俱舍論疏 9.78

9.78

論「若執有始至決定無初」，此破彌沙塞部眾生有始，及破無因外道、常因外道，如前已遣。

The Śāstra says: "If one grasps that there is a beginning … there is definitely no initial [limit]." This refutes the Mahīśāsaka school's view that sentient beings have a beginning, and refutes the non-Buddhists who assert causelessness and those who assert a permanent cause, as already disposed of earlier.
