2.13

The commentary states: This means that regarding the aggregates, sense fields, and realms, as well as the six elements of a person, non-Buddhists and ordinary beings cling to them as real and give rise to inversion; [the text] cites them in order to elucidate emptiness. The twelve links of conditioned origination elucidate the contemplation of pratyekabuddhas. The statement "the four truths" elucidates the contemplation of śrāvakas. The statement "the two truths" elucidates the contemplation of bodhisattvas. All are without intrinsic nature (niḥsvabhāva) and entirely empty; the first four and the latter one have already been clarified above. As for the two truths of dependent origination, they will be fully explained below. Next is the second [section], elucidating emptiness through arising and ceasing. The text is divided into four parts: first, positing the emptiness of arising and ceasing.
