4.60

四中經何以故者。徵。意云：設所見有眾生可度。此何過耶？次通云：若菩薩有我等相即非菩薩。此是反明。意云：是真菩薩必無我為能度，豈更見有眾生得滅度耶？遠離依止身見眾生等。依止即身見異名，亦名相續。梵云薩迦耶，此云身見，等於我人壽者也。

In the fourth part, the sūtra's 'Why is this?': this questions. The meaning is: suppose what is seen has sentient beings to be liberated—what fault is there in this? Next it resolves this: 'If a bodhisattva has the mark of a self, etc., they are not a bodhisattva.' This is an explanation by negation. The meaning is: a true bodhisattva definitely has no self as the liberating subject; how could they still perceive sentient beings attaining extinction and liberation? 'Distancing oneself from the support of the view of a self, sentient beings, etc.': 'support' is an alternative name for the view of a self; it is also called 'continuity'. In Sanskrit it is satkāya[-dṛṣṭi], translated here as 'view of a personal entity' (shenjian), which is equivalent to self, person, living being, etc.
