The śāstra states: "There is merely no referent; understanding the meaning of this phrase as it truly is refers to the so-called absence of a referent." This explains that the aforementioned absence of a referent is the meaning of pariniṣpanna-svabhāva. That is to say, beneath this dhāraṇī there is nothing denoted; because there is nothing denoted, one can realize pariniṣpanna-svabhāva. It is simply because beneath this dhāraṇī there is nothing denoted, understanding as it truly is that beneath this phrase there is the so-called absence of a referent, that one realizes pariniṣpanna-svabhāva.
