In the Commentary, "'Buddha' means awakening to this profound wondrousness," also has two meanings: first, the one who awakens. "Buddha" is Sanskrit, which here translates as "Awakened One." Second, that which is awakened to, namely the "Great, Standard, and Broad" above, because this is the profound and wondrous realm. Saying "awakening to this profound wondrousness," "this" refers to this: namely, the "Great, Standard, and Broad" above. If explained separately: awakening to the function above is awakening to conventional truth; awakening to the essence above is awakening to ultimate truth; awakening to the characteristic above is awakening to the Middle Way. The three truths interfuse, and the three awakenings are unimpeded, constituting wondrous awakening.
