Question: "Why was the earlier desire to obtain the form body (*rūpakāya*) called arrogance, while now, in the text below, the desire to obtain the dharmakāya is not called arrogance?" Answer: "Regarding the form body as the true body is completely contrary to principle, and is therefore called arrogance; desiring to obtain the dharmakāya does not contravene principle. Although doubts arose due to the previous explanation, it is not completely contrary to principle, so it is not given the name of arrogance. For this reason, the text below 'desiring to obtain the form body' and so forth is not called 'abandoning obstacles', but is merely called 'desiring to obtain'; since doubt is not an ultimate obstacle, desiring to obtain the form body is said to be a dharma of the obstacle of arrogance. Separated by [the fact that] desiring to obtain the dharmakāya is not a dharma of the obstacle of arrogance, it is not given the name of 'abandoning obstacles'."
