仁王經疏 3.138

3.138

Explanation: From here down is the second [section], in which words are uttered to present a request; it first praises and then requests. This is the praise. According to the Benji, because it transcends speech, it cannot be spoken; because it transcends the conceiving mind, it cannot be understood; because it transcends vitarka and vicāra, it cannot be known by consciousness. This corresponds to the Da zhidu lun's saying, "The path of speech is cut off; the place of the mind's activity is extinguished," and to the Saṃdhinirmocana-sūtra's saying, "The road of mind and speech is cut off."
