Question: If there is no referent in a name, and no name in a referent, both being adventitious—if someone grasps that a name is different from a referent, and a referent is different from a name, since this person is already without inversion, they should have no perverse clinging toward referents, and should not generate minds of grief or joy upon hearing talk of good or bad, because name and referent are unrelated. Therefore, you should know that the adventitious meaning is your inversion.
