6.186

什曰:有無見反於法相,名為顛倒。先見有無,然後分別好惡。然則有無見是惑累之本、妄想之初,故偏受倒名也。肇曰:法本非有,倒想為有。既以為有,然後擇其美惡,謂之分別也。生曰:惑心內轉為倒,然後妄分別外事。

[Kumāra]jīva says: Views of existence and non-existence run contrary to the true characteristics of dharmas; this is called perversion. One first sees existence and non-existence, and then differentiates between attractive and repulsive. Thus, views of existence and non-existence are the basis of defiling delusions and the beginning of false thinking; hence they are specifically given the name of perversion. [Seng]zhao says: Dharmas originally do not exist; perverted thought takes them to exist. Once taking them to exist, one then selects between their fine and bad [qualities], which is called conceptual differentiation. [Dao]sheng says: When the deluded mind turns inward, it becomes perversion; thereafter, it falsely differentiates external matters.
