According to the aforementioned reasoning, because the effect [sādhya] [already] exists, there can be no recourse to material cause, since intelligent beings have recourse [to causes] only due to desire for an effect to be produced. And the notion that products like curds etc. arise only from specific [causes] like milk etc. would also not be possible, precisely because the effect cannot [need to] come into being.
