89.11

Regarding the commentary's "Nine: the syllable ḍa": the alternate translation has the syllable ṇa; both are rising tones. The Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā and Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā-āloka also have the syllable ḍa. In the text, it first explains the meaning; afterwards, "it has the meaning of universally crushing," which reconciles it with the sūtra. The Dazhidulun says: "Hearing the syllable ḍa, one knows that perverse dharmas are not hot. In India, ḍāha means not hot." Explanation: If ḍa means not hot, then the preceding freedom from heat has already been discarded; obtaining coolness is truly the mark of prajñā.
