答：即蘊計我，相實隨蘊；離蘊計我，既無本質相，隨能變心王、心所以判於蘊，即四蘊攝，《疏》言同分。且據離蘊所計之我，當情顯現遍常之相，名法同分；不說所變相分之體在法同分。又所變相無多差別，相分是假，故同分收，同分寬故。前解為勝。

Answer: For grasping a self based on the aggregates, the nimitta truly follows the aggregates; for grasping a self apart from the aggregates, since there is no mūla-dharmin, the nimitta is assigned to aggregates according to the transforming primary minds and mental factors, and thus is subsumed under the four aggregates. The Commentary says 'common character' (sabhāga): this is tentatively based on the self grasped apart from the aggregates, where the aspect of all-pervasiveness and permanence appearing before the mind is called the dharma-sabhāga; it does not say that the substance of the transformed nimitta-bhāga is in dharma-sabhāga. Furthermore, the transformed nimitta has few distinctions, and the nimitta-bhāga is nominal, so it is subsumed under sabhāga, because sabhāga is broad. The former explanation is superior.
