【The Twelve Factors of Dependent-Arising 希求解脱】Ignorance is the classes of phenomena that are directly antithetical to and incompatible with cognition 无明是明相违所对治品
【The Twelve Factors of Dependent-Arising】-
【Likewise, ignorance also refers neither to the absence of that cognition which is the remedy for ignorance nor to what is other than this, but to the classes of phenomena that are directly antithetical to and incompatible with cognition. 】
Similarly, so what is "ignorance"? It also speaks of the absence of the cognition which is the remedy for ignorance. And that it is not just the absence of "that cognition which is the remedy for ignorance nor to what is other than this." But rather it is "the classes of phenomena that are directly antithetical to and incompatible with cognition." It is exactly the opposite of that type of cognition. What are these two? What is "directly antithetical"? It means if you exist then I cannot exist. And if I exist then you cannot exist. It is exactly like that. Hence for these two objects, not only must they be the opposite like enemies, but that if one object exists, it will certainly destroy the other one. If you exist, you will certainly destroy me. Therefore between ignorance and cognition, this is the situation. Thus if ignorance exists, I am sorry, you are certainly ignorant and unaware. But if you can grasp the main points and train on this path of enlightenment, you will become aware and lucid in your cognition. You can certainly overcome this ignorance. You can certainly eliminate it!

希求解脱 : 无明是明相违所对治品
【如是无明，亦非仅遮能对之明及明所余，是明相违所对治品。】
同样地，说“无明”是什么呢？也是遮没有明，不是遮“能对之明及明所余”，“是明相违所对治”，跟明恰恰相反的。这两个，什么叫“对治”啊？就是说有你就无我，有我就无你，就这样。所以这两个一定是不但敌体相反，而且是互相有了你的话，我一定把你消灭；有了你的话，你一定把我消灭。所以这个明跟无明之间是两个，在这种状态当中。所以如果是无明存在，对不起，你一定是无明、不觉；如果你把握住了重点修它那个觉道的话，你觉了、明了，这个无明是一定可以克服，一定可以净除！
