瑜伽論記 20.124

20.124

論主破云：此事不定。一、以諸天為供養緣。然於所攝受諸信解天者不決定，或有為天攝受擁護無災，或不攝受擁護，故攝受不決定；二、於信解不決定，諸天所作或令生信或不生信故；三、於信解事不決定，或有證驗或無證驗故；四、由供養故生天不定；五、得富樂不決定；六、壞滅怨敵不決定；七、於死沒不決定，或有勉死及不勉故，梵本說死為從從報故。

The treatise master refutes this, saying: This matter is indeterminate. First, taking the devas as the condition for offerings: however, with respect to the believers whom the devas protect, it is indeterminate—some are protected and guarded by devas and are free from disasters, while others are not protected or guarded; hence protection is indeterminate. Second, regarding faith, it is indeterminate: what the devas do may cause faith to arise or may not cause faith to arise. Third, regarding the matters of faith, it is indeterminate: there may be verification or no verification. Fourth, being born in heaven through making offerings is indeterminate. Fifth, attaining wealth and pleasure is indeterminate. Sixth, destroying enemies is indeterminate. Seventh, regarding death, it is indeterminate: some escape death and some do not; because the Sanskrit text speaks of death as a retributive consequence.
