「有謂善染至體非中有」者，答。趣唯無記，不通善、染，當《婆沙》評家義。若異此者，言通善、染，趣應相雜，於一趣中具成五趣業、煩惱故。五趣唯是有情數攝，不通外器，以此外器亦容五趣共受用故，還成雜亂，故非趣體。五趣體非中有，趣是所往，中有非是所往趣故，趣方便故，故非趣攝。

"Some say wholesome and defiled [...] the nature is not the intermediate state": the reply. Destinies are strictly indeterminate and do not extend to the wholesome or defiled; this corresponds to the position of the evaluators in the Mahāvibhāṣā. If it were otherwise, saying that they extend to the wholesome and defiled, the destinies would be mutually confused, because within a single destiny the karma and defilements of all five destinies are fully accomplished. The five destinies are subsumed strictly under the category of sentient beings and do not extend to the external vessel, because this external vessel is also capable of being shared and used by the five destinies; [otherwise] it would also result in confusion, and therefore is not the essential nature of a destiny. The essential nature of the five destinies is not the intermediate state: a destiny is that which is gone to, whereas the intermediate state is not a destiny that is gone to, but an expedient means toward a destiny; therefore it is not subsumed under a destiny.
