[translation-eng] {Hopkins} arising from stable predispositions

[comments] Comment: Saying ""stable predispositions"" distinguishes between consciousnesses polluted by a superficial cause of error and those which are not. Predispositions giving rise to direct perceptions are stable in the sense that their continuum will continue as long as does cyclic existence; those that give rise to wrong consciousnesses such as a sense consciousness seeing blue snow mountains or a conceptual consciousness apprehending sound as permanent are unstable in that their continuum can be adventitiously cut off.
