89.23

Regarding the commentary's "Twenty-one: the syllable sva": the alternate translation renders it sva. If one reconciles it with the sūtra: mindfulness of the Buddha's adornments is the most tranquil and secure. The Dazhidulun says: "Hearing the syllable śva, one immediately knows that all phenomena cannot be apprehended, just as the syllable śva cannot be apprehended." The treatise states that the syllable śva has no distinct meaning, whereas in the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā-āloka it says "unoriginated"; "unoriginated" is precisely the meaning of tranquil and secure.
