T
The ‘I shall know what has not been known ’faculty; the first of three <br>outflow-free cognitive faculties which are:ājñātam-ājñāsyāmīndriya,<br>ājñendriya and ājñātāvīndriya. These three faculties, in their essential<br>nature, are constituted of manas, sukha, saumanasya, upekṣā, śraddhā,<br>vīrya, smṛti, samādhi and prajñā. These nine are differentiated as the three<br>distinctive faculties on account of the predominance that they exercise in the<br>darśana-mārga, bhāvanā-mārga and aśaikṣa-mārga, respectively. The<br>anājñātam-ājñāsyāmīndriya exercises predominance with regard to the<br>cessation of the darśana-heya defilements. In the acquisition of the fruit of <br>stream entry, it functions as the inductor (āvāhaka) of the visaṃyoga-prāpti,<br>and constitutes the path of liberation. +
Unconditioned. There are three categories of unconditioned dharma-s<br>: pratisaṃkhyā-nirodha, apratisaṃkhyā-nirodha, ākāśa. +

(An Ābhidharmika's) skilfulness with regard to endowment and non-endowment. +
'Diamond-like concentration’,so called because, like a diamond that can<br> cut through all things, it is the last stage in the abandonment of<br>defilements; whatever defilements that have remained are all abandoned<br> in this samādhi. +
Worldly right view. +
Non-informative action. Unlike a vijñapti karma which<br> informs us of the mental state of the doer, this is a karmic force which,<br> once projected by a bodily or vocal karma, continues to<br> exist as a series invisibly; hence, non-informative. +
Preparatory efforts conducing to decisive distinction: i.e., to the arising of<br>outflow-free knowledge. These are also called the skilful roots; there<br>are four: uṣmagata, mūrdhan, kṣānti,laukikāgra-dharma. +

Ignorance, nescience. It is notjust the absence of vidyā,<br>but a real existent functioning as positive force causing the<br> non-cognizance. It operates in two modes: as saṃprayuktā avidyā and <br>āveṇikī avidyā. +
