7.163

釋揭羅,此云勇猛。言等者,等餘也。因陀羅釋揭羅等,並帝釋異名,以徒信名教昧於實體,於諸法中隨言取義。諸愚癡者作如是言,義如言說無有別異,謂言即義體性亦無,是人不了言說生滅,義非生滅。

Śakra here means 'Valiant'. 'And the like' refers to the rest. Indra, Śakra, and so on are all alternate names for Lord Śakra. Through vainly trusting in verbal teachings while blind to the real substance, they grasp referents according to words among phenomena. Those foolish ones speak thus: 'The referent is just as spoken, without any difference,' claiming that the word is identical to the referent and that its intrinsic entity is non-existent. Such people do not understand that speech arises and ceases, whereas the referent does not arise or cease.
