<Buddhism>
the universal（共相） ----------- the particular（自相）
(e.g. contact, attention, (e.g. intention, determination,
feeling, perception, volition) mindfulness, concentration, insight)
sees the flame of a candle ---- sees the flame of a candle
as an entity (something as a succession of many images
long lasting which is
separated from the rest)
mental construction ----------- reality as it is (suchness)
(representation of mind)
mind consciousness ---------- store consciousness and sense
consciousness (without influence
of mind consciousness)
conditioned phenomena ----- unconditioned
(e.g. dreams, illusions,
bubbles, images)
* Store consciousness and sense consciousness (without influence of mind consciousness) can directly touch the particular. (The universal is made of the particular.)
* Buddha said, "All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, images like dew drop or like electric lightning. You should train yourself to look at them that way." (from Diamond Sutra)
