A deconstruction of the gnostic syllable huum 欇帤, explained in terms of its component sounds h, a, uu and m (as given in Amoghavajra's 'Explaining the Guiding Principle' Yiliqushi 棟庯缱 [T 1003]). These sounds are considered in terms of standard meaning 夝, available to ordinary people; ultimate meaning 缱, known to the Tathaagatas; and a composite meaning 崌缱 which synthesizes the standard and ultimate meanings. According to the standard meaning, 'h' is causes (hetva 場), 'a' is "the mother of all sounds" (廜氵擵曣; see also 垻帤), 'uu' is lack (uuna 懝尭), and '.m' is self (aatman 変). The ultimate meaning for 'h' is that first causes are unobtainable; 'a' is the absolute as defined in the Maadhyamikakaarikas 拞榑 [T.1654], namely, it is all-pervasive just as 'a' pervades all sounds, and so is characterised as pure being 桳, inherently null 嬻 and uncreated 晄惗; 'u' ultimately means that no thing is without (堦愗彅朄懝尭晄壜屘); and '.m' stands for no thing having permanent self-existence. Kuukai concludes that 'h' is the body of dharmas 朄恎, 'a' is the body of reward 曬恎, 'uu' denotes emanated bodies 滀恎 and '.m' is the historical body 壔恎. [Credit] is(entry)

桞幆 [py] wei2shi4 [wg] wei-shih [ko] yusik [ja] 儐僀僔僉 yuishiki ||| (citta-maatra). "Consciousness-only (vij~napti-maatrataa)." The theory that all existence is nothing but consciousness, and therefore there is nothing that lies outside of the mind. This Indian Mahaayaana school of thought arose in great part as a reaction to the teachings of emptiness expounded in the praj~naapaaramitaa sutras and in the writings of the school of Maadhyamika 拞鎂攈, to demonstrate the possibility and methods for the attainment of liberation through yogic techniques. Therefore, Consciousness-only was a major component of the thought of the school of Yogaacaara 囡壘峴攈. The Vij~naanavaadins explained the regularity and coherence of sense impressions as due to an underlying store of perceptions (aalaya-vij~naana) 垻棅栯幆 evolving from the accumulation of traces of earlier sense perceptions. These are active, and produce impressions 庬巕 similar to themselves, according to a regular pattern, as seeds produce plants. Each being possesses a store of perceptions and beings which are generically alike will produce similar perceptions from their stores at the same time. Its doctrine reduces all existence to one hundred elements (朄 dharmas) into five divisions, namely, mind, mental function, material, not concomitant with mind and unconditioned, dharmas. According to this school, the external world is created when the aalaya (storehouse) consciousness is influenced ('perfumated') 孫 by "seeds" or effects of good and evil deeds. Another important contribution of the Consciousness-only thinkers was that of the three natures of imaginary, provisional and real. See sanxing 嶰惈 for details.
The major framework of Consciousness-only theory was developed by Maitreya 淺栌 and the two brothers Vasubandhu 悽恊 and Asa.nga 柍挊 in such treatises as the Abdhidharma-ko`sa-bhaasya 嬩幧榑, the Tri.m`sikaa Vij~naptimaatrataasiddhi.h (Thirty Verses on Consciousness-only) 桞幆嶰廫桉 and the Yogaacaara-bhuumi-`saastra 囡壘巘抧榑.

Since Vasubandhu passed away without having ever written explanatory commentary on these verses, succeeding generations of scholars engaged in extensive debate over their interpretation, to the extent that various schools of Consciousness-only developed. Among these interpretations, it was that by Dharmapaala 岇朄 which came to be taken as orthodox.

The Yogaacaara 囡壘峴攈 school of Indian Buddhism, which together with the Middle Way (Maadhyamika; 拞鎂攈) school, represented one of the two main branches of Mahaayaana philosophy. Its great teachers in India were Asa.nga (fourth century CE) 柍挊丒柍拝 and his brother Vasubandhu 悽恊. When Asa.nga's works were first translated into Chinese in the sixth century CE, the school was known as Shelun 潗榑廆, but eventually it was absorbed into the school of the great Chinese translator-monk Hsüan-tsang 尯汍 (596-664). Hsüan-tsang's school was known as the Fa-hsiang ['dharma-characteristic'] school, after this main feature of its teachings. [Credit] acm(entry)
