English version: The Real. It manifests by verifying the essence. Its name is called 'form' (相, xiàng, form/appearance). It can also be regarded as 'form' by its formlessness. Contemplative Prajna (观照般若, guānzhào bōrě) takes wisdom as its essence. The essence is Prajna. Contemplation is its function. Combining essence and function, it is called Contemplative Prajna. Literal Prajna (文字般若, wénzì bōrě) takes sound and verbal teachings that interpret truth as its essence. Words are not Prajna. Why is it called Prajna? First, it can generate Prajna. Second, it can interpret Prajna. Because the result is spoken of in the cause, it is established as Prajna. Two kinds of Nirvana: First is Self-Nature Pure Nirvana (性净涅槃, xìng jìng nièpán). Second is Expedient Nirvana (方便涅槃, fāngbiàn nièpán). Self-Nature Pure is the principle of true nature. Its essence permeates the three times (past, present, future). Its virtues are complete and perfect. Originally, there is no increase or decrease. Although it is hidden or manifested according to conditions, its essence is free from defilement and encumbrance. Therefore, based on reality, its name is manifested, called Self-Nature Pure Nirvana. Expedient Pure, sentient beings possess consciousness. Although they have true nature, they are covered by afflictions and delusions, and their minds cannot reflect on their own. It is necessary to rely on the guidance of virtuous teachers. There are methods to follow teachings, transmit cultivation, and clearly understand principles. Understanding and contemplation gradually increase. Afflictions and delusions are completely eliminated. Thus, essence, function, and practice are accomplished, and the reward body and manifested body are used expediently. Therefore, the result is not achieved by itself, but by skillful function and eliminating burdens. Therefore, it is named from its ability to act, called Expedient Pure. Discriminative nature (五根六尘, wǔ gēn liù chén, five roots and six dusts are discriminative nature), dependent nature (识体, shì tǐ, consciousness entity is dependent nature), and true nature (真如, zhēnrú, suchness is true nature). Two No-Selves: First is the No-Self of Persons (人无我, rén wú wǒ). Second is the No-Self of Dharmas (法无我, fǎ wú wǒ). The No-Self of Persons is also called the emptiness of beings (众生空, zhòngshēng kōng). It is also called the emptiness of persons (人空, rén kōng). Starting from the emptiness of beings, up to the emptiness of Buddhas (佛空, fó kōng). This is called the emptiness of persons. It is refuted by turtle hair. The No-Self of Dharmas is also called the emptiness of dharmas (法空, fǎ kōng). The emptiness of the five skandhas (五阴, wǔyīn) of beings, up to the emptiness of the five skandhas of Buddhas. This is the emptiness of dharmas. The five skandhas are the dharmas that constitute beings. The essence of the five skandhas is empty. This is called the emptiness of dharmas. The above is refuted by rabbit horns. Three No-Natures: First is No-Form Nature (无相性, wú xiàng xìng). Second is No-Birth Nature (无生性, wú shēng xìng). Third is No-Nature Nature (无性性, wú xìng xìng). No-Form Nature, the roots, dusts, and other dharmas are fundamentally tranquil according to principle, called No-Form Nature. No-Birth Nature, the fundamental consciousness and other minds do not arise according to principle, called No-Birth Nature. No-Nature Nature, simultaneously extinguishing the previous two, called No-Nature Nature. The essence of No-Nature is one. Because it is from the perspective of interpretation, these three names are established. True Dharma is apart from all forms, its name is called -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 无性性。

English version Non-Self-Nature. The Three Samadhis: First is the Śūnyatā Samadhi (a mental state achieved through meditation). Second is the Animitra Samadhi (a mental state transcending appearances). Third is the Apranihita Samadhi (a mental state without desires). The concept of the three samadhis arises from attachment to delusion. Although delusions are numerous, they are generally of three types. Explaining emptiness in response to delusion, emptiness is also threefold. These three delusions are: first, attachment to 'existence,' so 'emptiness' is used to dispel it; second, attachment to appearances, so 'non-appearance' is used to remove it; third, harboring emotions and desires, so 'non-desire' is used to cleanse it. The Śūnyatā Samadhi considers the five skandhas (form, feeling, perception, mental formations, and consciousness) to have no substance, all being empty. Afflictions cease in this state of emptiness, called the Śūnyatā Samadhi. The Animitra Samadhi considers everything to transcend appearances, so it is without appearance. Concentrated contemplation on non-appearance is called the Animitra Samadhi. The Apranihita Samadhi considers the meaning of emptiness to be not seeking anything, so it is without desire. Being peacefully in a state of non-desire is called the Apranihita Samadhi (Sanskrit: Samadhi, translated into Chinese as 'tuning and straightening'). The Three Unconditioned Dharmas (Asamskrta): Cessation Through Knowledge (Samkhya-nirodha-asamskrta), Cessation Without Knowledge (Asamkhya-nirodha-asamskrta), and Space (Akasa-asamskrta). Cessation Through Knowledge refers to the state of cessation achieved by both the Hinayana and Mahayana schools of Buddhism through wisdom to eliminate afflictions, with the degree of cessation depending on the extent of wisdom. This is called Cessation Through Knowledge. Cessation Without Knowledge refers to the fact that all things in the world, once formed, are bound to decay, and eventually perish naturally, not through the application of wisdom. For example, withered grass and trees, fallen flowers and fruits, and so on. These phenomena are called Cessation Without Knowledge. Space refers to the fact that space itself is not artificially created; its nature is such, and it is called Space. The Eighteen Aspects of Emptiness (Śūnyatā): Internal Emptiness (Adhyatma-śūnyatā), External Emptiness (Bahirdha-śūnyatā), Internal-External Emptiness (Adhyatmabahirdha-śūnyatā), Emptiness of Emptiness (Śūnyatā-śūnyatā), Great Emptiness (Mahā-śūnyatā), Ultimate Emptiness (Paramartha-śūnyatā), Conditioned Emptiness (Samskrta-śūnyatā), Unconditioned Emptiness (Asamskrta-śūnyatā), Ultimate Emptiness (Atyanta-śūnyatā), Beginningless Emptiness (Anavaragra-śūnyatā), Dispersal Emptiness (Avakara-śūnyatā), Nature Emptiness (Prakrti-śūnyatā), Self-Characteristic Emptiness (Svalaksana-śūnyatā), All Dharmas Emptiness (Sarva-dharma-śūnyatā), Unobtainable Emptiness (Anupalabdhi-śūnyatā), Non-Entity Emptiness (Abhava-śūnyatā), Entity Emptiness (Bhava-śūnyatā), Non-Entity and Entity Emptiness (Abhava-svabhava-śūnyatā). These eighteen aspects of emptiness are the stages of eliminating delusion. The delusions of sentient beings cannot be eliminated all at once. After hearing, attachments arise; after contact, hindrances arise. Therefore, eighteen aspects of emptiness are needed to eliminate delusion. The *Shastric Treatise on the Great Perfection of Wisdom* elaborates on their meaning, but the content is vast and cannot be fully recorded here. The Three Turnings: First is the Turning of Showing the Characteristics (Lakshana-parivarta), second is the Turning of Encouraging the Characteristics (Anujna-parivarta), and third is the Turning of Confirming the Characteristics (Sakshi-parivarta). The Turning of Showing the Characteristics refers to showing the characteristics of the Four Noble Truths (suffering, the cause of suffering, cessation of suffering, and the path to the cessation of suffering), explaining what suffering is, what the root of suffering is, what cessation is, and what the path to cessation is. This is called the Turning of Showing the Characteristics. The Turning of Encouraging the Characteristics refers to... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
