2.71

述曰:舉月為難,應立量云:汝和合色處,設許是眼識之所緣,非是緣;以彼都無實體性故;如第二月。第二月彼計亦是假,不生五識,唯意識所緣。《觀所緣緣論》頌云:「和合於五識,設所緣非緣,彼體實無故,猶如第二月。」經部第二月亦非五所緣,今以為喻者,意取少分。

The Commentary states: Raising the [second] moon as an objection, one should set up the syllogism: Your combined visible matter, even granted to be the object of visual consciousness, is not its condition (thesis); because it completely lacks a real entity (reason); like a second moon (example). The second moon, in their doctrine, is also nominal, does not produce the five consciousnesses, and is cognized solely by mental consciousness. The Ālambanaparīkṣā verse says: 'The combination, with respect to the five consciousnesses, / Granted it is an object, is not a condition; / Because its entity is truly non-existent, / Just like a second moon.' For the Sautrāntika, a second moon is also not an object of the five [consciousnesses]; using it now as an example is intended to take a partial aspect.
