成唯識論述記 4.115

4.115

The Commentary states: 'Laṅkā' is the name of a mountain in Siṃhala (Sri Lanka). 'Entering' means that in the past the Buddha entered there to teach the Dharma to the king of that place and spirits, hence it is called 'entering'. This is the Buddha's answering verse in the second fascicle of the ten-fascicle Laṅkāvatāra, and the verse in the first fascicle of the four-fascicle Laṅkāvatāra: 'Just as waves upon the great sea / arise because of fierce winds; / surging billows stir across the boundless expanse / without ever having a time of cessation; / so too is the ocean of the storehouse consciousness: / stirred by the wind of objects, / waves of the various consciousnesses / surge up and arise in evolution.' However, that sūtra's verse differs slightly from this one; its transliteration 'Lengjia' was not precise.
