Comment: Jam-y#ang-shay-b#a holds that "name" (ming) in this the Mind-Only context means a term expressing that object (rang zhes rjod pa'i sgra), and although "terminology" (brda') usually has the same meaning as "name," in order to avoid redundancy he takes it to mean a conceptual consciousness apprehending that object (rang 'dzin rtog pa). (This explanation of "terminology" is well-founded in the tradition since a common dictum is that names and conceptual consciousnesses engage their objects similarly.) (PH) verify change in note  +

In the context of AsaGga's Compendium of Ascertainments (Tokyo sde dge, sems tsam, vol. 8 (zhi), 279b.1), Jik-may-dam-chö-gya-tso (Port of Entry, 410.3) identifies these as the six — contemplation, faith, ethics, true knowledge of clear realization, true knowledge arisen from the finality of clear realization, and final clear realization — and thus as the path.  +
