The treatise states that the conceptual mental activity (saṃjñā-manaskāra), which is cultivated by the language of the perceived (grāhya) and the perceiver (grāhaka), is the basis (āśraya) for the distinctions of the perceived and the perceiver, because it is the cause for the appearance of something similar to dualistic perception (dvaya-grāha). Therefore, this mental activity is the conceptual mental activity cultivated by the thought of elaboration (prapañca-saṃjñā). One who truly knows this mental activity should know that they have no inverted view regarding mental activity. Regarding one who has no inverted view regarding the immovable (aniñjya), the verse says: ‘Regarding no inverted view of the immovable, it means knowing that things are not existent, nor non-existent like illusions, etc., because of the immovability of existence and non-existence.’ The treatise states that it has been said before that things (artha) are neither existent (asti) nor non-existent (nāsti), like illusions (māyā), etc., because they are neither existent nor non-existent. For example, when a magician creates various elephants and horses, etc., those elephants and horses, etc., are not truly existent, but the appearance of elephants and horses, etc., is not completely non-existent either, because confused consciousness manifests something similar to those elephants and horses, etc. Likewise, things do not have a definite, real nature like the perceived and the perceiver that appear, but they are not completely non-existent either, because confused consciousness manifests something similar to the perceived and the perceiver. The word ‘etc.’ indicates mirages (marīci), dreams (svapna), and reflections of the moon in water (udaka-candra), etc., which should be understood accordingly. Because one can truly observe that things are like illusions, etc., the mind does not waver or become scattered regarding the categories of existence and non-existence. One who truly knows this immovability should know that they have no inverted view regarding the immovable. Regarding one who has no inverted view regarding the two characteristics (dvaya-lakṣaṇa), it means having no inverted view regarding both the own-characteristic (sva-lakṣaṇa) and the common characteristic (sāmānya-lakṣaṇa). Regarding one who has no inverted view regarding the own-characteristic, the verse says: ‘Regarding no inverted view of the own-characteristic, it means knowing that all is merely name (nāma), free from all conceptualization (vikalpa), based on the own-characteristic in the ultimate sense (paramārtha).’ The treatise states that truly knowing that all eye and form (cakṣur-rūpa), and even mind and phenomena (mano-dharma), are merely name, this can counteract all conceptualization. One should know that this is having no inverted view regarding the own-characteristic. This is spoken of based on the own-characteristic in the ultimate sense (paramārtha-sva-lakṣaṇa). If based on the conventional (saṃvṛti), it is not merely name, because various distinct characteristics (viśeṣa-lakṣaṇa) can be apprehended. Regarding one who has no inverted view regarding the common characteristic, the verse says: ‘Because there is no single thing (dharma) apart from the true element of reality (bhūta-dharmadhātu), therefore, one who understands this has no inverted view regarding the common characteristic.’ The treatise states that because there is no single thing (dharma) that can be apart from selflessness of phenomena (dharma-nairātmya), therefore, the true element of reality (bhūta-dharmadhātu) encompasses the common characteristics of all phenomena. One who truly knows this common characteristic should know that they have no inverted view regarding the common characteristic. Regarding one who has no inverted view regarding defilement and purification (saṃkleśa-vyavadāna), the verse says: ‘Knowing inverted mental activity, unextinguished and’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 已灭 于法界杂染 清净无颠倒

