### [2.179](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.2.179)

問：若然者，何故下因熏習中即現一切世間法耶？答：彼約依他似法，是此真心隨熏所作，無自體故，不異真如，故彼文云「以一切法即真實性故」也。今此約遍計所執實法故，無可現也。

> Question: If so, why is it that below, in the \[mirror of\] perfuming as cause, all worldly phenomena precisely appear? Answer: That is spoken with regard to dependent, resembling phenomena, which are produced by this true mind in accord with perfuming; because they lack an own-substance, they are not different from tathatā. Therefore, that text says: 'because all phenomena are precisely the true nature.' Here, it is spoken with regard to the substantially existent phenomena clung to through pervasive conceptualization; therefore, there is nothing that can be manifested.
