答：疏主所造《因明疏》中，立自他因甄簡剖析如其楚、越，而辨此論往往揮雜甘蒿猶參。今以愚度智，聊有二意：一、試諸學者而悟不耶，即《俱舍論》有斯意矣；二、餘因明師於一因過不分九例；今隨他語，復欲發生學者覺惠，故示紕謬。若言疏主實闇斯理，《因明疏》內何巨照然？故應不出前之二意，故因應云許是常住不生果故，簡諸不定悉皆無也。

Answer: In the Yinming shu composed by the commentator, when establishing reasons for oneself and the other party, his discrimination and analysis are as sharp as the separation between Chu and Yue; yet in analyzing this Treatise, he often mixes things together, like sweet herbs and wormwood commingled. Now, estimating wisdom with ignorance, there are two provisional intentions: First, to test students to see whether they awaken to it, an intention that also exists in the Abhidharmakośa-bhāṣya. Second, other masters of hetuvidyā do not divide one fallacy of reason into nine instances; now, following the words of others, he also wishes to stimulate the discernment of students, and therefore points out the error. If one were to say that the commentator was truly blind to this principle, why was he so brilliantly luminous in the Yinming shu? Therefore, it cannot exceed the former two intentions. Hence, the reason should say: "Because they are accepted as permanent and not producing effects," which eliminates all inconclusiveness without remainder.
