成唯識論述記 2.45

2.45

The Commentary states: This directly sets forth the correct teaching. Here, the word 'although' encompasses both concession and objection: it partially agrees with the concept of matter, but intends to show that the transformation of consciousness is not like the other [school's] matter. That is, the treatise master answers: although there is matter as support and intentional object, it is manifested through the transformation of consciousness; it is not that there are separate atoms outside the mind to form faculties and objects.
