Explanation: "The place of mental activities is extinguished" means that the mind's cognitive deliberation ceases. "The path of words is cut off" means that verbal expression cannot reach it. "Identical to the limit of reality, equal to dharmatā" means that King Prasenajit, contemplating the real mark of the body, found its substance to be identical to the limit of reality, and its measure equal to dharmatā. Now, all sentient beings from beginningless time, due to the habituation of the inversions regarding self and dharmas, have distinctions between self and other, and due to karmic force they experience bodily forms differing across the six destinies; but considering their real mark, all are identical to the limit of reality and equal to dharmatā. From here is the third, concluding the contemplation of the Tathāgata.
