俱舍論疏 9.132

9.132

論「若緣起支至成無窮失」，難也。難云：若緣起支唯有十二，老死無果故，離修對治道，生死應有終。無明無因故，應同彌沙塞部，生死應有始。或應更立餘緣支起，餘復有餘，成無窮故。《正理》更加一過云：又佛聖教應成缺減，然不應許。

The Śāstra states: "If the factors of conditioned arising... up to 'there would be the fault of infinite regress'": this is an objection. The objection says: If the factors of conditioned arising are only twelve, because aging-and-death has no result, then apart from practicing the path of counteraction, saṃsāra would have an end. Because ignorance has no cause, then, agreeing with the Mahīśāsaka school, saṃsāra would have a beginning. Or, one would have to establish further factors of conditioned arising, and those others would have yet others, resulting in an infinite regress. The Nyāyānusāra adds another fault, saying: 'Furthermore, the Buddha's holy teaching would become deficient, yet this cannot be accepted.'
