問：若約此義，用從真起，何說轉識現？答：轉識即梨耶中轉相方起，現識現諸境界，此識即是真妄和合。若隨流生死，即妄有功能；妄雖有功，離真不立。若返流出纏，真有功能；真雖有功，離妄不顯。故約緣起和合識中說其用也。

> Question: If, according to this meaning, function arises from the real, why is it said that the evolving consciousness manifests \[it\]? Answer: The evolving consciousness is precisely when the evolving aspect within the ālayavijñāna first arises, and the manifesting consciousness manifests all objective realms; this consciousness is precisely the composite of the real and the deluded. If it accords with the flow of saṃsāra, then the deluded has efficacy; though the deluded has efficacy, apart from the real it cannot be established. If it reverses the flow to emerge from entanglement, the real has efficacy; though the real has efficacy, apart from the deluded it is not manifested. Therefore, its function is explained with reference to the composite consciousness of dependent origination.
