If it is said that there is no realization, and if each one realizes, how could they appear simultaneously? The very nature of what realizes, and that also is not one, at that time, if it is so, because of non-difference, those would become one, which is obviously contradictory. However, if those are not different, then how could they become different? Because it is not non-different. Therefore, abandoning the idea that different entities are one, analyze the reason for simultaneous appearance. Since those are also of the nature of non-different proximate causes, the proximate causes of those to be realized are definitely non-different, and so are those of the realizers. Since one's own and others' minds are not of the same proximate cause, those do not have simultaneous appearance. Even if each one does not realize everything, doesn't a group realize a group? Because the proximate cause is of a different nature, the groups are not arranged. The Establishment of Mind-Only, composed by the great scholar Ratnakara Shanti, is complete. Translated by the Nepalese Pandit Shanti Bhadra and the Tibetan translator Dro Gelong Shakya Od. Later, it was finalized by the great Pandit himself and Lokya Sherab. The Establishment of Mind-Only, by Ratnakara Shanti.
