As for the fruit, being free from characteristics, it does not abide in the cause; as for the cause, being free from characteristics, it does not abide in the fruit. Although neither abides, cause and fruit succeed one another; this is abiding within non-abiding. Question: 'Is the abiding of non-abiding not an abiding?' Answer: 'Regarding the conventional, cause and fruit exist, so one may discuss having abiding or not abiding; regarding the ultimate, there is no cause and fruit, so one cannot discuss having abiding or not abiding.' Therefore Asaṅga says: 'It is due to saṃvṛti-satya that there are cause, fruit, and bodhi.' The next two lines generally indicate the five speeches.
