2.83

"Thus" points to the cited sūtra. Since it says prajñā is itself the essence of knowing, and further says it is without knowing and without seeing, then according to the meaning of this sūtra knowing is itself without knowing. How could it wait to withdraw its illumination, closing its eyes and stopping its ears, cutting off sagacity and abandoning wisdom, becoming murky like wood and stone, to be called "without knowing"?
