c gi cn c i c li nhiu ln ni dung ny theo di tin trnh phn
tch tm l phn sau. Phn Anh ng c trch t bn "Treatise in Thirty
Verses on Mere-Consciousness" ca Swati Ganguly (57).
(01)
"Do gi lp nn ni c Ng v Php [ch th v i tng], c tt c s vt
hin tng, [nhng] tt c Ng v Php u nng vo thc m sinh ra ;
[bn cht ca] thc nng bin c ba [c tnh]".
(Because the ideas of the self [tman] and the elements [Dharma] are false,
the phenomenal appearances of all kinds arise. These appearances are
dependent upon the development [Parinma] of the consciousness. This
development is of three kinds).
(02)

"[ l] D thc v T lng cng vi Liu bit cnh. Trc ht l thc Ali-da, cng gi l D thc hay Nht thit chng".
(The maturing consciousness [Vipka], the consciousness that deliberates
[Manana], and the consciousness that discriminates [Vijnapti] the spheres of
objects. The first is the storehouse - consciousness [layavijnna] which is
also called retributive consciousness [Vipkavijnna] and consciousness
carrying all seeds [Sarvabijaka]).
(03)
"[c tnh ca n l] bt kh tri, chp th v duy tr, [nhng] trong s biu
bit cc x [cc quan nng ca cn thn] n thng biu hin cng vi xc,
tc , th, tng v t ; [v trong cc th] n ch tng ng vi x th".
(It is not aware of what it "grasps" and "receives", of its place and of its
discriminatory power. It is always associated with touch, attention,
sensation, thought and volition. But it is always associated with sensation of
indifference only".
(04)
"Thc ny v cc tm s ca n l v ph v v k, [n] tri chy nh dng
sng, [khi t n] qu v A La Hn [th tt c] u bung x".
(It is unobscured and undefined. The case of Mental Contact is also like this.
It is perpetual evolution like a violent current, and is renounced in the state
of an arhat).
(05)
"Thc nng bin th hai gi tn l Mt na, nng ta vo v duyn vi thc
[A li da] kia, nn tnh v tng ca n l suy ngh [t lng]".
(The second evolving consciousness is called manas. It functions with
storehouse - consciousness as its support and object. It has essentially the
characteristics of "Cognition").
(06)

"[N] thng biu hin cng vi 4 phin no, [ l] : ng si, ng kin, ng

mn v ng i, [cng nh] cng vi xc... vn vn..."
(It is always accompanied by four defilements, i.e. ignorance about self,
belief in self together with pride in self, and love of self. It is associated also
with others [mental associates] like touch etc...)
(07)
"Tnh ca thc Mt na l hu ph v k, sinh khi u th chp ng ,
[cho n khi t n] qu v A La Hn, Dit tn nh v o xut th th n
khng cn [hin hu] na".
(It belongs to the difiled-undefiled category ; it works along the dhtu or
bhumi in which the sentient being is born and attached ; it ceases to exist at
the stage of arhat, in the meditation of annihilation and on the supramundane
path).
(08)
"Thc nng bin th ba c su loi sai khc, tnh, tng u phn bit [c
th] thin, bt thin, v v k".
(This third development of consciousness has six different categories ;
perception of the object is the nature and characteristics of these six
consciousness ; they are good, bad, and neither of them).
(09)
"y l cc tm s : bin hnh, biu bit [hay bit cnh], thin, phin no,
bt nh, tng ng vi ba th".
(They are associated with universal mental factors, with the special and good
metal factors, with the defilements ; along with the secondary defilements
and the indeterminate mental factors ; all these are associated with the three
feelings).
(10)
"Trc, tm s bin hnh l Xc v.v...; ri, tm s bit cnh l : Dc, Thng
gii, Nim, nh, v Hu. Cnh b duyn khng ging nhau".

(First, universal mental factors are Mental Contact and so forth ; next,
special mental factors, i.e. Desire, Resolve, Memory, Meditation and
Wisdom : the objects caused by the special mental factors are different).
(11)
"Thin tm s l : Tn, tm, qu, v tham, v sn, v si, tinh cn, khinh an,
khng phng dt, hnh x v bt hi".
(The good mental factors are belief, sense of shame, sense of integrity, the
three roots of non-covetousness and so forth ; diligence, composure of mind,
vigilence, equanimity, and non-injury).
(12)
"Phin no l : Tham, sn, si, mn, nghi, c kin ; ty phin no l : phn,
hn, ph, no, tt, xan".
(The defilements are covetousness, anger, delusion, conceit, doubt and false
views ; the secondary defilements are fury, enmity, hypocricy, vexation,
envy and parsimony).
(13)
"Cung, sim v hi, kiu, v tm v v qu, tro c v hn trm, bt tn v
gii i".
(Deception, duplicity, harmfulness, pride, shamelessness, non-integrity,
restlessness, conceit, unbelief and indolence).
(14)
"Phng dt v tht nim, tn lon v bt chnh tri ; [v bn th] bt nh l :
hi, min, tm v t. Tm v t c th chia thnh hai loi".
(Carelessness, forgetfulness, distraction, thoughtlessness, the indeterminate
mental qualities are called remorse, drowsiness, reasoning and deliberation,
these two can be of two kinds).
(15)

