### [28.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.28.48)

疏「然聖人無名」下，欲顯多名，先且立理。於中有二：先雙標，謂本無言相，故下經云「已出世間言語道，其性非有非無」，故凡有言象皆是隨俗利眾生耳。二「若就德」下，就無名立名。不出此二。就德，通於真應；隨機，唯約利他。

> From the commentary's "However, the sage has no name" onward: intending to show the multitude of names, it first establishes the principle. Within this, there are two parts: First, it posits both aspects, meaning that originally there are neither words nor characteristics; thus the sūtra below says, "Having already transcended the path of worldly speech, its nature is neither existent nor non-existent." Therefore, all words and images merely accord with conventions to benefit sentient beings. Second, from "If in terms of virtues" onward: establishing names based on the nameless. It does not go beyond these two: in terms of virtue, it applies generally to the true and responsive \[bodies\]; according to capacity, it pertains solely to benefiting others.
