15.443

基云:此中言建立因,是增上緣,非正生因緣,增上緣因果何妨同時生?故下文云:雖有自種無此依,故識不應生,其正生因即不定,種生種異時故。前本地分五若同類異念生,非即此剎那,生現異類,又同時生。

Ji says: What is called an establishing cause here is an auxiliary condition, not the direct cause-as-condition of production; how could cause and effect of an auxiliary condition be hindered from being produced simultaneously? Therefore the lower text says: "Although it has its own seed, lacking this basis, consciousness would not arise." Its direct productive cause is indeterminate, because a seed producing a seed occurs at different times. In the preceding Maulī Bhūmiḥ [it is said that] if they are of the same kind, they arise at different mind-moments, not in this very kṣaṇa; when producing a manifest dharma of a different kind, they again arise simultaneously.
