In Yogacara Buddhism, is discontinuity an illusion, and does change arise?

Buddhists talk about discontinuity > ordinary consciousness consists of the ***discrete*** cetas and illusion > all is illusion and the external objects are nothing but the creations > of our mind 1. In Yogacara, are all moments discontinuous -- the idea that nothing is ever the same thing twice and no two times meet -- and an illusion? 2. Does that mean that durations -- even-though consisting of impermanent events -- only *seem* to arise persist decay or cease? Why? I can intuitively see a link between 1 and 2, and I am in effect asking about that. Put another way: is the flow of time we psychologically experience itself permanent?
