俱舍論疏 6.282

6.282

論「如是名為異熟果相」，總結也。《正理論》云「豈不異熟亦以前位異熟果體為同類因？是前異熟等流果故。則應亦說從無記生是等流性，如何乃說從有記生非等流性？無如是失。異熟果體由同類因相可雜亂、由異熟因相無雜亂，是故但說從有記生。由此准知非等流性，以等流果與因相似有雜亂故，若異熟果與因相殊無雜亂故。」今詳此意，異熟果體雖從同類因、俱有因、能作因、異熟因所生，然同類因生是等流果義、俱有因生是士用果義、能作因生是增上果義、異熟因生是異熟果義，即此異熟果法有等流、士用、增上、異熟四果之義。異熟果義非是等流、士用、增上果義，各取一義以立名故。士用、增上義雖是總，以總義名標別法故。因亦如此，法體是一，據用因異。後更分別。

The Śāstra states: "Such is termed the characteristic of the fruition of ripening (vipākaphala)." This is the general conclusion. The *Nyāyānusāra* says: "Does not the entity of the fruition of ripening also take the entity of the fruition of ripening of a preceding moment as its cause of similar kind (sabhāga-hetu)? For it is the result that flows from that preceding ripening (niṣyanda-phala). Thus one should also state that what is born from the unrecorded is of the nature of flowing from a cause. Why then state only that it is born from the recorded and is not of the nature of flowing from a cause? There is no such fault. In its entity as a fruition of ripening, by reason of a cause of similar kind its characteristics can be confused and mixed; but by reason of a cause of ripening (vipāka-hetu), its characteristics are without confusion. Therefore it is only said that it is born from the recorded. From this it is to be understood by analogy that it is not of the nature of flowing from a cause; for the outflowing fruition and its cause are similar, hence there is confusion, whereas the fruition of ripening and its cause are distinct, hence there is no confusion." Examining this intention now: although the entity of the fruition of ripening is produced from a cause of similar kind, a co-existent cause (sahabhū-hetu), an efficient cause (kāraṇa-hetu), and a cause of ripening, nevertheless, being produced from a cause of similar kind is the meaning of an outflowing fruition; being produced from a co-existent cause is the meaning of a virile fruition (puruṣakāra-phala); being produced from an efficient cause is the meaning of a predominant fruition (adhipati-phala); and being produced from a cause of ripening is the meaning of a fruition of ripening. That is to say, this very dharma that is a fruition of ripening has the four senses of fruition: outflowing, virile, predominant, and ripening. The meaning of fruition of ripening is not the meaning of outflowing, virile, or predominant fruition, because designations are established by taking each specific meaning respectively. Although the senses of virile and predominant are general, terms with a general sense are used to designate distinct dharmas. The causes are also like this: the entity of the dharma is one, yet causes differ according to their functions. This will be further distinguished below.
