| In classical [[Buddhist epistemology]], [[Abhidharma]], and [[tantric]] [[exegesis]], "[[eye consciousness]]" ([[Sanskrit]]: [[cakṣurvijñāna]]; [[Pali]]: [[cakkhuviññāṇa]]; [[Tibetan]]: [[མིག་གི་རྣམ་ཤེས་]], [[mig gi rnam shes]]; [[Chinese]]: [][眼識]], [[yǎnshí]]) is the first of the [[six sensory consciousnesses]] ([[ṣaḍvijñānakāya]]). It is defined as the distinct [[subjective awareness]] that arises [[in dependence]] upon the [[visual faculty]] or [[eye organ]] ([[cakṣurindriya]]) as its dominant support ([[adhipati-pratyaya]]) and [[visual form]] or [[color-and-shape]] ([[rūpa]]) as its [[objective condition]] ([[ālambana-pratyaya]]). Together, the [[eye faculty]], [[form]], and [[eye consciousness]] constitute the [[visual]] triad within the [[eighteen psycho-physical elements]] ([[aṣṭādaśa dhātavaḥ]]): the [[eye element]] ([[cakṣurdhātu]]), the [[form element]] ([[rūpadhātu]]), and the [[eye-consciousness element]] ([[cakṣurvijñānadhātu]]). | In classical [[Buddhist epistemology]], [[Abhidharma]], and [[tantric]] [[exegesis]], "[[eye consciousness]]" ([[Sanskrit]]: [[cakṣurvijñāna]]; [[Pali]]: [[cakkhuviññāṇa]]; [[Tibetan]]: [[མིག་གི་རྣམ་ཤེས་]], [[mig gi rnam shes]]; [[Chinese]]: [[眼識]], [[yǎnshí]]) is the first of the [[six sensory consciousnesses]] ([[ṣaḍvijñānakāya]]).
