two purities. The purity resulting from the removal of the obscuration of conflicting emotions and the obscuration covering the knowable nyon mong gi sgrib dang shes bya'i sgrib kyis dag pa. Syn spang ba gnyis [RY]

two purities [IW]

purity from the two obscurations nyon mong gi sgrib kyis dag pa and shes bya'i sgrib kyis dag pa OR rang bzhin/ ngo bo dag and glo bur dag [IW]

Twofold purity. Inherent or primordial purity and the purity of having removed all temporary obscurations [RY]

two types of purity (rang bzhin, blo dur) [JV]

The Two Purities are 1) Inherent Purity (rang bzhin gyi dag pa) or Essential Purity (ngo bo'i dag pa), being pure by nature, and 2) Adventitious Purity (glo bur gyi dag pa), which is the purity of being free or devoid of emotional and cognitive obscurations (sgrib pa) which are adventitious, superficial or temporary. Another meaning for 'the Two Purities' is 1) the purity resulting from the elimination of the emotional obscurations of afflictive mental states (nyon mongs kyi sgrip kyis dag pa) and 2) the purity resulting from the elimination of the cognitive obscurations which prevent knowledge of reality (shes bya'i sgrib kyis dag pa).
