Twofold purity (Tib. དག་པ་གཉིས་ལྡན་, dakpa nyiden; Wyl. dag pa gnyis ldan) —

  1. Firstly, purity in the sense that it is always pure by its very nature (Tib. ངོ་བོ་ཡེ་དག་, ngowo yé dak; Wyl. ngo bo ye dag), and secondly, purity in the sense that all the adventitious stains have been purified (Tib. གློ་བུར་བྲལ་དག་, lobur dral dak; Wyl. glo bur bral dag).
  2. Alternatively, the phrase twofold purity can refer to purity of the two kinds of obscuration, emotional and cognitive.
