成唯識論演祕 3.964

3.964

釋曰：表造善、惡生上下趣，所以冷觸上下有異。問《瑜伽論》云：識初託處即名完心，即從此處最後捨命，何乃不同？答有二釋：一云外相冷觸下上不同，識於心處與其上下一時頓捨。二云若造善者從下漸捨至完心藏後從上捨，造惡翻善，由此完心實最後捨。上下據彼捨命前相，理亦無違。

The explanation says: It manifests that doing good or bad leads to rebirth in higher or lower destinies; hence the cold tactile sensation differs as to upper or lower. Question: The Yogācārabhūmi says: 'The place where consciousness first alights is called the complete heart, and life is abandoned last of all from this very place.' Why then does it differ? Answer: There are two explanations: First, it is said that the external sign of the cold tactile sensation differs as to upper and lower, whereas consciousness is abandoned all at once from the heart, together with its upper and lower [parts]. Second, it is said that for those who do good, it is abandoned gradually from below up to the receptacle of the complete heart, and afterwards abandoned from above; for those who do evil, it is the reverse of good. Thus the complete heart is indeed abandoned last. Upper and lower refer to those signs preceding the abandonment of life; thus in principle there is no contradiction.
