成唯識論演祕 1.21

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833.1.21)

答：有二釋，一云：名等佛識雖無，然聽法者謂佛實說，故自心上有似文義，雖無本質所似名等，似自內心故亦無失；如言似我，向內似故。二云：似佛無漏非文義也，無所似故，文義之言相從來矣。

> Answer: There are two explanations. One says: Although names and so forth do not exist in the Buddha's consciousness, the listener thinks that the Buddha is actually speaking; thus, there are representations of words and meanings on their own mind. Although there is no mūla-dharmin to serve as the resembled names and so forth, it is similar to one's own internal mind, so there is no fault; it is like speaking of resembling a self, which resembles inwardly. The second says: It resembles the Buddha's anāsrava \[dharma\], not words and meanings; because there is nothing to resemble, the phrase "words and meanings" is used by association.
