### [2.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1708.2.89)

釋曰：第三、正辨二道差別相。然釋此文，諸說不同。一云：無明盡相為金剛盡相者，顯無間道相。據實一切煩惱皆盡；就根本說，是故但言無明盡相，即用此相為金剛盡相。解脫道中已過無明盡相，故言無相為薩婆若。若依《本記》，無明盡相為金剛者，顯無間道相，謂於此位有涉相盡。就根本說，故言無明盡相為金剛盡相。無相為薩婆若者，顯解脫道。言盡相等者，無間道時惑相雖盡，猶有境智異相，故不言無相；於此位中盡無明相，亦無境智異相，故盡相無相為薩婆若。雖有兩釋，且依後釋。

> Explanation: Third, directly discerning the characteristics of the distinction between the two paths. However, in explaining this passage, various accounts differ. One says: "The characteristic of the exhaustion of ignorance constitutes the vajra-exhaustion characteristic" reveals the characteristic of the path of uninterrupted activity. In reality, all afflictions are exhausted; speaking in terms of the fundamental, it is therefore only called the characteristic of the exhaustion of ignorance, and this very characteristic is taken as the vajra-exhaustion characteristic. In the path of liberation, one has already surpassed the characteristic of the exhaustion of ignorance; hence it says "the signless constitutes sarvajña." If relying on the Original Commentary: "The characteristic of the exhaustion of ignorance constitutes vajra" reveals the characteristic of the path of uninterrupted activity, meaning that at this stage all involved characteristics are exhausted. Speaking in terms of the fundamental, it is therefore called the characteristic of the exhaustion of ignorance constituting the vajra-exhaustion characteristic. "The signless constitutes sarvajña" reveals the path of liberation. As for saying "the exhaustion characteristic," etc.: at the time of the path of uninterrupted activity, although the characteristics of delusion are exhausted, there are still distinct characteristics of realm and wisdom, so it is not called signless; in this stage, the characteristics of ignorance are exhausted and there are also no distinct characteristics of realm and wisdom, so the exhaustion of characteristics and signlessness constitute sarvajña. Although there are two explanations, for now we follow the latter.
