A detailed examination states: The intent of the Commentary was not to say that the training in concentration mentioned exclusively takes the uncontaminated, but merely to reveal that the four concentrations cited in the Treatise are not the characteristics prior to the stages. Furthermore, the two vehicles' not knowing applies generally to contaminated and uncontaminated; here, it merely uses the principle of their not knowing to prove the concentration is uncontaminated, not that they know everything that is contaminated. Moreover, according to the Mahāyānasaṃgraha's explanation of the differences in concentration, the latter four differences are antidote, competence, inducement, and activity; if not uncontaminated, how could it have this capacity? Hence we know that that treatise relies on uncontaminated concentration; how could the concentration cited here be established differently from that? Furthermore, each of the three trainings is explained according to one perspective; why must one demand that they be uniform?
