述曰:第三段,文有其四。外人難:若有我者,可有厭捨?我既實無,誰生、生死及得涅槃?既無此事,便為大失,無厭捨故。此中二問,應立量云:一切有情應無生死,亦不求涅槃;以無我故;如虛空等。

The Commentary states: The third section; the text has four parts. The outsider objects: If there were a self, could there be aversion and relinquishment? Since the self is truly nonexistent, who is born in saṃsāra and attains nirvāṇa? Since this matter does not exist, it would be a great error, because there would be no aversion and relinquishment. Herein are two questions; one should establish the syllogism: 'All sentient beings should not have saṃsāra, nor seek nirvāṇa; because of the absence of a self; like empty space, and the like.'
