1.64

The commentary states: In the tenth [mind], the mind of wisdom, "producing the mind of wisdom-view" introduces the chapter heading. Entanglements are called fetters, and latencies are called afflictions, because they are the root of all suffering. "Adaptive forbearance" means the cognitive object accords with wisdom. "The nature of wisdom produces light after light" means it illuminates at each turn. "A single flame clearly illuminates" means a single substance has many functions. "Seeing emptiness without grasping" means cognizing emptiness without grasping. Concluding in general, it says "its wisdom and skillful means," which means because the practice of wisdom is skillful, it can generate the ten minds of nourishment of this rank. Because these minds enter the principle of emptiness and give rise to the path of emptiness, they multifariously cultivate wisdom and compassion, capable of serving as the cause for arousing the noble mind of non-arising.
