7.4

答：但總為我，名為「自性」。遍常等差，名為「差別」。即、離蘊等皆悉准知。亦即因明我為自性、差別等也。

Answer: Taking it merely as a whole as the self is called 'intrinsic nature.' Distinctions such as omnipresent or permanent are called 'differentiation.' Grasping it as identical with or separate from the aggregates and so forth should all be understood accordingly. This is also the self as intrinsic nature, differentiation, and so forth in Buddhist logic (hetuvidyā).
