## Chapter Ten: The End
$920.$ It is said that the time has come to explain the nature of liberation, which was mentioned at the end. This is true. Liberation is attained only after the attainment of perfect knowledge. Therefore, the causes of the arising of perfect knowledge are stated in the following sutra:
**From the destruction of delusion, and the destruction of knowledge-obscuring, sight-obscuring, and karmic obstructions, perfect knowledge arises.** ||1||
$8921.$ It is appropriate to condense this sutra. Why? Because it makes the sutra shorter. How? By not using the word "destruction" separately, and by not using the word "and" due to the absence of a different case ending, the sutra becomes shorter, as in "From the destruction of delusion, knowledge-obscuring, sight-obscuring, and karmic obstructions, perfect knowledge arises." This is true, but the order of destruction is indicated by using different sentences. First, by destroying delusion and attaining the designation of "diminished karmas" for a very short time, then by simultaneously destroying knowledge-obscuring, sight-obscuring, and karmic obstructions, one attains perfect knowledge. The destruction of these karmas is the cause of the arising of perfect knowledge. Therefore, the case ending indicating the "cause" is used.
**Question:** How is the destruction of delusion attained first?
**Answer:** A future perfect being, who is growing in purity of results, having attained the state of un-controlled perfect vision, attains the destruction of the seven types of delusion in one of the four states of controlled-uncontrolled, deluded-controlled, and non-deluded-controlled. Having become a "karmic" perfect being, he becomes inclined to ascend the ladder of "karmic destroyers" and attains the state of non-deluded-controlled. By the application of the "unprecedented action," he experiences the designation of the "unprecedented action-karmic destroyer" state. There, he experiences the diminishing of the state and parts of the karmic nature of sins due to the purity of new results, and the increase of the parts of the experience of virtuous actions. By attaining the "non-reversal action," he attains the state of "non-reversal-karmic destroyer."
