Sambodhi - the same as "Bodhi", - "Comprehension" (traditionally translated in Western Buddhism as "Awakening")

Re: Meaning for these terms ?
Hi friends ,
Cakkhu nana upasama abhinna sambodha nibbana.
(in the beginning of the Sutta)
Cakkhu nana panna abhinna aloko .
(in the 3 rounds 12 phases)
These appears in the dhamma cakka pavattana Sutta .
Thanks guys and sorry for the typing error .
So, nana is knowledge , but of what ?
What is the differences between them ?

What it says is:
An Exposition of the Dhammacakka Sutta
An Exposition of the Dhammacakka Sutta
Cakkhu (lit. eye), here, means vision, clear seeing, or intuitive insight. Ñāṇa means knowledge.“Dveme, bhikkhave, antā pabbajitena na sevitabbā. Katame dve? Yo cāyaṃ kāmesu kāmasukhallikānuyogo hīno gammo pothujjaniko anariyo anatthasaṃhito, yo cāyaṃ attakilamathānuyogo dukkho anariyo anatthasaṃhito. Ete kho, bhikkhave, ubho ante anupagamma majjhimā paṭipadā Tathāgatena abhisambuddhā cakkhukaraṇī ñāṇakaraṇī upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṃvattati.”
“These two extremes, monks, should not be followed by one gone forth. Which two? Sensual indulgence, which is low, vulgar, worldly, ignoble, and unprofitable; and self-mortification, which is painful, ignoble, and unprofitable. Avoiding these two extremes, monks, the Tathāgata has discovered the Middle Path that produces vision and knowledge, and leads to tranquillity, higher knowledge, enlightenment, and nibbāna.”

Reminds me of the Sanskrit jñāna-cakṣuṣā, which appears in Bhagavad Gita 13:35.Bhikkhu Pesala wrote: Cakkhu (lit. eye), here, means vision, clear seeing, or intuitive insight. Ñāṇa means knowledge.
