46.18

Regarding the commentary's "then the eleventh is severing one's own doubts": if based on Asabhāva and Vasubandhu, the eleventh is in both cases severing others' doubts; now, conforming to Śīlabhadra, this statement is made.

Regarding the commentary's "Due to the above skillful distinct knowledge..." below: the transition. The above is the commentary picking up what preceded to introduce what follows; Asabhāva merely says, "That is, in the midst of the wrong and right actions of the sentient beings to be converted, the signs that should be manifested cannot be conceptualized." The meaning is in the text.

Regarding the commentary's "Yet Asabhāva says..." below: reconciling with the explanatory treatise. Asabhāva fully states: "It means, in accordance with the various resolute intentions of sentient beings, manifesting a golden color and so forth; although manifesting this body, it is without conceptualization, like a maṇi jewel and so forth, as well as flutes and pipes, as explained at length in that *Tathāgataguhya-sūtra*."

Explanation: Therefore, when the commentary determines it, it conforms to the present text.

Regarding the commentary's "Gopā observing the Buddha's pores": that is the seventy-fifth fascicle of the sūtra.
