It is the entity itself, when it does not indicate ‘difference from other things’, that is spoken of by the words ‘it is of the form’; just as ‘disposition’ is spoken of as ‘of the mind’.—(1806)

Kamalaśīla

‘When it does not, etc. etc.’;—that is, when it ignores the difference from, other things.

‘Spoken of as, etc.’—i.e. as if it were something different.

‘It is of the form, etc.’—‘It’ stands for ‘Resistance’.

‘By the words’,—i.e. by the expression ‘Resistance of the Form’.

An example is cited—‘As Disposition, etc. etc.’.

The term ‘api ca’ should be understood in the cumulative sense.—(1806)
