「謂唯五蘊」者,答。劫謂時分,時無別體,約法以明,故以五蘊為體。故《婆沙》一百三十五云「劫體是何?有說是色。引證(云云)。」如是說者,晝夜等位無不皆是五蘊生滅,以此成劫。劫體亦然。然劫既通三界時分,故用五蘊、四蘊為性。
"It is merely the five skandhas" is the answer. A kalpa refers to a division of time; time has no separate real entity, but is clarified in reference to conditioned phenomena; therefore it takes the five skandhas as its entity. Hence the Vibhāṣā, fascicle 135, says: "What is the entity of a kalpa? Some say it is matter. Citation of proof, etc." The correct statement is: the states of day, night, and so forth are without exception all the arising and ceasing of the five skandhas, and through these a kalpa is formed. The entity of a kalpa is likewise. However, since a kalpa pervades the time divisions of the three realms, it takes the five skandhas and the four skandhas as its nature.
