2.365
既非自然,必是因緣。因緣之義無常生滅,此有彼無,體非周遍,豈同覺性湛然常住、圓滿十方?行相相違,故云云何合因緣性。
Since it is not spontaneity, it must be causes and conditions. The principle of causes and conditions is impermanent arising and ceasing—here existent, there non-existent, its substance not all-pervasive. How could it be identical to the nature of awareness, serene, permanently abiding, and filling the ten directions? Their characteristics conflict; hence [Ānanda] asked, "How does it accord with the nature of causes and conditions?"
