成唯識論述記 3.285

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.285](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.3.285)

述曰：此護法菩薩等解，唯變他根依處，他根於己都無用故。若無用亦變，何不變七識？無緣慮用而得緣故。若爾，彼說自他根現，文如何通？

> The Commentary states: This is the explanation of Bodhisattva Dharmapāla and others: It only manifests the physical supports of another's indriyas, because another's indriyas are completely useless to oneself. If it were to manifest even what is useless, why would it not manifest the seven consciousnesses? For \[they could be\] conditioned without having the function of cognitive deliberation. If so, how does one resolve the passage where that \[treatise\] speaks of the appearance of one's own and another's indriyas?
