7.96
Answer: It speaks specifically of confirming emptiness, but not that it does not confirm existence. Because of long-standing deluded attachment to names, referents, and so forth as existing, one does not understand the other-dependent and fully perfected natures. When contemplating their emptiness, one is able to awaken to the latter two; therefore it speaks of confirming emptiness, but in principle it also confirms existence. Hence it says below: "[The bodhisattva] still establishes a slight object before the mind, considering it to be the true ultimate nature of vijñapti-mātra."
