[17] Whatever phenomena (dhammā) are indeterminate (abyākata), do all those have the indeterminate root (abyākata-mūla) as their root?
The indeterminate that is without root-cause (ahetuka) does not have the indeterminate root as its root; the indeterminate that is with root-cause (sahetuka) has the indeterminate root as its root.
Or rather, whatever have the indeterminate root as their root, are all those phenomena indeterminate?
Yes (āmantā).
Whatever phenomena are indeterminate, do all those have one root in common with the indeterminate root as their root?
The indeterminate that is without root-cause does not have one root in common with the indeterminate root as its root; the indeterminate that is with root-cause has one root in common with the indeterminate root as its root.
Or rather, whatever have one root in common with the indeterminate root as their root, are all those phenomena indeterminate?
Yes.
Whatever phenomena have one root in common with the indeterminate root as their root, do all those have mutual roots with the indeterminate root as their root?
Those roots which arise together — the indeterminate roots — both have one root in common as their root and have mutual roots as their root; the remaining phenomena arisen together (sahajāta) with the indeterminate roots have one root in common with the indeterminate root as their root, but do not have mutual roots as their root.
Or rather, whatever have mutual roots with the indeterminate root as their root, are all those phenomena indeterminate?
Yes.
