成唯識論演祕 1.93

1.93

That upon which the treatise relies refers to the Three Jewels. Asaṅga and Buddhasiṃha are called those who gave rise to it, as they respectively composed the root text and commentary of that Abhidharmasamuccaya. The words "from Buddha to following awakened ones" explain the reason why the Buddha and Saṅgha serve as the reliance; it omits mentioning the Dharma because noble disciples learn in accordance with the Dharma and transmit it to later people so the Dharma will not be cut off; thus the Saṅgha jewel also serves as the treatise's reliance. Speaking of "authoring the treatise without error" clarifies that the root author and commenting master were able to encompass the teaching and meaning with the three types of wisdom to compose the treatise. The Commentary briefly cites the intent, which is fully detailed in that treatise.
