成唯識論述記 4.353

4.353

述曰：自下第五三法契經，文各有三，准上可解。此經有頌，謂壽、煖、及與識。三法捨身時，所捨身僵仆，如木無思覺。此中更互依持之經，是長行文，與頌稍別。此經意說，於有色界有壽、煖處有能持識，三法攝故。識如彼二亦應相續，故以為證。

The Commentary states: Below is the fifth [section on the] sūtra of the three dharmas. The text each has three parts, which can be understood according to the above. This sūtra contains a verse: "Life, warmth, and consciousness: / When these three dharmas abandon the body, / The abandoned body lies stiff and prone, / Like a piece of wood, devoid of conscious feeling." Here, the sūtra on mutual reliance and sustenance is a prose text, slightly different from the verse. The meaning of this sūtra is that in the realms with matter, where there are life and warmth, there is a consciousness capable of sustaining them, because they are subsumed under three dharmas. Consciousness, like those two, must also be continuous; hence it is taken as proof.
