答。雖觀他人扶塵根是自相分。於他是親相分。有執受故。如誤殺他。即斷命根。即有罪。於自即是疎相分。

Answer: Although the gross material sense faculties of another are observed as one's own nimittabhāga, to the other they are an immediate nimittabhāga, because they are grasped and sustained [by their consciousness]. For example, mistakenly killing another immediately severs their life-faculty, and thereby incurs demerit; to oneself it is a mediate nimittabhāga.
