English	If the Shrāvakas accepted that, in the mind-stream of the people they are talking about, there is a craving elicited by the view of the transitory collection, it would serve no purpose [for Shāntideva] to ask, “But why should they not have . . . ?” And it is perfectly correct to say that the reference to “ignorance” indicates the existence of another defiled craving. And because this is what is understood from the earlier debate, all that Mipham says is meaningless chatter. It shows that he does not understand even the general import of the teaching of the great master and is like someone shooting an arrow without identifying the target—a laughingstock indeed for the learned. Mipham’s assertions stem, for the most part, simply from wrong view. I do not have the leisure to refute each point individually, but I shall refute some of them through scriptural authority and reasoning when the occasion arises.

Avidyā - Literally "unknowing," it refers to a lack of knowledge or misunderstanding of the nature of reality. As such, it is considered to be the root cause of suffering and the basis for the arising of all other negative mental factors. Skt अविद्या  Tib མ་རིག་པ་  Ch 無明

Anumāna - Inference (Skt. anumāna; T. rjes dpag) is a way of knowing something indirectly, using logic and reasoning rather than direct experience. For example, if you see smoke rising from a distant mountain, you can infer that there is a fire there, even if you can't see the fire directly yourself. It's a key way to understand things that are hidden from our senses. It is used in the Buddhist tradition to gain insight into deeper levels of reality of self and phenomena.

Gotra - Disposition, lineage, or class; an individual's gotra determines the type of enlightenment one is destined to attain. Skt गोत्र  Tib རིགས་  Ch 鍾姓,種性

Bodhisattva - A person who seeks enlightenment for the sake of others. In Mahāyāna Buddhism, a bodhisattva is a compassionate being who is training on the path to buddhahood and aspires to eliminate the suffering of all beings and take all sentient beings to the state of enlightenment. The Mahāyāna sūtras including those on buddha-nature generally have bodhisattvas as the main audience or interlocutors for the Buddha's discourses. Skt बोधिसत्त्व  Tib བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ།  Ch 菩薩
