22.16

Regarding the Commentary's 'However, the above ten powers' and so forth: third, examining and analyzing them again through various approaches. Within this there are two parts: first, matching them with the six types of compound analysis; second, revealing their efficacy. In the former: first, in the general name, if one merely says 'cognitive power,' it is a karmadhāraya compound; if one says 'ten powers,' it is a dvigu compound. Second, from 'here past lives' onward, matching the specific names: past lives is called proximal because cognition is close to mindfulness. The statement that past lives is also a tatpuruṣa compound is because it is the subsequent mindfulness of the cognitive object of past lives. Second, from 'however, these ten powers' onward, distinguishing their efficacy, which can be understood. The brief meaning of the ten powers has also been fully explained; to cite further would risk obscuring the profound principle.
