26.183
The passage from “The commentary says” up to “presently cultivates two knowledges” explains the first moment of the sixteenth [moment], which is the path of cultivation. There are two kinds of cultivation: cultivation through activity (prayoga-bhāvanā) and cultivation through acquisition (prāptis-bhāvanā). “Activity” means present operation; “acquisition” means future cultivation. In the first moment of the path of cultivation, cultivation through activity comprises two knowledges, namely the knowledge of the path and the subsequent knowledge. Their substance is one, though there are two designations. Both the gradual and the leaping [approaches] are identical regarding these two. As for future cultivation, the two states are different.
