瑜伽師地論略纂 12.7

12.7

As for the treatise stating "because bodhisattvas truly know the distinct types of transmigration of the world," this concludes the previous distinct types of transmigration, such as the five defilements. "And the distinct types of transmigration of the vessel world" concludes the previously mentioned twenty kalpas of formation, twenty kalpas of destruction, and so forth. "And the meaning of contemplating the world through eight kinds of aspects" concludes the previous eight aspects of contemplating the four truths. "And whatever ultimate truth there is of all worlds" concludes the previous [teaching that there are] only forms and the like. Question: Why is it called the ultimate truth? Explanation: If one does not know its meaning, and grasps it according to the name, this is conventional; once one knows that there is only its name and does not give rise to grasping, it is therefore called the world.
