成唯識論演祕 2.57

2.57

Answer: The intent is to take the side of consciousness's transformation as proof. A certain opinion refutes this, saying: "The Commentary says that this passage states that the object cognized is transformed by consciousness and is not formed of external atoms; we do not rely on this now. If it has already shown that the object is transformed by internal consciousness, why does it then say below that the external objective condition of the eyes, etc., is logically non-existent? It is clear that this passage merely shows that the five faculties are transformed by consciousness."
