Answer: Mundane knowledge is of two kinds: first, the knowledge of the six aspects; second, the knowledge of noble practice. The Abhidharma is based on the knowledge of noble practice, hence it takes the first seven sufferings as its object; this treatise is based on the knowledge of the six aspects, hence it takes coarse and tranquil as its object, so there is no contradiction in meaning. Furthermore, that treatise establishes the truth of suffering based on its prominent portion, hence it does not take the suffering of suffering and the suffering of change, but establishes three truths based on their entirety, and thus speaks of the cessation of all afflictions and karma and their antidotes as the three truths; whereas the text of this treatise establishes the truth of suffering based on its entirety and establishes the three truths based on their prominent portions.
