No April Fool’s post?
Vajragoni, before you go on I wish you would elaborate a little bit on how Abhūtaparikalpa can be seen as interchangeable with Ālayavijñāna. Does not false imagining arise from the habitual storehouse consciousness? Maybe I am missing something but it seems more like avidyā than ālayavijñāna.
False imagining (Abhūtaparikalpa) is the action that arises within the ālayavijñāna. Avidya clearly is the result here when one considers false thought constructions to be real. Heavy false thought constructions become concretized within the alaya-receptacle and sentient beings then mistakenly assume them to be an unchanging reality, thus perpetually acting and reacting upon them.
Helpful, thanks!
