俱舍論疏 30.112

30.112

論「今應詰彼至能了亦爾」，論主先破其喻，准喻破法也。兩關徵問。天授是何？若是實我，此如前破。若假士夫，體非一物。於天授諸行相續，假立天授名故。此破喻也。如天授能行，識能了亦爾。類破法也。

On the Śāstra's: "Now we should question them ... consciousness cognising is also like this": The author of the Śāstra first refutes their simile, and by analogy with the simile refutes the doctrine. A two-pronged interrogation: What is Devadatta? If he is a real self, this was refuted earlier. If he is a nominal person, his substance is not a single thing, because the name Devadatta is nominally designated upon the continuum of conditioned forces of Devadatta. This refutes the simile. Just as Devadatta can walk, consciousness cognising is also like this: this refutes the doctrine by analogy.
