| English | For if at some time an entity is seen, then one could conjecture ‘It does not exist’ by denying it. But if, in surveying the three times with wisdom, the yogin does not apprehend an entity, then by denying what could one conjecture ‘It does not exist’? So too, other concepts do not exist for him at that time, since all concepts are included under the conceptions of existence and nonexistence. Thus because of the nonexistence of the pervader, the pervaded also does not exist. When this is so, one has entered a non-conceptual state that is free from conceptual proliferation and there is no reliance upon material form and the rest. And on the basis of not apprehending an inherent existence in anything because of discriminating with wisdom, one becomes someone who is absorbed in the highest wisdom (prajñottaradhyāyin). One has entered the truth of the selflessness of the person and of dharmas. There is nothing further to be examined. And so the yogin effortlessly abides, ever more clearly penetrating that very truth with a mind whose thoughts have ceased and which carries its own distinct flavor, the singular taste of non-conceptuality. |
