3.83

The first sentence is that which is realized; the next sentence is that which realizes. The Sanskrit term sarvajña means all-knowledge here. It means that radiance of wisdom blazes forth, deeply illuminating the aforesaid principle. "Signs" refers to subtle omens. "Nine abodes" refers to the nine grounds. "Great Void" refers to [nirvāṇa] without remainder. Wishing to conclude with the name "with remainder," he first brings up realizing the principle and entering quiescence. Examining the intent of this turning point: it means that the Tathāgata originally wished to sink into the Void, but because residual conditions were not yet exhausted, he dwelt in [nirvāṇa] with remainder.
