### [67.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.67.17)

偈答。現見如夢中。見所見不俱。見時不分別。云何言現見。諸凡夫人。煩惱夢中有所見事。皆如夢中。如現見色。不知色義。以後時意識分別。然後了知。意識分別時。無眼等識。先滅故。以一切法。念念不住故。以見色時無彼意識。意識起時無彼眼識。

> The verse answers: / Directly seeing is like within a dream; / The seeing and what is seen are not simultaneous. / When seeing, there is no conceptual discrimination; / How can one say there is direct seeing? / For all ordinary persons, things seen in the dream of defilements are all like things in a dream. Like directly seeing form without knowing the meaning of form; it is only through subsequent discrimination by the manovijñāna that one afterwards cognizes it. When the manovijñāna discriminates, the eye-consciousness and other \[sense-consciousnesses\] do not exist, because they have already ceased, for all phenomena do not abide for a single instant. This is because when seeing form, that manovijñāna does not exist; when the manovijñāna arises, that eye-consciousness does not exist.
