When true wisdom opens and unfolds, it severs these relatives; transcendence is itself further severed, like the fire-drill mentioned earlier, and this is called "absolute transcendence". Hence the Vimalakīrti-nirdeśa says: "All phenomena do not depend on one another, up to not abiding for a single thought-moment." This is precisely the meaning. If so, absolute transcendence is the realm of the sage, in which beginners have no share. Now, looking at it through the six identities, the beginner loses nothing, and the sage's realm is not profaned.
