It is not to create a separate collection, but it means the ability to generate each collection that occurs in the second moment. Mentioning "one's own proximate cause" is to emphasize that it should be seen that the proximate combination produced by the simultaneous action that occurs in the first moment is to prevent the obstruction (of things). It is not the case that there are some fruits produced only from one's own proximate cause, because everything arises from the collection. As it is said: "Some are not produced from one, all arise from the collection." It is like saying this. Starting from that, it means starting from the later second moment. The so-called "done by it" means done by the special cause produced by the simultaneous action. Why? Because that is its essential nature, those, that is, its essential difference, produced by the special cause produced by the simultaneous action, is the nature to be produced, that which has the essence is called that. The so-called "near to it" should be related to "that is why it is its essential nature." The so-called "near to it" here shows that the use of the word "and" is omitted. Therefore, the meaning here changes, from that (first moment) to the fruit produced in the third moment, what differences are produced in the second moment, combined by the causal thing, those proximate combinations are also produced by the special cause produced by the simultaneous action, because it is the nature that can produce the fruit. Therefore, the differences produced in the third moment and so on are determined, that is the meaning. How do these certainties arise? Mentioning "power certainty" etc., the nature of things is not something that can be transcended and examined, just as the burning action of fire is inconceivable, their natures are different, because they are produced continuously by their own causes and conditions. Because they produce different abilities in each moment by the combination of other different conditions, therefore, although it is possible to recognize similarities from some similarities, the natures of these are ultimately different. Therefore, some
