7.62

「一切世間至一因所起」者,此下釋第四句。一切世間諸法從因緣生。如塗灰外道,執自在天是作者等,能生諸法。如勝論外道,執我是實能為作者,生苦、樂等。如數論,勝性三法為體,謂薩埵、剌闍、答摩,亦名自性,為諸法因,非自在等一因所起。

"The entire world... up to ...is not produced by a single cause": from here below explains the fourth line. All worldly dharmas arise from causes and conditions. For instance, the ash-smearing non-Buddhists hold that Īśvara is the creator and so forth, able to produce all dharmas. The Vaiśeṣika non-Buddhists hold that the Self is a real substance capable of being the agent, producing suffering, pleasure, and so forth. The Sāṃkhya takes the primary nature (pradhāna) composed of three entities—namely sattva, rajas, and tamas, also called prakṛti—as the cause of all dharmas. They are not produced by a single cause such as Īśvara.
