3.678

述曰:生滅二時,俱在現在一世而有,雖復相違而體同者,理必不成。此總結破上座等訖,大乘生、滅,非定一法,有、無異故;非定異法,即生法滅,非別法滅,故無有過。

The Commentary states: That the two times of arising and cessation both exist within the single present time-period, and though mutually contrary are identical in substance, is logically untenable. This concludes the general refutation of the Sthaviras and others. In the Mahāyāna, arising and cessation are not definitely one dharma, because existence and non-existence are different; nor are they definitely different dharmas, for it is the very arisen dharma that ceases, not another dharma that ceases; therefore there is no fault.
