Answer: The contemplation gateway of our tradition eternally differs from all other theories. That which completely subsumes all causes and effects—whether ordinary or sacred—of the ten directions and the three times is precisely due to contemplating possession. Possession is the provisional; the provisional is emptiness and the middle. Although the nature-principle possesses them, if one does not contemplate it and merely speaks of contemplating the mind, it does not accord with the principle. When did the Hīnayāna ever fail to contemplate the mind? It is simply deluded about the one mind possessing all dharmas.
