Below, the commentary has two parts: first, explaining "not associated with the mind." This clarifies that the essence of avidyā is subtle upon its initial arising, and has not yet bifurcated into the association of the primary mind and mental factors, or mind and object. Furthermore, this avidyā is a delusion of the entire nature; therefore the word "mind" is added. In addition, it is also possible that this delusion is a dharma that is not associated with the true mind, as said before: "from the beginningless past, it has not been associated with deluded defilement." Now, because of not knowing truly as it is, it arises suddenly; this is said to be fundamental avidyā. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.22) - [Next: 12.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.24) - [Up: 12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.12.23) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.23) · Pramāṇa
