[1455] One who does not fully understand (na parijānāti) the latent tendency of conceit (mānānusaya), does he not fully understand the latent tendency of views (diṭṭhānusaya) … the latent tendency of doubt (vicikicchānusaya)?
The eighth person (aṭṭhamaka) does not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit, but it is not that he does not fully understand the latent tendency of doubt. Excepting the one endowed with the highest path (aggamaggasamaṅgī) and the eighth person, the remaining persons do not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit and do not fully understand the latent tendency of doubt.
Or rather, one who does not fully understand the latent tendency of doubt, does he not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit?
The one endowed with the highest path does not fully understand the latent tendency of doubt, but it is not that he does not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit. Excepting the one endowed with the highest path and the eighth person, the remaining persons do not fully understand the latent tendency of doubt and do not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit.
One who does not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit, does he not fully understand the latent tendency of lust for existence (bhavarāgānusaya) … the latent tendency of ignorance (avijjānusaya)?
Yes.
Or rather, one who does not fully understand the latent tendency of ignorance, does he not fully understand the latent tendency of conceit?
