Next, explaining the name and meaning of manas. Question: "If that manas […] how is it established?" The meaning of the question: having previously explained manas as that which is conjoined with the four afflictions and mentally cogitates the characteristic of a self, since the supramundane manas lacks the four afflictions and, being non-conceptual, also does not cogitate a self, how is it called manas ("cogitation")?
