Furthermore, the treatise states: "If on the path of cultivation, there is nothing not yet known; but merely for the sake of eliminating the remaining dormant defilements (anuśaya), one repeatedly comes to know regarding those very objects; therefore, that is called 'one who has come to know'." The explanation states: From the subsequent knowledge of the path (mārge 'nvayajñāna) onwards up to the vajra-like concentration (vajropamasamādhi), it is collectively called the path of cultivation. If on the path of cultivation, the eight higher and lower truths have already all been known completely, and there is nothing not yet known; but merely for the sake of eliminating the dormant defilements that are delusions regarding concrete things—namely the four dormant defilements of craving, hostility, delusion, and conceit—one repeatedly gives rise to knowledge that knows regarding the objects of the four noble truths, and this is called "one who has come to know"; therefore, practitioners who possess that path of cultivation are called "those who have come to know", because they know what has already been known.
