成唯識論演祕 5.399

5.399

而有解云。一箇邊見緣上下生。屬前文者不然此屬下也。牒以為問緣上為常。下為無常。從多分說。四分常中大種與心非上下故。或依梵說名上無失。然闕下義。

Now there is an explanation stating: 'One view of extreme arises by taking the higher and lower as its intentional object.' Taking this as belonging to the preceding text is incorrect; this belongs to what follows. Taking it up to pose the question: Taking the higher as eternal and the lower as non-eternal is said in terms of the majority; among the fourfold partial eternalism, the great elements and mind are not higher and lower. Alternatively, calling Brahmā higher according to the teaching is without fault, but it lacks the meaning of 'lower'.
