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. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.185](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.6.185) - [Next: 6.187](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.6.187) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.6.186) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.6.186](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.6.186) · Pramāṇa
