答。古釋云。正入滅定之時。雖無意識。然未滅之前。加行心中。願。我入滅之後。若有眾生合聞我說法。見我威儀。我當教化。以此願故。入定之後。擊發本識化相種子。生起現行。以平等性智。而能現起威儀。然平等性智。雖與第六願樂所現威儀而不相應。若欲起於平等之化。須平等性智也。已上猶是約行相分別。若就理而論。威儀即定。定即威儀。以色心其已久如故。

> Answer: Ancient explanations say: At the precise time of entering the cessation absorption, although there is no manovijñāna, before it ceased, in the preparatory citta, one made the vow: 'After I enter cessation, if there are sentient beings who ought to hear my teaching of the Dharma or see my deportment, I shall instruct and transform them.' Due to this vow, after entering concentration, the transformation-manifestation seeds in the fundamental consciousness are stimulated, producing active operations. Through the equality wisdom, deportment can be manifested and aroused. However, although the equality wisdom does not directly correspond with the deportment manifested through the vow and aspiration of the sixth, if one wishes to give rise to an equal transformation, the equality wisdom is necessary. The above is still a distinction made according to modes of activity. If discussed in terms of principle, deportment is itself concentration, and concentration is itself deportment, because form and citta have long been suchness.
