7.63

答:若論影像,誠如所責。《疏》據其本,亦唯境相,故但言五,如五根等皆第八相。善惡趣體實唯報識,通能、所取資具等論,故趣亦相。世、數不例,思之。

Answer: If one discusses reflected images, it is indeed as you object. However, the Commentary relies on the fundamental [aspect], which is solely the objective nimitta; thus it speaks only of five, just as the five faculties and so on are all the nimitta-bhāga of the eighth [consciousness]. The essence of the good and evil destinies is actually only the retributive consciousness; since it extends to discussions of graspable and grasper, requisites, and so forth, destinies are also nimitta-bhāga. Time and number are not analogous; consider this.
