俱舍論疏 12.152

12.152

論「此三災刀至亦無餘在」，述所壞器，極微亦盡。《婆沙》一百三十三說：火災起時，有說七日先隱持雙，先有一日出，世界壞時，後六日漸出，便壞世界。有說一日分為七日。有說一日成七倍勢。有說七日先藏地下，後漸出現。如是說者，有情類業增上力令世間成，至劫末時業力盡故，隨於近處有災火生，乃至梵宮皆被焚燒。水災起時，有說三定邊雨熱灰水，能壞世界。有說從下水輪踊出。如是說者，諸有情類業增上力令世界成，至劫末時業力盡故，隨於近處有災水生，由彼因緣世界便壞。風災起時，有說從四定邊風起，能壞世界。有說從下風輪有猛風起。如是說者，諸有情類業增上力令世界成，至劫末時業力盡故，隨於近處有災風生，至遍淨天皆被散壞。此論三災，多非《婆沙》正義，論師意別。

The treatise says: "These three disaster-knives … nothing remains." This relates that in the receptacle [world] that is destroyed, even the atoms are exhausted. The Vibhāṣā, scroll 133, states: "When the fire disaster arises, some say that the seven suns were previously concealed by Yugandhara; initially one sun rises, and when the world is destroyed, the remaining six suns gradually emerge, thus destroying the world. Some say that one sun divides into seven suns. Some say that one sun acquires sevenfold strength. Some say that the seven suns were previously hidden beneath the earth and gradually appear afterward. The correct explanation is: the predominant power of the karma of sentient beings causes the world to form; when the end of the kalpa is reached, because the power of karma is exhausted, disaster-fire arises in nearby places wherever [appropriate], such that even the Brahmā palaces are incinerated. When the water disaster arises, some say that rain of hot ash-water from the border of the Third Dhyāna can destroy the world. Some say it wells up from the water mandala below. The correct explanation is: the predominant power of the karma of all sentient beings causes the world to form; when the end of the kalpa is reached, because the power of karma is exhausted, disaster-water arises in nearby places wherever [appropriate], and by that cause and condition the world is destroyed. When the wind disaster arises, some say that wind arises from the border of the Fourth Dhyāna and can destroy the world. Some say that fierce wind arises from the wind mandala below. The correct explanation is: the predominant power of the karma of all sentient beings causes the world to form; when the end of the kalpa is reached, because the power of karma is exhausted, disaster-wind arises in nearby places wherever [appropriate], such that all is scattered and destroyed up through the Śubhakṛtsna Heaven." What this treatise says about the three disasters mostly does not follow the definitive doctrine of the Vibhāṣā; the Master of the Treatise had a different view.
