又古漢師云：依他無性者，無眾緣生俗諦性故名依他無性者，不然。瑜伽論云：云何無自性性，謂一切行眾緣生，緣力有非自然有，是故說生無自性性，此意說言，眾緣生法無自然性故說生無自性為其性，非謂無因緣生性，故說生自性性。

Furthermore, an ancient Chinese master said: 'The non-nature of the paratantra means that it lacks the conventional nature arisen from multiple conditions, hence it is named the non-nature of the paratantra.' This is not so. The Yogācārabhūmiśāstra states: 'What is the non-intrinsic-natureness? It refers to all conditioned phenomena arising from multiple conditions; they exist through the power of conditions and do not exist spontaneously; therefore, they are spoken of as the non-intrinsic-natureness of arising.' The meaning here is: because phenomena arisen from multiple conditions lack a spontaneous nature, they are spoken of as having the non-intrinsic-nature of arising as their nature; it does not mean that because they lack the nature of arising from causes and conditions, they are spoken of as having the intrinsic nature of arising.
