2.7.1.3

Upaḍḍhadivaso uppādakkhaṇo, upaḍḍhadivaso vayakkhaṇoti?

Theravādin: If your proposition is true, does one-half of the day belong to the “nascent moment”, and one-half to the “cessant moment”? You say no; but you have implied it. A similar admission is involved in affirming that a state of consciousness lasts two days, or four days or eight, ten, or twenty days, or a month, or two, four, eight, or ten months, or a year, or any number of years, or any number of æon ons.
