2.215
如是七識,從何處所來入藏識作七種數,流轉起動無斷絕時?如是七轉識不從內來、不從外來、不從中間來,唯藏識體變作七識。譬如海水,動作波浪。故云譬如海水動,種種波浪轉,藏識亦如是。種種諸識生,心意及意識,為諸相故說。
From what place do these seven consciousnesses come to enter into the storehouse consciousness, forming the number of seven, flowing and stirring without any time of cessation? These seven evolving consciousnesses do not come from within, do not come from without, and do not come from in between; it is merely that the substance of the storehouse consciousness transforms to become the seven consciousnesses. Just as ocean water moves to make waves, therefore it is said: "Just as ocean water moves / And various waves evolve, / The storehouse consciousness is also like this: / The various consciousnesses arise. / Mind, intellect, and mental consciousness / Are taught for the sake of characteristics."
