成唯識論掌中樞要 1.16

1.16

釋題目者：梵云「毘若底」（丁爾反，識也）；「摩咀刺多」（唯也）；「悉提」（成也）；「奢薩呾羅」（論也）。應云「識唯成論」，順此唐言「成唯識論」。梵音成唯識於女聲內以呼之，或「毘若底摩呾剌多毘輸度迦」，（淨也）。

Explaining the title: In Sanskrit, it is vijñapti (ding-er fan: consciousness); mātratā (only); siddhi (establishment); śāstra (treatise). It should literally be called “Consciousness-Only Establishment Treatise”; according with the Chinese language here, it is Cheng weishi lun (Treatise on the Establishment of Consciousness-Only). In Sanskrit, Vijñaptimātratāsiddhi is spoken in the feminine gender; or else Vijñaptimātratāviśodhaka (viśodhaka meaning purification).
