### [10.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.10.26)

「二者、是人見末無因。何以故？是人於生既見其根，知人生人、悟鳥生鳥，烏從來黑、鵠從來白，人天本竪、畜生本橫，白非洗成、黑非染造，從八萬劫無復改移，今盡此形亦復如是。而我本來不見菩提，云何更有成菩提事？當知今日一切物象皆本無因。」

> "Second, this person sees that the outcome lacks a cause. Why is this? Since this person has seen their roots in life, he knows that humans give birth to humans and realizes that birds give birth to birds; that crows have always been black and swans have always been white; that humans and gods have always stood upright and animals have always walked horizontally; that whiteness is not made by washing, nor blackness created by dyeing; and that through eighty thousand eons there has been no further alteration, and so it will be until the end of this physical form. 'Yet I originally have not seen bodhi; how could there ever be the achievement of bodhi? You should know that today all phenomena originally lack a cause.'"
