"As for difference..." below: Third, the mark of difference. As for "This resides in," etc.: these two are the coarse among the coarse, belonging to the phenomenon-consciousness. As for "Avidyā," etc.: the delusion is coarse and manifest, capable of giving rise to the bodily and vocal distinctions of greed, anger, and so forth, and is therefore named the mark of difference. Below "The subsequent text..." categorizes and subsumes. "The middle two" are the mark of grasping and the mark of conceptualizing names. "The first one" is the defilement corresponding to attachment. Because two marks are combined into one defilement, the mental consciousness is the consciousness of the mind (manovijñāna).
