3.41

Demonstrating the four equalities still touched upon verbal explanations, so he again raised the question concerning the meaning of not speaking a single syllable from beginning to end. The Buddha answered that it is because of two dharmas, meaning that having no dharma to be spoken is the Buddha's speech. "Self-attainment" is the cultivated virtue of personal realization; "fundamental abiding" is the fundamentally possessed virtue of nature. Cultivation and nature are as one, both transcending words, hence he says 'I speak in this way.'
