7.153

Stating that my calling non-arising and non-cessation an alternate name for the Tathāgata is not [to imply] a non-dharma answers the earlier question: 'this would be a non-dharma.' That it is also not a grasping of non-arising and non-cessation answers the earlier question: 'Why is it said to be an alternate name for the Tathāgata?' That it also does not depend on conditions answers the concern about falling into the view of existence. That it is also not devoid of meaning answers the concern about falling into the view of non-existence. When I speak of non-arising as neither identical nor separate, it is an alternate designation for the Tathāgata's mind-made Dharmakāya that awakens to the co-arising varieties of the intrinsic nature of phenomena. However, regarding this non-arising and non-cessation, because the mental measurements of foolish worldlings, non-Buddhists, dull-witted adherents of the two vehicles, and bodhisattvas of the seventh bhūmi have not yet ceased, it is not their domain, and none of them can understand it.
