3.91

Answer: "The marks of the physical body are shadows; the signless dharmakāya is the substance. If one wishes to attain the physical body with marks, one must see the signless essence of Dharma. Without having seen the essence of Dharma, one cannot manifest marks; therefore it first causes one to see marks as non-marks, and only then does one attain the body of physical marks. Here the meaning lies outside the words; therefore the treatise formulated the division with this meaning."