English version Extinguished. In the Dharmadhatu (totality of all dharmas), defilement and purity are without inversion. Treatise says: If the inverted mental activity is not extinguished, then the Dharmadhatu is said to be defiled. When it is extinguished, it is said to be pure. Those who truly know and see this defilement and purity are without inversion regarding defilement and purity. What is the aspect of being without inversion regarding adventitious defilements (Klesha, afflictions)? The verse says: Knowing the fundamental nature of the Dharmadhatu, pure like space, therefore defilement and purity are not the master, this is being without inversion regarding adventitious defilements. Treatise says: The fundamental nature of the Dharmadhatu is pure like space. From this, it should be known that the two different aspects of first being defiled and then being pure are adventitious and not the master. Those who truly know and see this aspect of adventitious defilements should know that this is called being without inversion regarding adventitious defilements. For those who are without inversion regarding fearlessness (absence of fear) and absence of pride (absence of arrogance), the verse says: Because sentient beings (Sattva, beings) and dharmas do not exist, the nature of defilement and purity both do not exist. Knowing this fearlessness and absence of pride is being without inversion regarding the two. Treatise says: Because sentient beings and dharmas are both non-existent, their nature of defilement and purity is also non-existent. Because the meaning of defilement and purity are both unattainable, the categories of defilement and purity neither decrease nor increase. Therefore, there is no fear or arrogance in it. Those who truly know and see fearlessness and absence of pride should know that this is called being without inversion regarding the two. The general meaning of non-inverted practice is: through the non-inversion of words, one can correctly understand the two aspects of Samatha (calm abiding) and Vipassana (insight). Through the non-inversion of meaning, one can correctly understand the various aspects of inversion. Through the non-inversion of mental activity, one can correctly distance oneself from the causes of inversion. Through the non-inversion of immovability, one can skillfully adopt and abandon those aspects. Through the non-inversion of self-nature, one cultivates the non-conceptual path (Nirvikalpa-marga, path without discrimination) of counteraction (Pratipaksha, antidote). Through the non-inversion of common characteristics, one can correctly understand the fundamental purity. Through the non-inversion of defilement and purity, one understands the obstacles that have not been eliminated and those that have been eliminated. Through the non-inversion of adventitious defilements, one truly understands the two aspects of defilement and purity. Through the two non-inversions of fearlessness and absence of pride, all obstacles are eliminated, and one attains eternal liberation. These ten non-inversions are established in order. Among those ten Vajra sentences, what are called the ten Vajra sentences? They are: existence and non-existence without inversion, the basis of illusion and other metaphors without discrimination, fundamental purity, defilement and purity, the metaphor of space without decrease or increase. In order to encompass these ten Vajra sentences, there are two verses that say: It should be known that existence is non- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 有 无颠倒所依 幻等无分别 本性常清净 及杂染清净 性净喻虚空 无减亦无增 是十金刚句

且初安立十金刚句。自性者。谓自性故。所缘故。无分别故。释难故。自性故者。谓三自性。即圆成实遍计所执及依他起。是初三句如次应知。所缘故者即三自性。无分别故者。谓由此无分别即无分别智。及于此无分别即本性清净。如次应知安立境智。谓三自性及无分别。释难故者。谓所余句。且有难言。遍计所执依他起相。若实是无云何可得。若实是有不应诸法本性清净。为释此难说幻等喻。如幻事等虽实是无而现可得。复有难言。若一切法本性清净。如何得有先染后净。为释此难说有染净及虚空喻。谓如虚空虽本性净。而有杂染及清净时。复有难言。有无量佛出现于世。一一能度无量有情。令出生死入于涅槃。云何生死无断灭失。涅槃界中无增益过。为释此难说染及净无减无增。又有情界及清净品俱无量故。第二安立彼自性者。如有颂言。 乱境自性因 无乱自性境 乱无乱二果 及彼二边际 如是已说随法正行。离二边正行云何应知。如宝积经所说中道行。此行远离何等二边。颂曰。 异性与一性 外道及声闻 增益损减边 有情法各二 所治及能治 常住 现代汉语译本: 有与无的颠倒所依。 如幻象般没有分别,本性恒常清净。 以及杂染与清净,性净如同虚空。 没有减少也没有增加,这就是十句金刚句。 首先确立十金刚句。自性是指自性之故,所缘之故,无分别之故,解释困难之故。自性之故,是指三种自性,即圆成实(Parinispanna),遍计所执(Parikalpita)以及依他起(Paratantra)。这最初三句应按顺序理解。所缘之故,即指这三种自性。无分别之故,是指由此无分别即是无分别智,以及于此无分别即是本性清净。应按顺序理解安立境与智,即三种自性与无分别。解释困难之故,是指其余的句子。且有人提出疑问,遍计所执和依他起的相,如果实际上是没有的,怎么可能得到?如果实际上是有的,就不应该诸法本性清净。为了解释这个困难,说了幻象等的比喻。如幻事等虽然实际上是没有的,却显现为可以得到。又有人提出疑问,如果一切法本性清净,怎么会有先染后净?为了解释这个困难,说了有染净以及虚空的比喻。比如虚空虽然本性清净,却有杂染和清净的时候。又有人提出疑问,有无量佛(Buddha)出现于世,每一位都能度无量有情(Sattva),令其脱离生死进入涅槃(Nirvana),为什么生死没有断灭消失,涅槃界中没有增益的过失?为了解释这个困难,说了染和净没有减少也没有增加。又有情界和清净品都无量之故。第二确立彼自性,如颂所言: 乱境自性因,无乱自性境。 乱与无乱二果,以及彼二边际。 像这样已经说了随法正行。远离二边的正行应该如何理解?如《宝积经》所说的中道行。此行远离哪些二边?颂曰: 异性与一性,外道(Tirthika)及声闻(Sravaka)。 增益与损减边,有情与法各二。 所治与能治,常住。
