5.196

詳曰:後師因果同、異無違,前師必同,理便焉有,何所以耶?但言決定,方有信生,不說言欲、解要俱時起,先決,後信,豈失於決,方生信義。設依彼文,但可因並,准何說果,亦俱生耶?由此言之,否臧可暏。

Detailed examination: For the later master, whether cause and effect are simultaneous or at different times presents no contradiction; but where is the logic for the former master holding that they must be simultaneous? What is the reason? It only says that once there is determination, then faith arises; it does not say that desire and adhimokṣa must arise simultaneously. First deciding and later having faith, how would this lose the meaning that one generates faith only after determination? Even following that text, it could only be that the causes occur together; on what basis does one say that the effect also arises simultaneously? Judging by this, the good and bad can be clearly seen.
