大乘起信論義記 2.215

2.215

別釋中六相即為六段，各先標、後釋。此六之中，總有三對，謂初二為一對，謂事識中細惑，執境法為實故。六染中同是法執，地上菩薩所斷，亦入下五意內攝，以有依止義故。次二為一對，謂事識中麁惑，於前實境上復起貪瞋等惑，即是下入五意後別明意識，取著轉深計我我所等，六染中二乘等所斷也。後二為一對，謂依惑造業，苦報長淪也。

In the specific explanation, the six marks constitute six sections, each first indicating and then explaining. Among these six, there are altogether three pairs: the first two are one pair, referring to the subtle afflictions in the empirical consciousness, because they grasp external phenomena as real. Among the six defilements, these together constitute dharma-grasping, abandoned by bodhisattvas on the grounds, and are also subsumed within the five minds below, because they have the meaning of reliance. The next two are one pair, referring to the coarse afflictions in the empirical consciousness, where upon the preceding [conceived] real objects, they further give rise to afflictions such as craving and anger. That is, after entering the five minds below, it separately explains the mental consciousness, where grasping grows deeper, grasping the self and what belongs to the self, and so on; among the six defilements, these are abandoned by the two vehicles and others. The last two are one pair, referring to creating karma based on afflictions and sinking long in bitter retribution.
