成唯識論述記 9.491

9.491

述曰：謂名、義二種，一、自性同；二、差別同，故合名、義二種自性及二差別為合觀也。前二是名、義；後二是自性、差別。名、義舉尋求，顯「尋」者求也，此二影有思察。自性、差別舉思察，顯「思」者察也，推也，觀也。此二影有尋求，故諸論言推求名、義觀察名、義等是也。前引《瑜伽》離、合相觀，離觀是名、義觀，合相是自性、差別。此即第三，出所修法。自下第四釋四地名。

The Commentary states: This means that between name and referent, first, their intrinsic nature is shared; second, their differences are shared; therefore, one combines the two kinds of intrinsic nature and two differences of name and referent into a joint contemplation. The first two are name and referent; the latter two are intrinsic nature and differences. For name and referent, 'seeking' is raised, showing that 'seeking' (xun) means searching (qiu); these two implicitly include examining. For intrinsic nature and differences, 'examining' is raised, showing that 'examining' (si) means observing (cha), inquiring (tui), and contemplating (guan). These two implicitly include seeking; hence, various treatises say 'seeking into names and referents, observing names and referents', and so forth. The earlier citation of the Yogācārabhūmi on separate and joint contemplation means that separate contemplation is the contemplation of names and referents, and joint contemplation is the contemplation of intrinsic nature and differences. This is the third, presenting the dharmas cultivated. Below this is the fourth, explaining the names of the four stages.
