下解識非識住,若依毘曇言:一剎那無一識性能住所住,今此釋云:諸識自性非染,由世尊說一切心性本清淨故者,意明識體非煩惱性說為非染即以心性非是煩惱名本性淨,以性淨故非彼愛力引識令住。

Below, it explains that consciousness is not a station of consciousness. If according to the Abhidharma, it says: within one moment, there is no single nature of consciousness that can act both as the abider and as that which is abided in. Now this [treatise] explains by saying: "The intrinsic nature of the various consciousnesses is undefiled, because the World-Honoured One said that the nature of all minds is fundamentally pure." The meaning is that the essence of consciousness is not of the nature of afflictions; it is said to be undefiled, which means that the mind's nature not being an affliction is called "fundamentally pure." Because its nature is pure, it is not the power of that craving that draws consciousness and causes it to abide.
