（基云）即體一物對而緣故，有自性相二別，自性者體，相者狀也，即諸法體狀義。云何句身？謂即依彼自相施設所有諸法差別等者，自證差別約法辨者，如總說識心，即說自相後說此心一切清淨所有得失皆由之生，行者於心諸惡莫作諸善奉行，顯此差別，文身是二所依等者，文者是字，字是不動楷定之義，若說為文，是顯了義，由依此字令彼名句詮法顯了。

(Ji says:) Because an identical substantial entity is cognitively grasped as an object, there is the twofold distinction of own-nature and characteristic. Own-nature is the essence, and characteristic is the form; that is, the meaning of the essence and form of phenomena. What is a group of phrases? That is, 'namely relying on that designation of specific characteristics, all the differentiations of phenomena, and so forth': if one distinguishes self-realized differentiation in terms of phenomena, it is like speaking generally of the cognitive mind, which is to speak of the specific characteristic, and subsequently speaking of this mind's utter purity, wherein all gains and losses arise from it, [so that] a practitioner does no evil and practices all goods with respect to the mind, thus revealing this differentiation. As for 'the group of syllables is the basis of both, and so forth': a syllable is a letter (akṣara); 'letter' has the meaning of being unmoving and definitively fixed. If spoken of as 'syllable' (vyañjana), it has the meaning of making clear; through relying on this letter, it causes those names and phrases to express phenomena clearly.
