The third challenge also has two parts: 1. Refuting that it should be permanent. The syllogism is: The dharma that abides in the future time and serves as a condition for the present should be permanent, because it does not transition, like unconditioned dharmas. 2. It should originally not exist and now arise, and not be the arising of a future dharma: that is, if it arises by having that as a condition, then a different dharma arises, not the future dharma arising, so this would be non-existent in the future. The syllogism is: The present should not be arisen from a future dharma, because it does not exist within the future, just like the past.
