5.305

眾人共施設所起言論必依此六相狀，非說此六相狀定是假有。然唯識說：作意能取事之總相及餘心所所取別相。此中即說通二境色，或此但舉能取總境故說作意所取能起於識，不爾便違顯揚等論既總取境名心亦別名心所故。

The discourses arisen from what people commonly designate must depend on these six characteristics; it is not said that these six characteristics are definitely conventionally existent. However, the Cheng weishi lun states that attention is able to apprehend the general characteristic of an entity, while the remaining mental factors apprehend its specific characteristics. Here, this is said to pervade form as two types of objects; or alternatively, this merely adduces what can apprehend the general object, hence saying that what attention apprehends is able to give rise to consciousness; otherwise it would contradict treatises such as the Prakaraṇāryavācā, since apprehending the object in general is named 'mind' and specifically is also named 'mental factor'.
