Commentary: From "Now taking..." downward concludes into the two gates of the One Mind. Because previously, when discussing arising, it had to be analyzed within the gate of production and cessation; now, when treating the cessation of delusion, the ultimate destination must merge into the One Mind. If this were not so, then the meaning of production and cessation would never enter the One Mind, which is why it must be matched and subsumed. The essence is wisdom; the marks are ignorance. Regarding "non-enlightenment and so forth": this is identical in meaning to the previously discussed mark of purity of wisdom in ultimate enlightenment, the mirror of emergence from dharmas, and so forth. Actualized and original [enlightenment] are non-dual; only the One Mind remains. Hence the sūtra states: "Production and cessation having ceased, quiescent cessation appears before one." Previously, deluded about the One Mind, nine marks were formed; now, extinguishing the nine marks, one returns to the One Mind. There is nothing that does not flow forth from the dharmadhātu, and nothing that does not return to this dharmadhātu.
