成唯識論述記 3.89

3.89

述曰：勝用有二，一、能緣勢用，即簡諸色為相分熏，非能緣熏；二、強盛勝用，謂不任運起，即簡別類異熟心等，有緣慮用，無強盛用，為相分熏，非能緣熏。由斯色等有強盛用，無能緣用；異熟心等，有能緣用，無強盛用；不相應法二用俱無，皆非能熏，即勝勢用可致熏習，如強健人能致功効，故第八俱五心所等，亦非能熏。若為他緣，一切無過，此中總言，意說如此。

The Commentary states: Superior function is twofold: first, the vigorous function of being capable of cognition, which excludes the various forms [by restricting them] to perfuming as the object-aspect (nimittabhāga), not perfuming as the capable cognizer; second, an intense superior function, meaning not arising spontaneously, which excludes other classes of heterogeneous ripening minds and so forth, which have the function of cognitive reflection but lack intense function, perfuming as the object-aspect and not perfuming as the capable cognizer. From this, form and so forth have intense function but lack cognitive function; heterogeneous ripening minds and so forth have cognitive function but lack intense function; and non-associated dharmas lack both functions; none of these are capable of perfuming. Only superior vigorous function can effect perfuming, just as a strong and vigorous person can effect results. Therefore, the five mental factors and so forth concurrent with the eighth [consciousness] are likewise not capable of perfuming. If they serve as conditions for another, there is no fault at all; the general statement here is intended in this way.
