9.15

Here, if distinguished in terms of circumstantial and direct [retribution]: sovereignty is circumstantial retribution, and the remaining seven are direct retribution. Ji says: examining these vipāka entities below, credible speech, great influence, and completeness are not necessarily all indeterminate fruits; rather, at the time of the fruit, having sovereign or outflow fruits is termed vipāka. Prior to the stages, they are induced solely by wholesome karma with taints; on the stages, taintlessness is commonly used to nurture karma. Furthermore, what is named the indeterminate fruit of vipāka is solely with taints; subsumed prior to the stages, it extends to the stages; if sovereign and outflow fruits, such as credible speech and great influence, are on the stages, they pertain to both with taints and without taints, because they arise in subsequent wisdom. Such are the vipāka entities. The text states: “long life and remaining for a long time.” Ce says: according to various sūtras and treatises, there are three phrases: long life, remaining for a long time, and the limit of lifespan. In Jambudvīpa, fifty years and above is called long life; eighty years and above is called remaining for a long time; one hundred years and above is called the limit of lifespan. Now, based on this text, they are collectively subsumed into two, because remaining for a long time subsumes the limit.
