楞伽阿跋多羅寶經註解 3.220

3.220

This verse summarizes the aforementioned views of various tīrthikas who falsely postulate nirvāṇa. 'Each' means, as listed in the preceding text, there are twenty-one different kinds, yet all arise from mind-thoughts of perverse habits. 'Devoid of the expedient means for liberation' means that to untie the bonds of birth and death and attain liberation, without the practice of skillful means it is impossible. Since they lack the expedients for liberation, how could they enter nirvāṇa? 'Deluded' means confused; due to delusion they do not realize that the perverse views they postulate are themselves the bonds of afflictions and birth and death; therefore abandoning skillful means, even if they seek liberation, it can never be attained. The four lines beginning with 'Diverse intellects' state that the penetrations and wisdom established by the tīrthikas through austerities are false and not true.
