This first characteristic of cognition arises because through avidyā one fails to understand that the characteristics of objects manifested by the manifesting consciousness are all false appearances without substantial nature; one initiates comprehension, clinging to them as real defilement or purity, which is named 'discriminating the pleasing, the non-pleasing, etc.' That is to say, clinging to defilement as inferior gives rise to a non-pleasing mind; if one clings to purity as superior, one gives rise to pleasing discrimination. Therefore the new translation says: 'gives rise to minds of pleasing and non-pleasing.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.3.37) - [Next: 3.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.3.39) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814~en-mt.3.38) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大乘起信論略述](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.1.114) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.3.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.3.38) · Pramāṇa
