find in Madhyamakdvatdra (vi. 213, p. 322-337) a commentary extracted from the Ddraniharapariprcchd. Very close too are the lists of Mahdvastu, i. 160
(see the note p. 505) and the Pali sources, Abhidhdnappadipikd and Jindlamkdra (Burnouf, Lotus, 649, Kern, Geschiedenis, i. 272, Milinda, 285).
The particularity of Yasbmitra's list is in the first terms: ndsti skhalitam ndsti ravitam ndsti dravatd; the Mahdvastu and the Mahdvyutpatti have: ndsti (s)khalitam ndsti ravitam ndsti musitasmrtitd; the Jindlamkdra gives: . . . natthi davd (commented upon as kicchdbhippdyena kiriyd, a bad reading for khidddbhippdyena), natthi ravd (commented upon as sahasd kiriyd). Note the close relationship with the glosses of Ya&omitra: dravatd = kriddbhiprdyatd, a = sahasd kriyd (=Tibetan ca ? ? , "outcry" = Chinese: "defect of the voice"). For dravatd, Mahdvastu-Mahdvyutpatti have, we would say musitasmrtitd (which has, perhaps a double use with the ninth declension: ndsti smrter hanih)t but Candra Das (p. 511) has a variant musitd or muditd, which suggests the idea of kridd.
Apratisamkhydyopeksa is an upeksd or indifference, which does not result from the consciousness, due, we would say, to apathy, not to wisdom (see vii. 8).
? The Bodhisattvabhumi (iii. 4) admits 140 dvenikas (see Museon, 1911,170): 32 and 80 marks, 4 "omniform" (sarvdkdra) purities, 10 balas, 4 vaiiaradyas, 3 smrtyupasthdnas, 3 draksanas (compare the 4 draksyas of Mahdvyutpatti, 12), mahdkarund, asampramosadhar- matd, vdsandsamudghdta, sarvdkdravarajfidna (compare sarvathdjHdna, Ko/a, vii. p. 1146).
d. The dvenikas of the Bodhisattva, Mahdvyutpatti, 29, and Madhyamakdvatdra, vi. 212.
163. Lotus, 343, 781, Spence Hardy, Manual, 380 and other works quoted in Dharmasam- graha, p. 51; Mahdvyutpatti, 7 (according to the Yogasdstra).
Pali list in the Jindlamkdra of Buddharaksita; the ancient "Sanskrit" source is the Mahdvastu, i. 159 (a valuable commentary by the editor, p. 502-505); on the other hand, Papisambhidd, ii. 174, Vibhanga, 335.
The Buddha is daiabala, Mahdvagga, i. 22. 13; "Dasabala" is the title of a vagga of the Samyutta; see however the observations of Rhys Davids, Milinda, ii. 134. the ten balas of the Bodhisattva, Mahdvyutpatti, 26.
The balas are explained, according to the Dhdranisvarapariprcchd in the Madhyamakd- vatdra, Tibetan translation, p. 369-395.
If the balas belong to the Sravakas; if the first nine balas are pure or dryan "knowledges", Kathdvatthu, iii. 1-2.
164. A different list in the smaller Vyutpatti, 5 (Minayev, 1887). The Vydkhyd quotes the Sutra: das'dyusmantas tathdgatabaldni/ katamdni daia/ ihdyusmantas tathdgatah sthdnarh ca sthdnato yathdbhutam prajdndti/ asthdnam cdsthdnatah/ idam prathamam tathdgatabalam
