「謂金剛等至而見相似」者，釋。謂金剛等，有擲、未擲時差別故，故亦有異。就擲之中復有差別，若強力擲即速墮，若弱力擲即遲墮。又解：若強力擲，遠故遲墮；若弱力擲，近故速墮。時差別故，而有異相。由斯道理，大種轉變差別義成，從強言大。造色不說自成。諸行相似剎那剎那相續生時，前後相望，麁相而觀雖復無多差別，細而言之非無有異。

> Regarding "That is, a diamond, etc. ... and seen to be similar": this is the explanation. That is, for a diamond, etc., because there are distinctions between the time when it is thrown and when it is not yet thrown, there is also alteration. Within throwing, there is further distinction: if thrown with strong force, it falls quickly; if thrown with weak force, it falls slowly. Another interpretation: if thrown with strong force, because it goes far, it falls slowly; if thrown with weak force, because it is near, it falls quickly. Because of temporal distinctions, there is the characteristic of alteration. By this principle, the meaning of the distinction of the transformation of the great elements is established; speaking from the predominant, they are called 'great.' The derived form is established without speaking. When formations arise in unbroken succession in similar moment by moment, looking from earlier to later, although if viewed in coarse terms there is not much distinction, if spoken of minutely, it is not without alteration.
