成唯識論演祕 3.913

3.913

答：所立不成。依論量云：異熟識者是宗有法，可立為持壽、煖；識是法，猶如壽、煖而是其喻，因法可知。壽、煖喻上無彼可持壽煖識法，以彼壽、煖而體不是持壽煖識故成其過，故疏釋云以壽、煖非持壽煖識故。

Answer: Unestablished probandum. According to the treatise's inference: Maturation-consciousness is the subject (dharmin) of the thesis; that it can be established as sustaining life and warmth is the probandum (sādhya-dharma); consciousness is the property; like life and warmth is the example; the reason-property is known. In the example of life and warmth, that property of being a consciousness capable of sustaining life and warmth does not exist, because life and warmth themselves are not consciousnesses that sustain life and warmth; therefore the fault is established. Hence the Commentary explains: 'because life and warmth are not consciousnesses capable of sustaining life and warmth.'
