俱舍論疏 28.44

28.44

The Śāstra says: "If you say that just as there is [...] because it is also denied that it exists." This refutes their rescue argument. The Mahāsāṃghika and others attempt to rescue their position, saying: Just as there is uncontaminated restraint without uncontaminated primary elements, our school holds that in the formless realm there is bodily and vocal restraint without distinct primary elements. The refutation says: Not so. Although uncontaminated [restraint] lacks [uncontaminated] primary elements, it relies on contaminated primary elements; in your school, it cannot be said that formless restraint relies on primary elements of the form realm, because their realms and levels are distinct. Furthermore, our school also denies that uncontaminated restraint exists in the formless realm.
