三、聲名合詮門。若小乘中,由前兩說,諸德合為此第三句。若依大乘《十地論》中,說者以二事說、聽者以二事聞,謂音聲及名句,耳識聞聲同時意識領解名句。又《維摩》云「諸佛音聲語言文字而作佛事」。

Third, the gate of combining sounds and names in expression: if in the Hīnayāna, due to the previous two explanations, the various masters combined them into this third proposition. If relying on the Mahāyāna, in the *Daśabhūmika-śāstra*, the speaker speaks by means of two things and the listener hears by means of two things, namely vocal sound and names and sentences; the ear-consciousness hears the sound, and the simultaneous mental consciousness grasps and understands the names and sentences. Furthermore, the *Vimalakīrti* states: "The vocal sounds, speech, and letters of the Buddhas accomplish Buddha-work."
