成唯識論了義燈 7.92

7.92

Answer: In terms of learning contemplation, entering expedients, and semblance awakening, one first awakens to the imagined, next to the other-dependent, and finally to the consummate nature. That is, one contemplates names and referents as mutually guests to each other, knowing they are not real; next, one contemplates them as mere consciousness, mere designations, and so forth. But in terms of genuine realization, one must comprehend the consummate nature before one knows that consciousness is like an illusion. Thus, the two explanations do not contradict each other.