"Nng vo thc cn bn [A li da], nm thc ty duyn hin, hoc chung

hoc chng chung, nh sng nng vo nc [m hin khi]".
(Depending on the root consciousness, the five consciousness originate in
accordance with various conditions, sometimes together, sometimes
separately, just as waves originate on water).
(16)
" thc thng hin khi, tr trong ci v tng v hai nh v tm, ng m
hay cht gi".
(The thought consciousness manifests at all times, except for those who are
born in the "Heaven without Thought", for those in the two mindless
meditations, and for those who are born in the states of unconsciousness).
(17)
"Cc thc ny chuyn bin [thnh] phn bit v [i tng] b phn bit; [v
rng], v c hai u l khng nn [ni] tt c l Duy thc".
(The various consciousness manifest in two divisions, perception and the
object of perception. Because of this, all these do not exist. Therefore, all is
Mere-Consciousness).
(18)
"Do tt c ht ging trong Tng thc, bin chuyn nh vy v nh vy; v
sc bin chuyn m sanh ra th gii biu bit v a th".
(From the consciousness containing the seeds, such and such development
occur; through the power to mutual influence, such and such distinction are
produced).
(19)
"Do cc tp kh - nghip, v cc chng t chp th ca c nng v s, nn
khi thn D thc qua i th tip tc ti sinh".

(The "force of habit" of previous action together with the "force of habit" of
the two concepts, engenders succeeding retribution after the previous
retribution has been exhausted).
(20)
"Do t tnh gi lp nn chp tt c l tht. T tnh gi lp [hay bin k] ,
t n khng tht c".
(From such and such imaginations, such and such things are imagined. What
is apprehended by this imagination, has no self-nature).
(21)
"Cn t tnh ty thuc [hay y tha khi] do cc duyn m sinh. [Bn cht ca]
t tnh tuyt i [vin thnh tht] v ty thuc [y tha] n xa la mi hnh thi
gi lp [bin k]".
(The self-nature that arises from dependence on others, is the [act of]
discriminations produced by causes and conditions ; the nature of ultimate
reality is different from this, as the former is perpetually free from the
former nature [i.e. imagined nature]).
(22)
"[T tnh] ty thuc v tuyt i va khc va khng khc, nh tnh cht v
thng, khng th thy rng y [l tuyt i] v kia [l ty thuc]".
(Therefore the nature of ultimate reality and the nature of dependence on
others are neither different nor non-different, just as impernanence is neither
different nor non-different from the impermanent dharmas. As long as this
(nature of ultimate reality) is not perceived, that (nature of dependence on
others) is also not perceived).
(23)
"Nng vo ba tnh ny m lp thnh ba v tnh, nn bn [mt ] ca Pht
ni rng tt c cc php l v tnh".

(On the basis of these threefold natures, threefold natures of naturelessness

are established. Therefore the Buddha preached with a secret that all
dharmas are devoid of self-nature).
(24)
"Trc ht l "tng v tnh", th hai l "v t nhin tnh", v sau cng l
xa la mi chp trc, tnh chp ng v php".
(The first one is with regard to characteristics ; the second is with regard to
origination ; the last is far away from the first [nature of imagination] in
which the natures of tman and Dharma are conceived).
(25)
"Nh th l "Thng ngha" ca cc php cng gi l "Nh tnh", v tnh
thng nh vy, nn [Thng ngha tnh] l Duy thc tht tnh".
(This absolute truth about all the dharmas is also the absolute Suchness.
Because it is always thus in its nature, it is the real nature of MereConsciousness).
(26)
"T khi sinh thc cha hin khi cho n khi hin khi v cu tr Duy thc
tnh, [trong thi gian ] cha th dit tr hai s chp th cn ng yn".
(Until the consciousness to seek to reside in the nature of mereconsciousness has not arisen, the attachments from the twofold concepts
cannot be suppressed)
(27)
"[Nu] hin tin cn nim v "Duy thc tnh" ; v, v cn c s c nh
th, th khng thc th an tr trong Duy thc".
(One who takes something before him as an object and declares it as the
nature of the Vijnaptimtrat, since he has something in his possession he is
not really residing in the Vijnaptimtrat).
(28)

"Cho n khi no i tng [b duyn] v tr [nng duyn] u c bung

x, khi xa la hai s chp th v an tr trong Duy thc".
(When in perceiving the sphere of objects, wisdom [jnana] no longer
conceives any idea of object, then that wisdom is in the state of
Vijnaptimtrat. Because both the object to be grasped and the act of
grasping by consciousness are not there).
(29)
"Khng s c v khng th t ngh, l tr xut th [v phn bit tr] ; v
xa la th [phin no chng] v trng [s tri chng], nn chng t
chuyn y".
(Not conceivable and not comprehensible is this supramundane wisdom ;
because of the abandonment of the two-fold grossness or incapabilities
revolution at substratum or transformation of layavijnna into wisdom is
obtained).
(30)
"y l ci v lu, bt t ngh, thin, thng, an lc, gii thot thn, i
Mu Ni, danh php".
(Such pure dhtu is unimaginable, good and eternal. It is a state of bliss, an
"emancipated body", called the famous law of the great sage [Skyamuni]).
