Furthermore, "rule" (vinaya) means weighing the light and heavy, and discriminating offenses and non-offenses. Contemplating the mind is also like this, discriminating [delusions of] view and thought as coarse, evil, turbid, and heavy. Ignorance within the realm [of saṃsāra] is minor and light; adventitious dust of dust-and-sand arising transversally is again slightly heavy; the fundamental [ignorance] is subtle, as already explained above under the mind of bodhi. The three contemplations contemplating the three principles is non-offense; the three delusions obstructing the three principles is named an offense. The three medicines curing the three diseases: the appraisal is without error, not differing by a hairsbreadth.
