The Commentary states: The conventional wisdom of the eighth consciousness is called the Great Mirror [Wisdom], which manifests the bliss of Dharma, the śrāvakas, the eight classes of beings, and the adorned bodhimaṇḍa, which are the manifested śrāvakas and so forth. The equality wisdom of the seventh consciousness, up to the all-accomplishing wisdom, all have the capacity to manifest; therefore, the four wisdoms of the Buddha all possess the two marks. Therefore the treatise says that it manifests bodies, lands, and so forth like a mirror, etc. Do not think that the remaining wisdoms all share this simile; it is only that in the sense of being able to manifest marks they can be identical. This proves that the undefiled state possesses a nimittabhāga.
