成唯識論了義燈 3.12

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.3.12)

問：既依現法，假立過去。云何得言無時名滅？又四十六云：過去行已生已滅，由彼諸行，無因可得，亦無自性。又云：即此已生諸行剎那，自性滅壞，正觀為滅。

> Question: Since the past is nominally established relying on present dharmas, how can it be said that the time of non-existence is called cessation? Furthermore, fascicle 46 says: Past formations have already arisen and already ceased; because for those formations no cause can be obtained, nor is there any intrinsic nature. It also says: It is precisely the intrinsic nature of these moments of already-arisen formations disintegrating that is correctly contemplated as cessation.
