墮法處色，有二種；若有威德定所行境猶如變化等者，備景同云：三乘聖人定心境界，謂作八一切處觀當心而現，此是實有，為緣令他自見心變八相分，如變化心起變化色與他為緣亦令他見自所變色，定現色是定心果，後是定所緣名境，故言彼果彼境問，定所行境既是法處，云何令他眼所見耶？答：為增上緣令他自變故眼識見，非謂令他見法處色。

Forms falling under the base of phenomena (dharmāyatana) are of two kinds: when it says 'if it is the sphere of samādhi endowed with authority, like transformations, etc.', Bei and Jing both say: The spheres of the concentrated mind of the noble ones of the three vehicles—meaning when practicing the contemplation of the eight totalities (kṛtsnāyatana) they appear before the mind—these are real existents. Serving as a condition, they cause others to see for themselves the mental manifestation of the eight aspect components (nimittabhāga); just as the mind of transformation produces transformed form and serves as a condition for others, also causing others to see the form transformed by themselves. Form manifested in samādhi is the fruit of the samādhi mind; the latter is what is cognized by samādhi and is called the object; therefore it is said 'that fruit, that object'. Question: Since the sphere of samādhi is the base of phenomena, how can it be seen by others' eyes? Answer: Serving as an empowering condition (adhipatipratyaya) it causes others to transform it themselves, and thus the eye consciousness sees it; it does not mean causing others to see the form of the base of phenomena.
