成唯識論演祕 4.78

4.78

Asaṅga's root treatise is fully cited in the Commentary. Asabhāva's commentary states: ''From the non-conceptual [absorption] and so on' means passing away from a higher realm and coming to be born in the desire realm. 'At that time the afflictions and so on' refers to greed, hatred, and so on. 'The initial consciousness defiled by [them]' refers to the initial consciousness of birth-existence at the time of linking up [the streams of] existence, because at that time it is defiled by all the afflictions of its own plane.'
