金剛般若經旨贊 2.150

2.150

Sūtra: “Past mind […] cannot be apprehended.” / Commentary: This is the explanation. The mind can transform objects, and objects in turn generate the mind; mind and objects condition each other to form conditional characteristics. If one conditions past objects, it is called the past mind; if one thinks of future objects, it is called the future mind; if one grasps present objects, it is called the present mind. Since the objects of the three times do not exist apart from the mind, and the ceased and unarisen are falsely non-abiding, therefore the minds of the three times, being ceased and unarisen, are also falsely non-abiding. Because none can be apprehended, all minds are said to be non-minds.
