Next, the second section generally reveals perfuming. As the treatise states: 'As for the meaning of perfuming: just as clothes have no fragrance, but perfuming them causes them to have it, the mind is also like this. In the true there is no defilement, but deluded perfuming causes it to have it; in the deluded there is no purity, but true perfuming causes it to have it. Therefore, within that delusion, skillful antidotal practices are able to arise.' Such is the treatise's explanation (this completes the second section).
