[Treatise:] "What are the two?… phase of inconceivable activity."

Commentary: These are the specific names. What is called "cognition" is the cognition of initial awakening. "Purity" means freedom from defilement. Because it is identical to the fruition function of original awakening, it is called "activity." Because it cannot be compared with the lower stages, it is called "inconceivable." "Phase" means appearance. Original awakening according with defilement has the appearances of these two phases that will arise.
