5.66
What is explained in the Commentary is meant to clarify that, based on the consciousness's degrees of oppression, gratification, and so forth, the distinctions of pleasure, joy, pain, grief, and so forth are formed; this does not preclude whether the mental consciousness has conceptual discrimination, or is slight, where only agitation is called pain and pleasure. Some who do not realize this rashly criticize it, saying: 'The later master explains that not only are the five consciousnesses extremely oppressive or gratifying because they are devoid of conceptual discrimination, but the pain and pleasure in the mind are also devoid of conceptual discrimination and are extreme, as explained in the treatise below; therefore one should generally say that conceptual discrimination and being extreme are called grief and joy, while being non-discriminative and slight are called pain and pleasure.'
