Question: That the ten thousand dharmas are mind-only is attested by more than one reliable proof. A verse in the Laṅkāvatārasūtra states: / 'Dharmas above and below in the three realms, / I say are precisely citta. / Apart from mental dharmas, / Nothing else can be found.' / If the four cardinal directions, zenith, and nadir are all one's own citta, then upon what does one abide in walking, standing, sitting, and lying down? If there is no environmental retribution in which to dwell, how is primary retribution established?
