23.16

[On the *Śāstra*’s:] “The Vaibhāṣikas [say] … held by the power of a peg,” is the answer. Wisdom is sustained by mindfulness, so wisdom is called the application of mindfulness; here the effect, wisdom, takes its name from the cause, mindfulness. Thus the *Nyāyānusāra* says: “Why is it that the abiding of wisdom depends on the power of mindfulness? Because in one who possesses mindfulness, wisdom becomes increasingly luminous.”
