According to the Vaibhāṣikas, the dharmas exist in the three time periods, which is criticized by the Sautrāntikas. There are four types of Sarvāstivādins systems, which defined by Bhadanta Dharmatrāta, Bhadanta Ghoṣaka, Bhadanta Vasumitra and Bhadanta Buddhadeva. But the author considered Vasumitra’s system is the best.

(According to us), existence (bhava) means the person. Beings in absorption enjoy both the absorption itself and their own persons. Being freed from attachment to pleasures, they only enjoy their own persons and not external objects. This is why attachment to the two higher Dhātus is called attachment to existence (bhavarāga).

[At the moment of agreeable sensation, the anuśaya of desire (rāga) is in the process of arising, utpadyate; it has not yet arisen, utpanna. In other words, at the moment of the agreeable sensation, there is active rāga, awakened desire;] when this sensation ends, desire becomes dormant: then there is only the anuśaya of desire, dormant desire, the seed of future awakened desire.
