4.20

悉離下四句,總頌佛陀離相。陰緣者,陰即五陰,緣即界、入等攀緣之緣,正覺即法身。一異莫能見者,謂正覺法身與生死苦道無一異之相可見。既無能見之人,豈有一異之法而可分別耶?非作等四句,正顯法身中道。餘雜者,諸法過咎也。亦非有下四句,離有無二見,言如來法體由彼凡夫妄想分別而見,雖離諸相而亦非無實相可見。此法法亦爾者,謂此法身亦不可言有、不可言無,法爾而然也。

The four lines beginning with 'Completely free' comprehensively praise the Buddha as free from lakṣaṇas. 'Aggregates and conditions': 'aggregates' means the five aggregates; 'conditions' means the conditions of clinging, such as the realms (dhātu) and sense bases (āyatana); 'Sambuddha' means the Dharmakāya. 'Identity and difference cannot be seen' means that between the Dharmakāya of the Sambuddha and the painful path of birth and death, no lakṣaṇa of identity or difference can be seen. Since there is no person who can see, how could there be a dharma of identity or difference that could be differentiated? The four lines beginning with 'Neither action' directly reveal the Middle Way of the Dharmakāya. 'Other impurities' means the faults and errors of phenomena. The four lines beginning with 'Nor having' are free from the two views of existence and nonexistence, stating that the Dharma-body of the Tathāgata is seen through the false discrimination of ordinary worldlings; although it is free from all lakṣaṇas, it is also not without the real lakṣaṇa that can be seen. 'This dharma's nature is just so' means that regarding this Dharmakāya, one cannot say it exists, nor can one say it does not exist; it is naturally so by the nature of dharmas.
