7.76

"Dispelling attachment to words": the sūtra poses a question with the intent: by what meaning is it said not to be understood? The explanation's intent is: the Buddha speaks of the view of a self, a person, and so on, but it is not a real view of a self, a person, and so on; it is provisionally named the view of a self, a person, and so on, yet sentient beings do not understand and take it to be real. This is why the previous analytical rubric categorized it as an error.
