Hopkins' Translations: name and terminology

Comment: Jam-y#ang-shay-b#a holds that name (ming) in this the Mind-Only context means a term expressing that object (rang zhes rjod pa'i sgra), and although terminology (brda') usually has the same meaning as name, in order to avoid redundancy he takes it to mean a conceptual consciousness apprehending that object (rang 'dzin rtog pa). (This explanation of terminology is well-founded in the tradition since a common dictum is that names and conceptual consciousnesses engage their objects similarly.) {PH} verify change in note
