2.67

述曰:此下正破。量云:其和合相。非異極微有實體;即極微故;如極微。此犯相符。經部不說和合有體,故今牒定也。說和合相既非實有,方顯非是五識緣故。非汝經部師其和合相,異本真實極微有實自體,分折彼和合時,能緣假和合相,識定不生故。

The Commentary states: Below is the refutation proper. The syllogism is: That combined aspect does not exist as a real entity distinct from the atoms (thesis); because it is nothing other than the atoms (reason); like an atom (example). This incurs the fallacy of proving what is already accepted (siddhasādhana). The Sautrāntika does not say that the combination has real entity, so it is now cited and determined. Stating that the combined aspect is not real serves to demonstrate that it is not the condition (pratyaya) of the five consciousnesses. It is not that your—the Sautrāntika master's—combined aspect has a real individual entity distinct from the original, real atoms, because when that combination is analyzed, the consciousness that cognizes the nominal combined aspect definitely does not arise.
