瑜伽論記 2.8

2.8

The first says: Dharmapāla adopts the second explanation as the correct view, yet without the two errors. The inferior conforms to the superior; being free from defilement is named [the stage] without reflection and so forth, while all superior [states] are [relatively] inferior, so that when not yet free they are not [the stage] without reflection and so forth; hence there is not the first error. Furthermore, it is said that there are two times in freedom from desire, namely the time of preparatory application and the time of actual freedom. Here, speaking of freedom from desire is based on preparatory application, so one first becomes free from the desire for investigation and later free from the desire for reflection; hence there is not the latter error.
