Tenth, distinguishing the three wisdoms: discerning the principle of the dust mote's nature as empty and nonexistent, deciding between the false and the correct, and according with principle to enter the real—this deciding mind is the preparatory wisdom (prayoga-jñāna). Furthermore, seeing that this dust mote entirely leaves behind speech and cuts off thought, that its nature transcends conception and measurement, where subject and object do not arise and even stirring a thought is absent—this is the fundamental wisdom (mūla-jñāna). Furthermore, seeing that the dust mote's conditioned origination is illusory existence and does not obstruct distinctions, so that although there are diverse distinctions, none are not empty and nonexistent, and because it does not lose its essence, it gives rise to great function entirely with the essence of phenomena—where the one and the many are unobstructed, host and companion mutually subsume, the one is the all, and the all is the one—this is the subsequently attained wisdom (pṛṣṭhalabdha-jñāna).
