| English | Here the logic is stated in brief: The origination of entities could be either without or with a cause. First of all, (the origination of an entity is) not without a cause, since it is seen to occur on specific occasions. For unconnected to a cause, wouldn't entities arise at all times and places in the same way as at the (actually observed) time of origination, on account of there being no distinction (among those occasions)? Conversely, since (there would be) no difference from a time of (their) not being, they couldn't even arise at the time of origination. Thus it is proven that (the origination of entities) is not without a cause. |
