2.144

述曰:若非是動是動因者,即應是風大,風大能動故。量云:汝身業應即風界;許體是色,能動因故;如風大等。設許是風,不應名表,無表示故;如水、火等。

The Commentary states: If it is not movement but the cause of movement, it should be the wind element, because the wind element can move things. The syllogism is: Your bodily karma should be the wind element; because its substance is accepted to be form, and it is the cause of movement; like the wind element and so on. Even if accepted to be wind, it should not be called manifest, because it has no indication; like water, fire, and so forth.
