答:入空之觀破見及思,束而言之,秖是破有;次觀所破,秖是破無;中觀所破,雙非二邊,正顯中道。故《釋論》云:「有無二見滅無餘,稽首佛所尊重法。」故知諸見縱橫尚不為第二觀所破,云何謬謂為真法耶?

Answer: The contemplation of entering emptiness refutes [delusions of] view and thought; bundling them together, it simply refutes existence. What is refuted by the next contemplation is simply nonexistence. What is refuted by the middle contemplation doubly negates the two extremes, directly revealing the middle way. Therefore, the *Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa* says: "Both views of existence and nonexistence are extinguished without remainder; / I bow my head to the Dharma honoured by the Buddha." Therefore, one knows that although the various views crisscross, they are not even refuted by the second contemplation; how could they be mistakenly called the true Dharma?
