On this matter, the three great Dharma masters gave no distinct explanations. They all said: Conventional truth possesses designations, while ultimate truth transcends designations. That conventional truth possesses designations means: in conventional truth, all phenomena have both designations and referents; a designation has the function of summoning a referent, and a referent has the reality of corresponding to a designation. Just as when calling out the name 'fire', fire comes and water does not come; therefore a designation summons and obtains the referent, and the referent corresponds to the designation. That ultimate truth transcends designations means: ultimate truth has no designations; it is the transcendence of designations through the transcendence of the four forgettings. Therefore they say: 'Naming the ultimate with designations moves one ever further from the ultimate'; hence ultimate truth transcends designations. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.3.25) - [Next: 3.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.3.27) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854~en-mt.3.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.3.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.3.26) · Pramāṇa
