16.541

若起者，從上地散心而起見惑。若生者，據生上地，若遇生緣生上見惑亦可。今言異生離色界欲自地所有見斷諸漏。若定、起、生，遇緣便現者，據生上地，下地見惑不現起故，得起自地所有見惑言若定者，從退分定起於見惑，見惑次第還入淨定，故言若定、若非在定中得起見惑，其若在定聲聞起耳識時，但是率爾自性無記不起煩惱。若起者身在上地汎在餘散心位，遇緣得起。若生是總生，在定地於一切時，若遇生緣便起彼界同地見惑。

'If arising' means arising with afflictions of seeing from the distracted mind of a higher stage. 'If being born' is based on being born in a higher stage; if meeting conditions for birth, generating higher afflictions of seeing is also permissible. Now saying that ordinary beings detached from the desire of the form realm have all taints severed by seeing existing in their own stage—'if in absorption, if arising, if being born, when meeting conditions they then manifest'—is based on being born in a higher stage. Because the afflictions of seeing of the lower stage do not manifest and arise, they can generate all afflictions of seeing existing in their own stage. 'If in absorption' means that from the absorption of the falling-away factor afflictions of seeing arise, and following the afflictions of seeing one returns into pure absorption; hence it says 'if in absorption.' It is not that within absorption one can generate afflictions of seeing; when an absorbed śrāvaka generates ear-consciousness, it is merely sudden, intrinsically indeterminate, and does not generate affliction. 'If arising' means that with the body in a higher stage, generally being in other states of distracted mind, when meeting conditions they can arise. 'If being born' is a general being-born; being born in the stage of absorption, at all times, if meeting conditions for birth, they then generate the afflictions of seeing of the same stage of that realm.
