成唯識論演祕 4.230

4.230

釋：風能持水，水能持地，故風、水輪皆言等也。由器世間、大種、諸根能持有情、所遠、諸識故，器、大種、根等三類亦名增上。又《瑜伽論》五十六云：眼與眼識非正生因，唯建立因，是故此二俱時而有，餘根、餘識當知亦爾。

Explanation: Wind can sustain water, and water can sustain earth; therefore both the wind- and water-mandalas are mentioned with 'and so forth'. Because the receptacle world, primary elements, and sense-faculties can sustain sentient beings, derived matter, and consciousnesses, these three categories—receptacle, primary elements, and faculties—are also named dominant. Furthermore, the Yogācārabhūmi, fascicle 56, says: 'The eye is not the direct generating cause (janaka-hetu) of the eye-consciousness, but only the establishing cause (pratiṣṭhā-hetu); therefore, these two exist simultaneously. The other faculties and consciousnesses should be known to be likewise.'
