Regarding 'the preceding aggregates of sensation, ideation, formations, and this consciousness aggregate all have past,' and so on: the entities of the four aggregates from sensation onward pervade the three times, which is understandable. If they take external dust-objects as focal objects, they are called external following their objects; if they take the internal body as a focal object, they are called internal following their objects. The four aggregates associated with the five consciousnesses are called coarse; the four aggregates associated with the mental consciousness are called subtle. The four aggregates pervade the three natures: the wholesome are called good, and the remaining two natures are called bad. Past and future are called distant, because the future is not yet born and the past has already ceased, not abiding in the present body, so they are called distant; the present is called near.
