8.35

The meaning is: The afflictions of the first six grades are coarse and easy to know, whereas the afflictions of the latter three grades are subtle and difficult to comprehend. Having severed the preceding upper and intermediate grades of afflictions, not knowing that the lower grades of afflictions remain, one gives rise to presumption, supposing that all nine grades have been exhausted and that one has cultivated and realized the fundamental concentration. Now, in order to abandon this presumption, it speaks of abandoning presumption after severing the intermediate grades of afflictions, rather than speaking of abandoning it after the upper grades.
