唯識二十論述記 1.7

1.7

Refuting the initial grasping at existence, it affirms that there is the one mind of internal consciousness, thereby dispelling the later view of emptiness. Therefore, the present treatise stands squarely in the middle path, being the definitive teaching of the third period, as explained in texts such as the Saṃdhinirmocana and Yogācārabhūmi. The single-period or five-period teachings spoken of previously are all without scriptural basis and cannot be relied upon, as has already been broadly expounded in a separate chapter.
