This previous chapter is actually one of the weaker points in Tsongkhapa's system, although it does still hold water philosophically. He bends over backwards to justify some passages from Chandrakirti that appear to be contradictory. He does this very well, and in the end his justification does end up working, but the explanation presented here is very convoluted even if it is logically sound.

The last 3/4 of this book are going to take some time because it's a condensation of Tsongkhapa's philosophical arguments. I want to understand all of it so I am progressing slowly, which is not a bad thing!
