{I} The 'two hindrances' of fenbiezhang 分别障 and jushengzhang 俱生障, found in the teachings of Consciousness-only. {II} The afflictive hindrances (fannaozhang 烦恼障) which are contained in the first seven "transformed consciousnesses" 转识 and can be eliminated by the gradual practices of the /sra^vakas and pratyekabuddhas, and the noetic hindrances (suozhi^zhàng 所知障) the most subtle of which are contained in the base consciousness 阿赖耶识 and can only be destroyed by bodhisattvas who have the immediate experience of emptiness (a^varan!a-dvaya). In the Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment (圆觉经), these are referred to as the "phenomenal hindrance" (shizhang 事障) and "hindrances of principle" (lizhang 理障), respectively. For a text which discusses the hindrances in detail, see the 二障义.
