Trans.-364-365 Similarly, ( some would believe that ) both are different ( from each other ), or that the production of the mundane world would be due to (nothing else but its ) svabhāva only. (In reply to that ), it is said that ( the production of the mundane world) by virtue of ( its) svabhāva, is not believable. And, Is that svabhava a ( definite ) object ? or causelessness ( itself ) ? or the property of an object ? If ( it is taken as an object, it is not an object ), because it is non-apprehensible like a kha-puspa ( 1912-1913 )

C.--According to some, punya and pāpa are independent of each other, because sukha and duhkha which are their respective kāryas or consequences are not experienced at one and the same time. So, when kāryas are found to be independent of each other, their respective causes should also be independent of each other by anumāna.
Finally, there is one wore theory that the expansion of this mundane world is not due to Karmas known as pāpa nad
