English version Two kinds of views. One is the unequal view (a view that believes things are essentially unequal). The four views refer to extreme views, eternalism, self-view (the view that there is a permanent and unchanging 'self'), moralistic views (the mistaken belief that following certain precepts can lead to liberation), and attachment to views (attachment to one's own wrong views). Eternalism is the root, because the two unequal views do not follow the correct principles of cause and effect. This is a name established from the meaning of fault. It can also be said that the 'cause' of the heretics is a fixed 'cause' and cannot become a 'result'; the 'result' is a fixed 'result' and cannot become a 'cause'. So it is not equal. The second is without cause, which is a wrong view. Attachment to the mind without 'cause' destroys the correct principle of cause and effect, and is called 'without cause'. This is a name established from what is not. The twenty-five Tattvas (twenty-five real elements) of Samkhya (an ancient Indian philosophical school, the Samkhya school) are roughly distinguished from five aspects. One is from the individual to the whole. The individual refers to change, and the whole refers to Prakriti (the origin of the universe). The second is from the end to the root. Change is the end, and Prakriti is the root. There are greed, hatred, and delusion in the end, so it can be known that there are also in Prakriti. The third is from things to abilities. Things refer to things, and abilities refer to functions. Able to create all things. Because there is ability, there is substance, so it can be like this. The substance is Prakriti. The fourth is the difference between cause and effect. 'Cause' is Prakriti, and 'effect' is the effect of change. The fifth is from the three existences to non-discrimination. Because change enters Prakriti, there is no discrimination. Among the twenty-five Tattvas, Prakriti is the root. From Prakriti arises Buddhi (intellect). From Buddhi arises Ahamkara (ego-consciousness). Ahamkara produces five Tanmatras (potential forms of the five senses). The five Tanmatras form the five Mahabhutas (five basic elements). The five Mahabhutas form the eleven Ekadasendriya (eleven senses). The five Tanmatras are the five sense objects. The five Mahabhutas are the four great elements (earth, water, fire, wind) plus space. The eleven senses are equal to the five senses plus one of the hands, feet, mouth, excrement, and male and female reproductive organs, plus Manas (mind). Adding 'I know' is the twenty-five Tattvas. Six attachments to name and substance. Name: First, calculating Prakriti (the origin of the universe). 'Self' refers to substance, and 'nature' refers to cause, that is, using substance and function as a name. Second, Purva-karma (past actions). After things have passed, it is called 'past'. 'Past' can get retribution, called 'action'. From the meaning and function as a name. Third, Isvara-parinama (transformation of Isvara). 'Isvara' refers to retribution, and doing whatever you want is called 'Isvara'. Changing color and shape is called 'change'. Creating something out of nothing is called 'transformation'. That is, from the superior function as a name. Fourth, Asta-aisvarya-atman ('I' with eight kinds of freedom). Action without hindrance is called 'freedom'. The root of 'freedom' lies in 'I'. That is, using the meaning of the body as a name. Fifth, Ahetu (atheism). An evil mind is attached to destructive things, which is called 'nothing'. 'Cause' refers to the 'cause' that is not there. That is, from the mind and 'nothing' as a name. Sixth, Atma-kartri-bhokta (attachment to 'I' as the author and recipient). 'I' refers to the mind, and it is considered the subject of the gods. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: The author is the 'I can cause' (thinking oneself as the initiating cause of action). The receiver receives, meaning the receiver is the embodiment of 'I can' (thinking oneself as capable). Naming is done from the aspects of essence and function. The two essences refer to: Self-nature, characterized by eternalism (thinking things are permanent), which is a small part of extremism (clinging to one extreme of things), self-view (thinking there is a real 'I' existing), and moralistic adherence (wrongly believing that following certain precepts or rituals can achieve liberation). A small part of past actions (karma) is wrong views. It can also be said that clinging to one's own views is the characteristic. The independent being has eternalism, moralistic adherence, and also clinging to views. The eight independent beings (gods possessing eight kinds of independence) have self-view and moralistic adherence as their essence. The cause is wrong view as its essence. 'I' (the author) and the receiver have wrong view, self-view, extremism, and moralistic adherence as their essence. In summary, the five views (belief in a self, skepticism, clinging to wrong views, attachment to rituals, and heretical views) are the essence. The twenty-five Tattvas (twenty-five basic principles in Sāṃkhya philosophy). This is the view adopted by the Sāṃkhya school from the sage Kapila. It arises from meditation and clings to it. This is the mind of affliction in the earth. Unawareness beyond eighty thousand kalpas is called Avidya (ignorance), which is delusion and ignorance, called Avidya. From Avidya arises Mahat (the Great), which is karma as the Great. The nameless Great of rebirth. In the Śataśāstra (Treatise in One Hundred Verses), it is called Buddhi (intellect). From Buddhi arises ahaṃkāra (ego), which is the intermediate state (antarābhava). Between yin and yang arises Vijñāna (consciousness). In the Śataśāstra, it is called aham (I-consciousness). From I arises two, namely Rūpa (form) and Nāma-Rūpa (name and form). Form has twenty-one. The five dusts (form, sound, smell, taste, touch), the five great elements (earth, water, fire, wind, space), the five roots (eye, ear, nose, tongue, body), the five karmas (speech, body, mind), plus the mind are equal to twenty-one. Mental dharmas have three: defilement, coarse, and black. Combining the previous twenty-four. Buddhi and aham are twenty-six. The two roots of male and female, one person does not have both, so it is said to be twenty-five. The names and essences of the eight independent beings: One, the smallest of the small (Aṇimā, the ability to become extremely small). Two, the largest of the large (Mahimā, the ability to become extremely large). Three, all-pervading (Laghima, the ability to become extremely light). Four, at will (Prāpti, the ability to reach anywhere at will). Five, unattached (Prākāmya, the ability to fulfill any desire). Six, transformation (Īśitva, the power to dominate everything). Seven, always unchanging (Vaśitva, the ability to control everything). Eight, pure and without sorrow (Kāma-avasāyitva, the ability to completely satisfy desires). The essence is the same, with 'I' as the essence. In terms of function, it is divided into eight types. The names and essences of the two seeds (Bīja): The name refers to: One, the external seed. The essence is the non-sentient realm (the realm of non-sentient beings), called external. Named from the meaning. Two, the internal seed. The essence is the mind of the sentient realm (the realm of sentient beings), called internal. Named from the meaning. Collectively called seeds. Named from meaning and function. The essence refers to: The internal seed takes the habits of form and mind as its essence. It can also be said that karma, afflictions, and retribution are its characteristics. The external seed takes the four dusts such as form as its essence. The meaning and names of the two causes, the generating cause and the attracting cause: The name refers to: One, the generating cause. The one that can directly distinguish the result is called generating. What is generated is the result, called generating. The one that can generate is the cause. Named from the perspective of function and result. Two, the attracting cause. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
