大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 65.19

65.19

In the commentary, "Although there is the combination of the three..." reflects the meaning of the Kośa. The verse states: "Before distinguishing the differences in the causes of the three feelings, it is known as contact." The "causes of the three feelings" refers to the objects of the three feelings, for objects can produce feelings and are therefore called causes. That is, for two or three years after emerging from the womb, one has not yet clearly comprehended the three [causes], and therefore it is not called feeling.
