釋曰:第三、顯三無為離有無相,意顯三種其性皆空。然釋此文,諸說不同。一云:釋無相有其三句。初無自他者,遣其有相。無無者,遣其無相。言無相故者,雙遣亦有無相。或有說者:具遣四句。無自他相,遣有相。無無者,遣無相。言無相者,遣第三句亦有亦無相及第四句非有非無相。今解:無自他者,遣我相,即顯生空理無。無無相者,顯法空理非無相,故言無無。非有相,故言無相。
Commentary: Third, revealing that the three unconditioned states are free from the characteristics of existence and non-existence, meaning that the nature of all three is empty. However, in interpreting this text, various accounts differ. One says: the explanation of "signless" has three phrases. First, "no self or other" dispels the characteristic of existence. "No non-existence" dispels the characteristic of non-existence. As for "because there is no characteristic," it dispels both the characteristic of both-existence-and-non-existence. Another says: it completely dispels the four propositions. "No characteristic of self or other" dispels the characteristic of existence. "No non-existence" dispels the characteristic of non-existence. "No characteristic" dispels the third proposition of both existence and non-existence, as well as the fourth proposition of neither existence nor non-existence. The present explanation is: "no self or other" dispels the characteristic of a self, revealing that the principle of the emptiness of persons is non-existent. "No characteristic of non-existence" reveals that the principle of the emptiness of dharmas is not a non-existent characteristic, hence saying "no non-existence." It is not an existent characteristic, hence saying "no characteristic."
