俱舍論記 7.65

7.65

「又諸世間至一因所起」者，此下別破，一約次第破、二約無用破、三約違世破。此下約次第破也。若謂諸法從一因生，應當頓起，因無別故。既現次第生，明非一因起。立量言：前法生位後法應生，以與前法因無別故，猶如前法。

"Furthermore, the various worlds... up to ...are not produced by a single cause": from here below is the specific refutation: first, refutation in terms of sequence; second, refutation in terms of uselessness; third, refutation in terms of contradiction with worldly experience. Below here is the refutation in terms of sequence. If dharmas arose from a single cause, they should arise simultaneously, because there is no difference in the cause. Since they are observed to arise sequentially, it is clear that they do not arise from a single cause. To formulate the syllogism: At the phase when the preceding dharma arises, the subsequent dharma should arise, because its cause is not different from that of the preceding dharma, just like the preceding dharma.
