成唯識論演祕 4.632

4.632

論云：「又有性者，安立有義，能持有義。若無性者，安立無義，能持無義，故皆名法。由彼意識於有性義，若由此義而得安立，即以此義起識了別。若於二種不由二義起了別者，不應說意緣一切義，取一切義。」

The Treatise says: "Furthermore, what has existence posits existent referents and can hold existent referents. What lacks existence posits nonexistent referents and can hold nonexistent referents; therefore, all are named dharmas. Because that mental consciousness, with respect to existent referents, if it is posited by such a referent, gives rise to consciousness to cognize by means of that referent. If, with respect to the two kinds, it did not give rise to cognition by means of the two referents, one should not say that the manas conditions all referents and grasps all referents."
