Since cause and effect differ in nature, this proves non-existence. Sengzong says: He again provides an explicit metaphor to clarify non-existence within the cause. Just as the coming together of the four factors produces consciousness: if you search for consciousness within empty space and light, how could it be found? Zhixiu says: Fourth, he directly explains the principle of a cause producing an effect. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 67.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.67.17) - [Next: 67.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.67.19) - [Up: 67](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.67) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.67.18) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.67.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.67.18) · Pramāṇa
