答：如惡趣報尚說見斷，通業見斷亦有何過。今此文說：一切根本十種皆發業者，或據苦下十惑，亦可通據四諦下十惑，亦可通據見修十根本惑，由見修一切皆發，故言一切能發，雖言見修皆發，未知何相煩惱發不善業能往惡趣。故次說言猛利能發業非諸失念而現行者，即說上品猛利發惡趣業，失念下中品煩惱發業不往惡趣，但於人天受別報苦，又分別起多是上品發業惡趣業，任運所發多是中下人天受。

> Answer: Just as retribution in wretched destinies is even said to be severed by seeing, what fault is there in karma generally being severed by seeing? Now this text says: 'All ten root afflictions initiate karma,' which may be based on the ten afflictions under suffering, or may also generally be based on the ten afflictions under the four truths, or may also generally be based on the ten root afflictions of seeing and cultivation. Because all \[afflictions\] of seeing and cultivation initiate \[karma\], it is said that all can initiate it. Although it says that both seeing and cultivation initiate it, it is not known what characteristics of afflictions initiate unwholesome karma capable of leading to wretched destinies. Therefore, it next says that intense ones can initiate karma, not those that are active through lapses of mindfulness; that is to say, fierce ones of superior grade initiate karma of the wretched destinies, while afflictions of inferior and middling grades through lapses of mindfulness initiate karma that does not lead to the wretched destinies, but only experiences suffering as separate retribution among humans and devas. Furthermore, those arisen through discrimination are mostly of the superior grade and initiate karma of the wretched destinies, while those initiated spontaneously are mostly of middling and inferior grades, experienced among humans and devas.
