Avidyā is the cause, and the brightened object is the condition; mutually conditioning one another, they reach the state of neither identity nor difference. Within this single mark, faculties and dusts are differentiated. Once faculties and dusts are paired, consciousness arises within them. The three—faculty, realm, and consciousness—constitute the nature of karma, each drawing in its own and not operating upon other conditions; hence it is said, "does not exceed," and so forth. That is, from the previously brightened object the six dusts are differentiated, and from the previous false awakening hearing, seeing, and so forth are opened up; this is why it was previously said that awakened brightness is the fault.
