【摩㝹賒】《文句》：「此云意，昔頂生王初化，諸有所作，當善思惟善憶念。即如王教，諸有所作，先思惟憶念，故名為意。又人能息意，能修道，得達分。又人名慢，五道中多慢。」《毘曇論》云：「何故人道名摩㝹沙？此有八義：一聰明，二為勝，三意微細，四正覺，五智慧增上，六能別虛實，七聖道正器，八聰明業所生故。」

> 【Manuṣya】 The Wenju says: "Here translated as 'mind' (manas). Formerly, when King Māndhātṛ first transformed \[the world, he said:\] 'In all that you do, you should reflect well and remember well.' According with the king's instruction, in all that they did they first reflected and remembered; hence they were called 'mind' (manuṣya). Furthermore, humans are able to still the mind, are able to cultivate the path, and obtain the factor of realization. Furthermore, humans are called 'conceited' (māna); among the five destinies, they have much conceit." The Abhidharma treatises say: "Why is the human destiny called manuṣya? There are eight meanings: first, cleverness; second, superiority; third, subtlety of mind; fourth, correct awakening; fifth, superior wisdom; sixth, the ability to distinguish truth and falsehood; seventh, being a proper vessel for the noble path; and eighth, being generated by clever karma."
