10.74

什曰:若法定有則不生滅,若法全無亦不生滅,不生滅則與因緣相違。深經所說非有非無,非有非無故順因緣法也。生曰:說不違因緣理也。

[Kumāra]jīva says: If dharmas definitely existed, they would neither arise nor perish; if dharmas were completely non-existent, they would likewise neither arise nor perish; neither arising nor perishing would then contradict dependent origination. What the profound sūtras explain is neither existence nor non-existence; because it is neither existence nor non-existence, it conforms to the law of dependent origination. [Dao]sheng says: Its explanation does not contravene the principle of dependent origination.
