9.22

Question: The eight hindrances and eight pāramitās are understandable from the text. How do arrogance corresponding to vows and afflictions corresponding to powers work in meaning? Answer: Arrogance looks down upon others; if one does not produce vows, how can one act as a bridge for others to tread upon? If one does not transform afflictions, how can one harmonize one's light, remain untainted, and be constantly pure?
