「謂我無有若分、若誰、若事」等者,分謂類,誰謂體,事謂物。初明我所無此三,後明我體非此三,故我、我所二俱無也。或分謂時分,三世時中亦無我耶;誰則我體;事則我所。謂觀自身三世時中無我,我無自體,亦無我所,故言謂我無有若分、誰、事;觀他身我時,分亦無我體,我所亦復都無,故言我亦都非若分、若事、若誰。或我無有等者,明無我所。我無瓔珞分,無童僕誰,無窟宅事。此說無我所,下破無我體。我謂自我,都非他我,若分瓔珞,若誰童僕,若事窟宅,故我體無,謂說生死相續之身。如是所說無我、我所所有言教,皆為難遇;設雖得遇,悟解亦難。不聞此教,生死恒沈;聞正思惟,方得漏盡。勸諸智者,應順修學。
As for the passage, "Namely, I have no such part, such person, such matter...", "part" refers to category; "person" refers to substance; "matter" refers to objects. First it explains that what belongs to a self is free of these three, and then it explains that the substance of the self is not these three; therefore, both self and what belongs to a self are non-existent. Or, "part" refers to temporal divisions, meaning in the time of the three periods there is also no self; "person" then is the substance of the self; "matter" then is what belongs to a self. It means observing that in one's own body across the time of the three periods there is no self, that the self has no own-substance, and that there is also nothing belonging to a self; hence it says, "Namely, I have no such part, person, or matter." When observing the self of another body, across time there is also no substance of self, and what belongs to a self is also entirely non-existent; hence it says, "I also am entirely not such part, such matter, or such person." Or, "I have no..." and so on explains the absence of what belongs to a self: I have no part that is an ornament, no person that is a servant, no matter that is a dwelling. This explains the absence of what belongs to a self; below, it refutes the substance of the self. "I" refers to oneself, which is entirely not another's self, whether as a part such as an ornament, as a person such as a servant, or as a matter such as a dwelling; therefore the substance of the self does not exist—this refers to the body of the continuity of saṃsāra. All such teachings expounding the absence of self and what belongs to a self are difficult to encounter; even if one manages to encounter them, awakening to and understanding them is also difficult. Without hearing this teaching, one perpetually sinks in saṃsāra; hearing and correctly reflecting on it, one only then obtains the destruction of the outflows. The wise are exhorted to cultivate and train in accordance with it.
