2.147

As for "their essential nature has no difference," both are one among the particular-object [mental factors]. Because the former three kinds of knowledge are all named wisdom, knowledge and wisdom are both like a vajra. Therefore the Satyakanirgrantha Sūtra says: "Śakra's vajra jewel can destroy the asuras; knowledge crushes the mountain of afflictions, and its ability to destroy is also like this." The Anityatā Sūtra says: "The vajra knowledge-pestle crushes the mountain of heresy, forever severing beginningless mutual entanglements."
