11.16

二、答，三：初、六八相從答，二：初、約能執從所執故不說。必執相應者，謂第七種子在第八中，第八見分為第七所執，故曰相應。況二識相依，互為根耶。《瑜伽》下，引證，可知。

Second, the answer, in three: first, answering by the mutual subsumption of the sixth and eighth [consciousnesses], with two: first, not speaking [of it] because the grasping subject follows the grasped object. 'Necessarily associated with grasping': this means that the seeds of the seventh are in the eighth, and the seeing-part of the eighth is grasped by the seventh; hence it is said to be associated. How much more so since the two consciousnesses rely on each other and serve mutually as faculties? From 'The Yogācāra' below: citing proof; it is understandable.
