復次,觀眾生空,故名為觀;觀實法空,故名為還;觀平等空,故名為淨。復次,空三昧相應,故名為觀;無相三昧相應,故名為還;無作三昧相應,故名為淨。復次,一切外觀名為觀;一切內觀名為還;一切非內非外觀名為淨。故先尼梵志言:「非內觀故,得是智惠;非外觀故,得是智惠;非內外觀故,得是智惠;亦不無觀故,得是智惠也。」

Furthermore, contemplating the emptiness of sentient beings is therefore called contemplation; contemplating the emptiness of real dharmas is therefore called turning back; contemplating equal emptiness is therefore called purification. Furthermore, corresponding with the emptiness samādhi is therefore called contemplation; corresponding with the signless samādhi is therefore called turning back; corresponding with the wishless samādhi is therefore called purification. Furthermore, all external contemplation is called contemplation; all internal contemplation is called turning back; all contemplation that is neither internal nor external is called purification. Therefore, the wanderer Śreṇika said: 'It is not because of internal contemplation that this wisdom is attained; it is not because of external contemplation that this wisdom is attained; it is not because of internal and external contemplation that this wisdom is attained; nor is it because of absence of contemplation that this wisdom is attained.'
