Question: According to this explanation, Dharmapāla loses his doctrine. In the Vijñaptimātratāsiddhi Śāstra, Bodhisattva Dharmapāla states that paratantra and pariniṣpanna are existent; why does he here, in explaining paramārtha-satya as signless and cutting off words, describe it as empty? Answer: That text, relying on the Sandhinirmocana, investigates nature and characteristics to their depths, and says the two natures are existent; this text, relying on the Prajñā, transcends words and cuts off signs, and so here says it is empty. Principle and teaching are obvious; what fault is there in this?
