泰云:上界既無招段食業取鼻舌根,故香味於彼無業生因,及鼻舌根取境之用,測云:定心雖作五塵相分,而屬法處不名香味,俱隨所似故假名香味,何者,上界定非香味因故,香味亦非定心所用故,空行風無俱生香等者,此因言長辨空行風無根本俱生之香但有假名,如風遇華,香逐風來。

Tai says, "Since the higher realms lack karma that incurs mouthful food to grasp nose and tongue faculties, fragrance and taste have neither a karmic generative cause nor the function of the nose and tongue faculties grasping objects there." Ce says, "Although the concentrated mind produces the objective aspect of the five sense objects, they belong to the realm of phenomena and are not called fragrance and taste; merely conforming to what they resemble, they are provisionally called fragrance and taste. Why? Because concentration in the higher realms is not a cause for fragrance and taste, nor are fragrance and taste what the concentrated mind uses. Regarding 'wind moving in space has no co-arising fragrance and so forth': this is an extensive explanation clarifying that wind moving in space has no fundamental, co-arising fragrance, but only a provisional name, just as when wind encounters flowers, fragrance follows the wind."
