Therefore the \*Cheng weishi lun\* says: 'Relying upon the fundamental consciousness, the various consciousnesses manifest according to conditions, either together or not together, like waves relying on water.' It means that if conditions are simultaneously complete, they manifest together, like a mirror reflecting images without before or after. This verse clarifies that when conditions are not simultaneously complete, they evolve and arise in sequence. Because the sixth consciousness discriminates dharmas as sense-objects, it says 'consciousness because of being able to discern.' The manas takes the ālaya as object, giving rise to grasping at ātman and ātmīya, hence it says 'the manas also thinks it to be so.' As the five consciousnesses follow present dusts, how could there be a fixed sequence? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.239](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.2.239) - [Next: 2.241](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.2.241) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791~en-mt.2.240) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.2.240](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.2.240) · Pramāṇa
