1. Some assert that anguish arises from being made by self, made by other, by both, without
 
cause. To do that is not suitable.

2. If it were made by self, therefore it would not be contingently arising, because those
 
aggregates arise contingently on these aggregates.
 
[A difficulty with this entire chapter is to know what [[bdag]] (self) refers to in the context of
 
the creation of anguish. Does it refer to "oneself", i.e. the person who suffers, or to anguish
 
"itself?" In verse 2, the latter reading would seem to suggest itself, but then it would be at
 
odds with the subsequent verses, where [[Nagarjuna]] explicitly introduces the ideas of
 
svapudgala and parapudgala (one's own person and the other person) as the creators of
 
anguish. Verse 10, with its comparison of anguish with external things, likewise would
 
suggest the latter reading. I have chosen to translate the entire chapter (thus leaving v. 10
 
ambiguous) in the former sense. The crucial issue here, I feel, is the confusion around what it
 
means to say "I cause myself pain."]

3. If that were other than this and if this were other than that, anguish would be made by
 
other and that would be made by those others.
 
[ '''Ts.''' 244 is happy with the reading of lines c-d by ''Buddhapalita'' and ''Sherab Dronme'':
 
''gzhan de dag gis 'di byas pas''/''sdug bsngal gzhan gyis byas par 'gyur'' -- which is equivalent
 
to "...anguish would be made by others since those others made this."]

5. If anguish arose from another person, how could it be suitable for there to be [someone]
 
not included in the anguish, who has been given it by another who made the anguish?

6. If anguish arose [from] another person, who would that other person be who, having made
 
it, gives it to someone else, but is not included in the anguish?
 
['''Ts.''' 246 points out that this verse is not found in ''[[Buddhapalita]]'' or ''Sherab Dronme'',
 
but is found in [[Chandrakirti]].]

7. Since it is not established as made by self, how can anguish have been made by other?
 
[For] whatever anguish is made by other, that has been made by his self.

9. If it is made by each, anguish would be made by both. Not made by self, not made by other,
 
how can anguish have no cause?
