15.278

建立生中，無今有情，各剎那生。自類相續，名相續生。羯羅藍等，名分位生。問剎那生者，從因緣一念法起即法要生。云何名假？解云：名中說生生無別，即就色心法起假立彼生，故生是假。

Regarding establishing birth: There is no single sentient being [enduring through time]; each arises momentary by momentary. The continuity of its own kind is called continuous birth. The stages of kalala and so forth are called status-birth. Question: Regarding momentary birth, when a phenomenon arises for a single thought-moment from causes and conditions, that phenomenon necessarily arises. Why is it called nominal? Explanation: In the name it is spoken of as birth, but birth has no distinct [entity]; it is nominally established as birth on the arising of material and mental phenomena, and therefore birth is nominal.
