成唯識論演祕 7.7

7.7

Answer: Asabhāva's Commentary on the Mahāyānasaṃgraha, fascicle four, states: 'The dependent nature arises based on karma, afflictions, what is grasped, that which grasps, and the memory conforming to pervasive conceptualization.' It also states: 'As previously stated, that which grasps and what is grasped by the consciousnesses such as the body have false discrimination established as their nature.' It also states: 'Just like the deer's craving [for a mirage], which by the power of its own mental continuum establishes a resemblance of water, one should know that the nature of erroneous pervasive conceptualization of what is grasped and that which grasps is called the dependent nature.' From this, it is known that possessing the two grasps is in all cases called grasping.
