答：如疏及《燈》俱明與彼相違之法而作因也，亦如因明四相違因。有義破云：若言與彼相違，為因令彼生等，此正相順，何名相違？今解即與當應生等諸法為因，謂彼應生由因違彼令不得生，以彼所違不生住等而為果故，相違即因。

Answer: Both the Commentary and the Deng clarify that it acts as a cause for a phenomenon that conflicts with that [other phenomenon], just as in hetuvidyā with the four contradictory reasons (viruddha-hetu). There is an opinion that refutes this, saying: If one says that it is in conflict with that, acting as a cause to make that arise and so forth, this actually accords with it; how could it be called 'conflicting'? The present explanation is that it acts as a cause precisely for those phenomena that are about to arise, meaning: that which ought to arise is, due to the cause, conflicted with and prevented from arising; and because that which is conflicted with does not arise, abide, and so forth, acting as its result, the conflict itself is the cause.
