The primary mind cannot apprehend the particular characteristics of an object, but apprehends only the general object; mental factors not only apprehend the general characteristic of the object, but also apprehend its appropriate particular characteristics on that object. Therefore, it is said here: "that which has not yet been discerned on this \[object\]," etc. The Weishi explains: This statement expresses that the mental factors also apprehend the general characteristic of the object, \[as well as\] the particular characteristics of the object not yet discerned upon this general object. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.27) - [Next: 2.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.29) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829~en-mt.2.28) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [成唯識論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.darsana.yogacara.trimsika!vijnaptimatratasiddhi*zh-xuanzang.5.147) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.28) · Pramāṇa
