## Chapter 1: 13. How does the right faith, which is the subject of the nature of the soul and its calamities, arise?
**The Sutra says:**
It arises from nature and from learning. ||3||
**Explanation:**
14. Nature means inherent disposition, and learning means understanding of the objects. The Sutra indicates both of these as causes.
**Question:** What is the action for which these two are indicated as causes?
**Answer:** The action is "arises". Although it is not explicitly mentioned in the Sutra, it should be understood, as Sutras are always implied.
Therefore, the meaning of this Sutra is that right faith arises from nature and from learning.
15. **Question:** Does knowledge of objects arise in right faith born of nature? If it does, then it is also born of learning, and there is no difference. If it does not, then how can one have faith in objects without knowing them?
**Answer:** This is not a fault, because the inner cause, which is the cessation, destruction, or cessation of destruction of the obscurations of right faith, is the same in both types of right faith.
What arises without external instruction is natural right faith, and what arises with external instruction, as a result of knowing the soul and other objects, is right faith born of learning. This is the difference between the two.
16. **Question:** Why is the word "that" used in the Sutra?
**Answer:** The word "that" is used to refer to right faith, which was mentioned in the previous Sutra.
