The Commentary states: Excluding a real self and real phenomena outside the transforming consciousness and so forth is named "consciousness-only"; it does not exclude mental factors, the darśana- and nimittabhāgas, matter, tathatā, and so on that are not apart from consciousness; hence, being not apart from consciousness, it is called "consciousness-only". This is Dharmapāla's explanation of the fourth line, which concurrently dispels external objections. Sthiramati explains nominal, real, and so on accordingly. This is what was explained in the first fascicle regarding "transformation" as turning and changing; between the two masters, this is the doctrine of the first master Dharmapāla and of master Sthiramati. Transformation applies to both nimitta and darśana, yet there are differences of existence and non-existence, as explained in the first fascicle: based on the transformed darśanabhāga, the real grasper is eliminated; based on the transformed nimittabhāga, the real grasped is eliminated; as appropriate, the two graspers are absent. Above, Sthiramati stated that all others except the Buddha [are parikalpita], whereas Dharmapāla holds that it applies throughout, or both are sāsrava, since "discrimination" is spoken of.
