On the Śāstra's statement: "With the words 'and formless' ... their category extends to both meanings": this explains the second line of the verse. The preceding line states what is partly identical, and the following line states what is partly different. For name-collections and so forth, their realm is exclusively the desire and form realms, and their category is exclusively outflow. For generic likeness (sabhāgatā), its realm extends to all three, and its category extends to both [fruition-of-ripening and outflow]. This is what is meant by difference. The Nyāyānusāra says: "What is ripening? It refers to the generic likeness of destinies and births such as hells and egg-born beings. What is outflow? It refers to all generic likenesses of realms, planes, bases, lineages, clans, śramaṇas, brāhmaṇas, learners (śaikṣa), non-learners (aśaikṣa), and so forth. Other masters say: Among all generic likenesses, those brought about by past karma are ripening generic likenesses; those that arise from present preparatory application are outflow generic likenesses."
