The opponent asks: "The five external objects such as form are distinctly and directly realized by the five consciousnesses; they are obtained through direct perception, universally established by both the Mahāyāna and Hīnayāna. How can one repudiate them as non-existent?" The Viṃśikā-vijñaptimātratāsiddhi states: "All dharmas have their existence or non-existence decisively determined by means of valid cognition (pramāṇa); among all means of valid cognition, direct perception (pratyakṣa) is supreme. If external objects did not exist, how could there be this awareness: 'I am now directly realizing such an object'?" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.546](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.546) - [Next: 7.548](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.548) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830~en-mt.7.547) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (3) - [宗鏡錄](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.63.14) — Classical Chinese - [唯識二十論述記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1834.2.164) — Classical Chinese - [唯識二十論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.darsana.yogacara.vimsatika!vrtti*zh-xuanzang.1.31) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.547](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.547) · Pramāṇa
