The word "api" in "even in the apprehension [of universals]" indicates a concession. In the first place, since universals etc. have been rejected, they do not even exist—so how could there be validity in their apprehension? But even granting that they exist, in their apprehension, the cognitions that arise after [the initial perception], like the initial perceptual awareness, must be non-conceptual because they have the svalakṣaṇa as their object, since universals etc. are accepted to be non-different from the svalakṣaṇa.
