8.52

This explains that although bodhisattvas from the first stage to the sixth stage have not yet completely extinguished the mind, thought, and mental consciousness, they are already able to practice contemplation that all phenomena exist due to discrimination, and coarse discriminatory thoughts no longer manifest. Ordinary fools do not realize that, perfumed by the habit-energies of faults and falsities from beginningless time, characteristics of the grasper and the grasped are transformed within their own mind, and thus they give rise to attachment—just as iron produces rust and damages itself.
