The “mind” is as an empty realm and also as a variable dharma, from which everything arises. Any appearance is not its appearance. It functions with the essence of nirvana and appears as the empty space.
The Flower Ganland Sutra, Vol. 5
『心』猶虛空界，亦如變化法，一切所依性，是相則非相；行於「涅槃性」，猶若虛空相。
《大方廣佛華嚴經》卷五
The sutra says mind not alayavijnana. Read carefully.

DeleteThe "true mind 真心" is the Alayavijnana;
it is without any form or appearance, so it is described as "the infinite space 猶如虛空."
Here, the "mind" refers to the true mind, Alayavijnana. Is this statement more satisfactory to you? Or would you like to discuss more? Thank you.
