shes pa'i kun rdzob
mental conventionalities; Comment: This is one of three divisions of conventionalities: (1) imputational conventionalities (btags pa'i kun rdzob); (2) mental conventionalities (shes pa'i kun rdzob); (3) verbal conventionalities (brjod pa'i kun rdzob). Jik-may-dam-chö-gya-tso also identifies "imputational conventionalities" as imputational natures that are imputed by conceptuality to be truly existent whereas they are not truly existent; "mental conventionalities" as other-powered natures, which are illustrated by "unreal ideation" (yang dag pa ma yin pa'i kun rtog) since it is the principal other-powered nature, and thus come to be called "mental"; "verbal conventionalities" as thoroughly established natures which, although they ultimately cannot be taken as objects by way of terms and conceptual consciousnesses, are suitable to be expressed through many verbal forms such as thusness and so forth.
