2.56

Regarding "Intrinsic conceptualization... will be explained and analyzed later": This refers forward to the explanation below that all instances of reflection associated with the six consciousnesses are intrinsic conceptualization. Question: If the essence is reflection alone, why does fascicle forty-two of the *Mahāvibhāṣā* state, "Intrinsic conceptualization refers to reflection and investigation"? Explanation: This treatise speaks from the predominant perspective, hence it mentions reflection alone. The *Mahāvibhāṣā* mentions both the strong and the weak, hence it encompasses both reflection and investigation; alternatively, it is omitted for brevity; or mentioning the first illuminates the second; or the treatise masters held different viewpoints.
