On the basis of the ālaya-vijñāna being capable of sustaining the generic similarity so that the four great elements and the various sense-faculties do not deteriorate, the life-faculty is nominally established upon the citta and caitta-dharmas associated with the ālaya-vijñāna. This is nominally established generally upon citta and caitta-dharmas; in the desire and form realms, it is nominally established generally upon rūpa as well; in the formless realm, it is nominally established solely upon citta and caitta-dharmas." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.49](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1837.2.49) - [Next: 2.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1837.2.51) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1837.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1837~en-mt.2.50) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1837.2.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1837.2.50) · Pramāṇa
