8.18

The Commentary states: "However, the Nirvāṇa relies on the nature of principle..." and below; this is the second part, discerning its validity. The Nirvāṇa explains that having a mind leads to buddhahood; having a mind does not necessarily mean having practice. Since all attain buddhahood, it is clearly explained with respect to the nature of principle. Why, then, speak of entering quiescence? Those who enter quiescence definitely do not attain buddhahood, while those with a mind definitely will attain buddhahood—how could [these two views] complement each other?
