注大乘入楞伽經 4.194

4.194

釋上言說是假安立耳！言見此愚夫無知如虫蟻等，故作言說以辨法相。故上經云「有諸言說，悉由愚夫希望見生。」亦云「微細諸虫，尚無有言說，而各辦其事。」

This explains that language is merely a provisional establishment. Seeing that ordinary foolish people are ignorant like insects and ants, he devised language to distinguish the characteristics of phenomena. Therefore the preceding sūtra says: 'Whatever language there is, it all arises from the desires and views of foolish people.' It also says: 'Minute insects do not yet have language, yet they each manage their affairs.'
