Translation
| a1 | The cause for the fineness of the thought is deliberation (vicāra), because the mind uses the fine dharmas as support. |
|---|---|
| a1+ | The single element, the sense objects surpassing the five material senses, the avijñaptiand which are the fine dharmas relating to the mind, all (these) mental consciousness uses as support in the power of vicāra. |
| a2+ | Therefore he says: |
| a3 | The dharma appropriate for the activity (lit. rising) of the mental consciousness is vicāra. |
| a3+ | What is negligence? |
| a4 | The not practicing of good dharmas. |
| a4+ | If negligence is manifest in the mind, by its power the mind carries out two actions: |
| a5 | It cannot manifest the virtues that have been evoked; it cannot evoke obtainment of the virtues that have not (yet) been evoked. |
| a5+ | The meaning which "inattentiveness for virtues" has: Through the power of negligence, thought (and) the senses starting from sight are not directed towards good things. |
| b2 | What is non-negligence? The practicing of good dharmas. |
| b2+ | The dharma opposite of negligence. |
| b3+ | The fear from seeing the sin of the saṃsāra, fit for detachment (from passions), is called aversion (mrosklune). |
| b4+ | The mental dharma through the arising of which thought feels aversion towards the Samsāra, connected with the thoughts, is called nirvid. |
| b5 | And through the connection of which nirvid... concentration... |

| a1+ | An der Feinheit des Geistes ist vicāra die Ursache, insofern als der Geist sich die feinen Eigenschaften zur Stütze macht. Das einzelne Atom, die über die fünf materiellen Sinnesorgane hinausreichenden Sinnesobjekte, die avijñapti und welches die feinen geistigen Eigenschaften sind, sie alle insgesamt macht sich die Geisteserkenntnis vermöge des vicāra zur Stütze. (Schmidt 1974: 430) |
|---|---|
| a4+ | If negligence is manifest in the mind, by its power the mind carries out two actions: virtues that have been created it cannot make manifest [and] of virtues that have not been created it cannot create the attainment. (cf 722) (Peyrot 2013b: 643) |
| a4+ | [Wenn] Nachlässigkeit im Geiste vorhanden ist, [so] übt der Geist kraft d[ies]er zwei Tätigkeiten aus: [bereits] hervorgerufene Tugenden kann er nicht zum Vorschein bringen, die prāpti [Erreichung] [noch] nicht hervorgerufener Tugenden kann er nicht hervorrufen. (Schmidt 1974: 503) |
| b5 | Der Geist wird des Saṃsāras überdrüssig. (Schmidt 1974: 162) |
| b5 | Die[se] mit dem Geist verbundene geistige Eigenschaft wird nirvid [Überdruss] genannt. (Schmidt 1974: 223) |
