7.91

Asaṅga's root treatise elucidates these similes fully as listed in the Commentary; Asabhāva's commentary should now be cited here. The Treatise says regarding the "simile of the illusion": "Just as in reality there is no elephant, yet there is the objective sphere of an illusory elephant; the dependently arisen nature is also like this: although there are no six objective sensory realms of form and the like, when conceptualized, there is the appearance of resembling six objective sensory realms."
