2.41

The commentary says: This second [part] dispels external attachments. "The Dharma attained by the Tathāgata" refers to the principle realized. "Neither real" means that it cannot be grasped as real according to words. "Nor unreal" means that it also cannot be sought separately apart from words. Because it is not unreal, one cultivates and learns in reliance on the Buddha's teaching; because it is not real, one leaves behind false conceptualization and realizes the true. That is to say, because what ordinary beings grasp through false conceptualization does not exist, it is not real; because the Tathāgata speaks free of false conceptualization, it is not unreal.
