答。古釋云。各有二義。一是異熟。二是長養。且如眼根者。如過去業。招今世眼。名異熟眼。於今世時。因飲食等。長小令大。養瘦令肥。名長養眼。餘五根亦然。

> Answer: An ancient commentary states: Each possesses two meanings. The first is maturation (vipāka); the second is nourishment (aupacayika). Take, for instance, the eye faculty: karma of the past bringing forth the eye of the present life is called the maturation eye; in the present life, making the small grow large and the thin become plump due to food and drink is called the nourished eye. The remaining five faculties are also like this.
