24.24
From here on, generally explaining the limbs of dependent origination: From 'again, in order to truly...' to 'should be known as before': it means contemplating the intrinsic nature of dependent origination, the causes and conditions of dependent origination, the causes and conditions of defilement, the causes and conditions of purification, and purification; these are the five limbs. 'Furthermore, the brief general meaning of this dependent origination': 'relying on the cycle of phenomenal turning, all suffering having a cause' is precisely the cause and condition of cyclic flow. 'Furthermore, relying on the cycle of cessation, all taintless phenomena having a cause' refers to the phenomena of knowledge and abandonment in the quiescent portion of dependent origination. 'Furthermore, the basis for those taints, the various feelings produced by contact with ignorance': feelings produced by contact with ignorance serve as the basis for craving and grasping. 'Furthermore, phenomena having causes' up to 'only have bases and conditions': because an arhat has abandoned the causal and conditional phenomena of afflictions, they only possess the six bases and six conditions.
