7.177

此謂涅槃。體是勝果,立以「勝」名。復能順益,又是義利,故亦名「義」。亦勝、亦義,持業釋也。因顯所得,名「得勝義」。異釋如《燈》。

This refers to nirvāṇa. Its substance is the supreme fruit, so it is given the name "supreme" (viśiṣṭa). Furthermore, it can provide compliant benefit and is also a welfare/meaning (artha); therefore, it is also called "artha." Being both supreme and an artha, it is a karmadhāraya compound. Because it manifests what is attained, it is called "attainment of the ultimate" (paramārtha). Alternative explanations are as in the Deng.
