This explains the defiled arrogance mentioned above. As the *Śrīmālādevī-sūtra* says, "The sands of the Ganges of afflictions outside the three realms are called afflictions above the supreme, afflictions above contemplation, and so forth." Here, the afflictions within samādhi are the afflictions above proper absorption in the *Śrīmālādevī-sūtra*. Afflictions within Mahāyāna liberation are afflictions above the fruit; afflictions of view should be afflictions above wisdom. "And so forth" includes all the sands of the Ganges of afflictions.
