成唯識論演祕 2.452

2.452

此第二釋，於此釋中典有三意：一云是現行者，《顯揚》六處俱是現行，現行即是種識所持；二云是現行者，《顯揚》六處是第六現，六現者第八現識，第八現識識種所持；三云是現行者，《顯揚》六處是現行也，識所持者，六現是彼第八識持。從所持說能持等者，六現現八俱名所持，八種持故。雖有三義前解為本，後二理通。

This is the second explanation. In this explanation, the texts have three meanings: One says that as for the active ones, the six sensory bases in the Prakaraṇāryavācā are all active, and the active ones are sustained by the seed consciousness. The second says that as for the active ones, the six sensory bases in the Prakaraṇāryavācā are the six active ones, and the six active ones are the eighth active consciousness, which is sustained by the consciousness seeds. The third says that as for the active ones, the six sensory bases in the Prakaraṇāryavācā are active; as for "sustained by consciousness," the six active ones are sustained by that eighth consciousness. Explaining the sustainer in terms of what is sustained, both the six active ones and the active eighth are called "what is sustained," because they are sustained by the seeds of the eighth. Although there are three meanings, the previous interpretation is primary, and the latter two are logically tenable.
