15.65

1. Analogy. The treatise: 'The direction does not turn': the east never momentarily turns into the west; it is merely that a disoriented person conceives it to have the appearance of the west. The Yuanjue jing says: 'Just as a disoriented person mistakes the four directions.' East exemplifies the true mind; west exemplifies the five aggregates, and so forth; not turning exemplifies thoughtlessness.
