| English | The meaning here is as follows. First of all, the yogin should contemplate those dharmas having a material form, imagined by others as being external objects, “Are these other than consciousness, or is it this consciousness itself appearing in that manner—just as in dream-state?” In that regard (i.e. if the position held is that they exist) outside of consciousness, one should think of them in terms of atoms. |
