三种相

(三種相, 三种相)

The three kinds of appearance:

(1) In logic, the three kinds of percepts: (a) [lang id =1028]標相 inferential, as fire is inferred from smoke; (b) [lang id =1028]形相 formal or spatial, as length, breadth, etc.; (c) [lang id =1028]體相 qualitative, as heat is in fire, etc.

(2) (a) [lang id =1028]假名相 names, which are merely indications of the temporal; (b) [lang id =1028]法相 dharmas, or "things"; (c) [lang id =1028]無相相 the formless-- all three are incorrect positions.
