Sanskrit: {LCh,ME,MSA,MV}ālaya-vijñāna
Comment: Laya means basis; it is derived from the Sanskrit verbal root li, which means providing support or basis. Ā is taken as meaning all. Vijñāna means consciousness. The verbal root jña means know; na is an ending that means way or means — the means of understanding; vi means individually or in detail. Candrakīrti takes the term as referring to that which is to be minded or known in detail, that is to say, the emptiness; see MED, p. 617.
