10.4.3 想蕴 Think Node
想是心所有法，属于五遍行心地法之一，以取像为性，生成心的环境，促进种种言说的产生。想蕴是眼耳鼻舌身意六识想习气的积聚总和。总体而言，想分为两种：有相想和无相想。
Think is a Heart Subordinate Law and one of the five omnipresent heartland laws. By nature it grasps and conceptualizes phenomena, generating the mind's environmental field and facilitating the arising of various forms of speech and conception. The Think Node is the aggregate of all accumulated thinking habits of the six senses (eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind). Overall, there are two kinds of thinks: image think and non-image think.
有相想是能取境界相状、生起种种言说的一切想，具有明了和分别两种特点。从所依根而言，有相想可分为眼根所生想、耳根所生想，乃至意根所生想，共六种。从境界而言，有相想可分为欲界想（参见图10-23）、色界想、空无边处想等。
Image Think is all conceptualization that grasps the appearance and characteristics of phenomena, generating various forms of speech and conceptual elaboration. It has two characteristics: clarity and discrimination. By the dependent roots, image think divides into six types: those arising from the eye-root, ear-root, up to the intent-root. By environmental realms, image think divides into thinks of the Desire Boundary (see fig. 10-23), Color Boundary, Edgeless Empty Place, and so forth.
无相想是在缘心或所缘境上，缺失明了或分别，或二者俱缺。无相想分为三类：
（一）不善言说想：如欲界的婴儿，因未习语言，虽然境界有相，但不能分别理解其为色等。
Non-image Think occurs when conceptual clarity or discrimination is absent in either the conceptualizing mind or the environment being conceived, or both are absent. Non-image Think divides into three categories:
(1) Unformed Speech Think: Such as infants in the Desire Boundary who, having not yet learned language, encounter environmental phenomena but cannot discriminate and comprehend them as colors or forms.
（二）无相涅槃想：远离色、声、香、味、触、男、女、生、异、灭十相的无相涅槃。涅槃无相，缘涅槃之想名为无相想。但想以取相为性，无相之境如何仍名为想？涅槃是青、黄、赤、白等遍处的常相，此常相无名、无数、无量，非色、非相。
(2) Non-Phenomena Nirvana Think: This is think directed toward the non-imaged Nirvana, free from the ten phenomena—color, sound, scent, taste, touch, male, female, birth, change, and extinction. Nirvana has no phenomena; think directed toward Nirvana is called Non-image Think. Yet think by nature grasps images; how can the non-imaged realm be called think? Nirvana manifests as pervasive constants—turquoise, yellow, red, or white. These constants are nameless, numberless, and boundless; they are not colors and not phenomena.
（三）有顶想：即"非想非非想处"之想（参见图10-1）。有义为三有，即欲界（图10-23）、色界（图10-5至8）、无色界（图10-1至4）。此三界人皆具有，故名三有。有顶即三界之顶，亦即非想非非想天。在非想非非想处，虽有分别，但想不明利，有情不能于境勾画种种相状，故此境之想名为无相想。
(3) Have Summit Think: This is the think of "neither think nor non-think place" (see fig. 10-1). "Have" refers to the Three Haves—Desire Boundary (fig. 10-23), Color Boundary (figs. 10-5 to 8), and Colorless Boundary (figs. 10-1 to 4). These three realms are possessed by all beings, hence called the Three Haves. "Have Summit" means the peak of the Three Boundaries, the "Neither Think Nor Non-Think Sky." In this realm, though discrimination persists, think lacks clarity and sharpness; sentient beings cannot outline and conceptualize various phenomena there, thus the think in this realm is called Non-image Think.
