18.35

誤等無或有者，無謂由逆罪擬殺父母，誤殺餘人；擬殺餘人，誤殺父母，皆不成逆。等者，等取害餘人，無有表也。如有一人起一加行害母及餘人，有二無表，表唯有一。唯母上有表，餘人上無其表，以無間業勢力強故，必有表也。尊者妙音說：「有二表，表是積集，極微成故，表微各異。由有表業，他命方斷，故必有表。」或有者，若害阿羅漢，無阿羅漢想，於彼身上起定殺心，無簡別故，亦有逆罪，故云或有。若有害父，父是阿羅漢，得一逆罪，身是一故。

"In error and the like it is absent or present": "absent" means intending to kill parents with an act of immediate retribution but mistakenly killing another person, or intending to kill another person but mistakenly killing parents—neither constitutes an act of immediate retribution. "And the like" includes killing another person without an intimation (vijñapti). For example, if a person initiates a single preparatory action to kill the mother and another person, there are two non-intimations (avijñapti), but the intimation is only one. There is an intimation only with respect to the mother, and no intimation with respect to the other person, because the power of karma of immediate retribution is strong, so it must have an intimation. Venerable Ghoṣaka says: 'There are two intimations; because intimation is aggregated, constituted by subtle atoms, the atoms of intimation are each distinct. It is due to the karmic intimation that the other's life is severed; therefore there must be an intimation.' 'Or present': if one kills an arhat without the notion of an arhat, having formed a definite intention to kill that body without differentiation, there is also the sin of immediate retribution; hence it says 'or present.' If one kills one's father, and the father is an arhat, one incurs a single sin of immediate retribution, because the body is one.
