大乘百法明門論開宗義決 1.241

1.241

Regarding "in reliance on the stage of the peak of existence, entering the contemplation of the uncontaminated, etc.": the contemplation of the uncontaminated refers to the subsequent uncontaminated wisdom of the practitioners of the two vehicles, the forbearance of dharma regarding suffering, and so forth; these are all correct wisdom that can realize principle and sever various afflictions. The subsequently attained wisdom lacks this ability. Furthermore, it is not like that of the bodhisattvas who contemplate the minds of sentient beings to explain the Dharma for them; it can only be used to traverse and observe all contemplative approaches, serving as the preparatory application for uncontaminated meditative absorption. Moreover, this uncontaminated [wisdom] belongs to the stage of the peak of existence, because it is subsequently attained based on the mind of the peak of existence. Now, since this absorption of cessation is uncontaminated, one enters it using this uncontaminated [wisdom] as the preparatory application.
