此難如來,若說有如來藏義,是違上一切修多羅皆應說空,即同外道說有神我。然彼計我其義有三:一者、體常名為作者;二者、雖在五陰而離於求那;三者、遍歷諸趣實非生滅。今說藏義,豈非同於外道我耶?

This challenges the Tathāgata: if he teaches the meaning of the tathāgatagarbha, this contradicts the statement above that all sūtras should teach emptiness, and becomes identical with non-Buddhists asserting an ātman. Now, their conception of the self has three meanings: first, its substance is eternal, called the agent; second, although within the five aggregates, it is free from the guṇas; third, it universally traverses all realms of existence, truly without arising or ceasing. Now teaching the meaning of the garbha, is this not identical with the non-Buddhist self?
