The Commentary states: If mind only viewed mind, and mental factors individually viewed individual mental factors as bases of their own categories, then when the seventh and eighth consciousnesses at whatever stage first transform their basis (āśrayaparavṛtti), their associated faith (śraddhā) and so on would lack this condition, because in their defiled state they never previously existed. To establish that they have this condition, mind viewed with respect to mental factors can serve as this condition. Question: What does it matter if the condition is lacking?
