4.242

二、「縱令」下，兼示其人，二：初、明具邪禪慧。長爪，即拘絺羅身子舅也。勤學不暇剪爪，時人呼為長爪梵志。根性最利，是外道中高著者，故舉之。鍱腹者，《金七十論》云「優樓僧佉外道中有一眾首、至金地國、頭戴火盆、鐵鍱其腹，與僧論義。」難石等者，《大論》二十六云「薩遮尼乾子難人，乃至樹木瓦石流汗。」至非想者，如欝頭藍弗已至有頂，故云將出；却墮飛狸，故云復還。

Second, from "Even if..." onward, also indicating the persons, which has two parts: first, clarifying the possession of wrong dhyāna and wisdom. "Long-Nails" is Koṭṭhita, the maternal uncle of Śāriputra. Diligent in study, he had no leisure to trim his nails, so people of the time called him the Long-Nails Brahmacārin. His faculties being the sharpest, he was preeminent among non-Buddhists, hence he is cited. Regarding "banding the belly with iron plates": the *Sāṃkhyakārikā-bhāṣya* says, "Among the Ulūka-Sāṃkhya non-Buddhists there was a group leader who went to the Golden Land wearing a fire-pot on his head and banding his belly with iron plates to debate with the monks." Regarding "refuting stones, etc.": Fascicle 26 of the *Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa* says, "Satyaka Nirgrantha-putra questioned and refuted people until trees, bricks, and stones sweated." Regarding "reaching Neither-Conceptualization": as Udraka Rāmaputra had reached the peak of existence, it says "about to emerge"; yet he fell back as a flying fox, hence it says "returning again."
