大乘起信論略述 1.55

1.55

Treatise: "All phenomena […] the attributes of objective realms." Commentary: Below, this reveals reconciling attributes to show the ultimate. Here there are three [parts]: first, directly resolving doubts and attachments; next, concluding the phenomena back to the ultimate; finally, concluding that the ultimate is free from predication. This is the first. That is to say, someone doubts: "As stated earlier, all phenomena are only the one mind. If this nature of the mind neither arises nor ceases, then there should be no differentiated attributes of phenomena. Why, then, do phenomena have differentiations?" Therefore, this explanation says: The differentiations of phenomena arise solely based on the mind of deluded thought of imagined nature. If one is free from the deluded mind, there are no differentiated attributes of deluded objective realms.
