俱舍論疏 16.113

16.113

論「息風名生至鈴聲名殺」，答也。息風名生，令息後念不續名為殺，非是令前念滅名之為殺。如滅燈光鈴聲名殺者，正量部同許燈焰、鈴聲剎那自滅不待客因，吹燈令滅、執鈴斷聲，但令後念不生，非令前滅，故引共許為喻。

On the Śāstra's "The breath-wind is called life... to ...the sound of a bell is called killing": This is the reply. The breath-wind is called life; causing the breath of subsequent moments not to continue is called killing; it is not that causing the prior moment to perish is called killing. As for "destroying the lamp's light and the sound of a bell is called killing": the Sammatīya likewise accept that the flame of a lamp and the sound of a bell perish of themselves in an instant without waiting for an extrinsic cause; blowing out a lamp to extinguish it or holding a bell to stop its sound merely causes subsequent moments not to arise, not that it causes prior moments to perish. Therefore, a commonly accepted [phenomenon] is cited as an analogy.
