7. It (consciousness) is not a triad of the cognizer, the cognized object, and the act of cognition, just as a new sprout does not appear in the sky. Nor is it consciousness, the conscious being, the cognized (object), and so on, just as a Khadira tree (acacia catechu) is not found in a pleasure garden.
