成唯識論述記 6.48

6.48

The Commentary states: The author of the treatise answers: This does not take loathsome things as its cognitive object. This desire only seeks the state of not meeting what has not yet been met and being separated from what has already been met among loathsome things. The delightful essence—whether in one's own body, the non-meeting and subsequent state of separation are delightful; if desiring an external sphere, this state is precisely arising by taking a delightful thing as a cognitive object, not a loathsome thing.
