唯識二十論述記 1.58

1.58

答：無性釋云「『唯』聲為遣所取境義」，由彼無故，能取亦無，不遮心所，由彼與心，不相離故。如說若無心所有法，心未曾轉。經部轉計及上座部言：若爾，滅定何故唯心？是彼宗過。我大乘中，若處有心，必有心所諸相應法；若無心所相應法者，心亦定無。《成唯識》說：以心勝故，但說唯心。心所依心勢力生故，略且不說。瞿波釋云：此中「唯」言，為顯勝義，不為顯能義。以三界中心最勝故，如經說言：道唯護根，戒名沙門等。由識故三界生，故名勝。遂引頌言：諸法心為先，為勝及為顯，若人起淨心，說言及作事，樂從三善生，隨逐猶如影，諸法心為先，為勝及為顯，若人起染心，說言及作事，苦從三惡生，如輪隨牛脚。心相應故，說「唯心」言，亦攝心所。

Answer: Asamāhita explains: "The word 'only' is for the purpose of removing grasped objects." Because those [objects] do not exist, the grasper also does not exist; it does not exclude mental factors, because they are not separate from the mind. As it is said: if there were no dharmas that are mental factors, mind would never operate. The Sautrāntikas in their shifting tenets and the Sthaviras say: If so, why is the attainment of cessation (nirodhasamāpatti) only mind? That is a flaw in their school. In our Mahāyāna, wherever there is mind, there must be associated dharmas that are mental factors; if there are no associated dharmas of mental factors, mind also definitely does not exist. The Cheng weishi lun states: Because mind is predominant, it merely says "mind-only." Because mental factors arise through the power of mind, they are provisionally omitted for brevity. Gopa explains: The word "only" here is to reveal the predominant meaning, not to reveal capacity. Because mind is most predominant within the three realms, as a sūtra says: "The path is only guarding the sense faculties; moral discipline is called the śramaṇa," and so forth. Since the three realms arise due to consciousness, it is termed predominant. Then he cites a verse: "Mind precedes all dharmas; / It is predominant and luminous. / If a person with a pure mind / Speaks or acts, / Happiness arises from the three wholesome deeds, / Following along like a shadow. / Mind precedes all dharmas; / It is predominant and luminous. / If a person with a defiled mind / Speaks or acts, / Suffering arises from the three unwholesome deeds, / Like the wheel following the ox's hoof." Because they are associated with mind, the statement "mind-only" also includes mental factors.
