Answer: Although they mutually generate each other, objects are transformed from consciousness. Furthermore, an ancient commentary explains: Objects only arise through discrimination by the mind; because they arise from the mind, it is called 'consciousness-only.' Consciousness does not arise through discrimination by objects; because it is not from objects, it cannot be called 'object-only.'
