Saṃkleśasaṃghāta (संक्लेशसंघात) refers to “suppressing defilements”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly: “[...] That is to say, this dharma is produced as a result from causes and conditions, but even so there is no activity nor agent in them. Those who perceive things thus are beyond the fruition of causes. Why is that? This is because the Lord said that understanding defilements is purification but suppressing defilements (saṃkleśasaṃghāta) is not purification as the essential character of defilement is purification. [...]”.
