2.212

This explains the first phrase above, taking the mind as within and objects as without. "Solitary reflection" refers to illumination that is non-dual. "The reality of the myriad dharmas": "reality" means real truth, because it is the dharmatā of all dharmas. Also, emptiness is called reality, because what arises from conditions is empty of self-nature. As stated earlier, "dharmatā, nature-emptiness, and concurrence of conditions are a single meaning," and so forth. Above, mind and object were listed. From "the myriad dharmas" onward, it clarifies wisdom realizing principle, that only profound prajñā can illuminate that the skandhas and so forth are all empty. From "Within and without" onward, it means that the realm of suchness awaits prajñā to be realized, and also by realizing objects the efficacy of prajñā is accomplished. From "this, then" onward, it concludes the difference phrase.
