भावार्थ : बौद्ध कहते हैं कि आत्मा ज्ञान के क्षणों की परम्परारूप है, वह नित्य नहीं है । आत्मा को नित्य मानने पर क्रम से या अक्रम से भी अर्थक्रिया घटित नहीं होती ॥३१॥ स्वभावहानितोऽध्रौव्यं क्रमेणाऽर्थक्रियाकृतौ । अक्रमेण च तद्भावे युगपत्सर्वसम्भवः ॥३२॥
भावार्थ : यदि आत्मा क्रम से अर्थक्रियाकारी हो तो उसके नित्यत्व-स्वभाव की हानि होगी, और इस प्रकार आत्मा में अनित्यता आ जाएगी । और यदि ऐसा कहें कि आत्मा अक्रम से अर्थक्रिया करती है, तो एकसाथ सभी क्रियाएँ होनी चाहिए; पर होती नहीं ||३२||
क्षणिके तु न दोषोऽस्मिन् कुर्वद्रूपविशेषिते । ध्रुवेक्षणोत्थतृष्णाया निवृत्तेश्च गुणो महान् ॥३३॥
भावार्थ : आत्मा को क्षणिक मानने में कोई दोष नहीं है । वह नये-नये रूप करता है । वर्तमानक्षण में अपनी उत्पत्तिक्रिया करते-करते जो रूप विद्यमान हो, उसे कुर्वद्रूप - विशेषण युक्त लक्षण से क्षणिकत्व में दोष नहीं आता । बल्कि नित्यत्वपक्ष को देखने से उत्पन्न हुई तृष्णा की निवृत्तिरूपी महागुण ही होता है ||३३|| मिथ्यात्ववृद्धिकृन्नूनं तदेतदपि दर्शनम् । क्षणिके कृतहानिर्यत्तथात्मन्यकृतागमः ॥३४॥

**Meaning:** Buddhists say that the soul is a series of moments of knowledge, it is not eternal. If the soul is considered eternal, then neither sequential nor non-sequential actions can occur. ||31||

**Meaning:** If the soul is the cause of actions sequentially, then its eternal nature will be lost, and thus the soul will become impermanent. And if it is said that the soul acts non-sequentially, then all actions should happen simultaneously; but they do not. ||32||

**Meaning:** There is no fault in considering the soul to be momentary. It takes on new forms. The form that exists in the present moment, while performing its act of creation, is not flawed by momentariness due to the characteristic of being "doing" - a special characteristic. Rather, it is a great virtue that eliminates the craving that arises from seeing the soul as eternal. ||33||

**Meaning:** This view, which considers the soul to be momentary, is certainly not conducive to the growth of falsehood. It is because the soul, being momentary, does not suffer any loss, nor does it gain anything. ||34||
