成唯識論述記 3.11

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.3.11)

述曰：此遮經部等因果異時，上座部等亦爾。種望現行，定俱一身，不相離故，得為因也。外道說大自在天生一切有情，有情因緣者皆不成也。問：何故種望種因果，即言異時生；望現為因果，乃許同時起？

> The Commentary states: This excludes the Sautrāntika and others' view that cause and result occur at different times; the Sthaviranikāya and others are also like this. A seed with respect to an active manifestation is definitely in one body and not separated, and therefore can be a cause. The non-Buddhist claim that Maheśvara creates all sentient beings and is the cause and condition of sentient beings is entirely invalid. Question: Why is it that seed with respect to seed is said to arise as cause and result at different times, whereas with respect to an active manifestation, they are permitted to arise simultaneously as cause and result?
