宗鏡錄 50.16

50.16

問。百法數中。雖名義差別。窮原究本。但唯一識。經中。云何於命根中。說為三法壽煖識等。

Question: Within the enumeration of the hundred dharmas, although names and meanings differ, when tracing back to their ultimate source, there is only one consciousness. Why do the sūtras, in [explaining] the life-faculty, speak of it as three dharmas: lifespan, warmth, and consciousness?
