"The mind's discrimination" refers to the substance of the primary minds of the first seven consciousnesses. "The discrimination of defilement and purity" refers to the substance of the associated mental factors. This is because both the primary minds and mental factors take false discrimination as their intrinsic nature. "Differentiated" means that each arises in actual activity and each has its own substance. "The mark of knowing is identical" means that the seeing divisions, as that which cognizes, blend together in resemblance of oneness. "The mark of the objective referent is identical" means that the substantial basis and the reflected image of the objective division, as that which is cognized, are mutually similar.
