Answer: It is not so. Although they equally rely on the five factors to explain cause and function, and take the silent mind as essence and effect, their conceptual meanings differ. Why? The five factors within the cause serve to bring about the effect of silence. Due to the effect of silence, the dharmas of the five factors arise. This takes silence as the essence and the five factors as the function. This is like the thirty-seven aids to awakening, which are the cause prior to the path and the function after the path.
