成唯識論了義燈 4.35

4.35

《論》：許類是假應不持種子者。問：種子體是實，識類假不持。心、心法是真，假法非能礙。答：持種具四義，假法闕不持，遮法據功能，假法何妨礙？今助解云：遮用勢疎遠，假法亦能防，持種據親含，要實方能受。又難云：二定依種立，雖假還防種，識類依識立，識類持識種。答：解如前。

The treatise says: "If you admit that the class is nominal, it should not hold seeds." Objection: Seeds are real in essence, and the nominal class of consciousness does not hold them. Mind and mental factors are real; how could a nominal phenomenon obstruct them? Answer: Holding seeds requires four conditions; nominal phenomena lack them and do not hold [seeds]. Obstructing phenomena operates according to efficacy; why would a nominal phenomenon be hindered from obstructing? Now, to add a further explanation: the power of obstructing is distant and loose, so even a nominal phenomenon can ward [something] off; holding seeds depends on intimate containment, so it must be real to receive [them]. Again it is objected: The two absorptions are established based on seeds, and though nominal, they still ward off seeds; the class of consciousness is established based on consciousness, so the class of consciousness holds the seeds of consciousness. Answer: The explanation is as before.
