俱舍論記 13.52

13.52

「豈不觸形至能念花色」者，說一切有部救。行之言在，豈不觸、形俱，在一聚故。身因取觸，意能憶念先見形色，非於觸中身親取形，故無色處二根取過。寄喻來況。如眼見火赤色，意便憶念先觸火煗，非於色中眼親取觸。又如鼻嗅花香，意能憶念先見花色，非於香中鼻親取色。

[On the text,] "Is it not that touch and shape … capable of recollecting the color of the flower?": The Sarvāstivāda rescues its doctrine. "Being" means existing together; is it not that touch and shape are both present in a single aggregation? Relying on apprehending the tangible, the mind is able to recollect the shape previously seen; the body does not directly apprehend shape within touch. Therefore, there is no fault of a single rūpa-āyatana being apprehended by two faculties. A metaphor is introduced to illustrate this: like the eye seeing the red color of fire, the mind immediately recollects the heat of fire previously touched; the eye does not directly apprehend touch within color. Again, like the nose smelling the fragrance of a flower, the mind is able to recollect the color of the flower previously seen; the nose does not directly apprehend color within fragrance.
