此偈明何義 若當如是離於因緣和合生者 汝得多過
以不得法及非法故 一切世間法皆不可得 何以故
因緣和合生一切法 以一切法皆從因緣和合而生 若無因緣和合生者 則一切法皆不可得
又復自體不從因緣和合而生 無因緣有則是常法 何以故 無因緣法則是常故
彼若如是無住梵行 又復汝法自有過失
何以故 世尊所說 一切有為皆悉無常 彼何自體皆悉無常 偈言

If this is so, what defect follows for you who reject DependentOrigination?
- There is no merit. There is no demerit. Nor do exist the worldly conventions. - Why? -
Because all that is dependently originated; how will it be, if there is no dependent origination?
Moreover, being endowed with an intrinsic nature, not dependently originated and devoid of a cause, it would be permanent. - Why? -Because things that have no cause are permanent.
- There would thus follow that very non-practice of religious life. And you would contradict your own tenet
- Why? - Because the Lord has taught that all conditioned things are impermanent. They become permanent, because they are [Supposed to be] endowed with an intrinsic nature and hence [to be] permanent.
