5.38

【那】秦言不。《大品》云：「那字門，諸法離名性相，不得不失故。」論曰：「即知一切法，不得不失，不來不去。」《華嚴》唱那字門，名得無依門，名得無依無上。疏云：「那者，諸法無有性相，言說文字，性相雙亡，故無依。能所詮泯，謂無上。」

【Na】In Qin, 'not'. The Large Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra states: "The letter-gate na: because all dharmas are free from name, nature, and characteristics, and cannot be attained or lost." The Treatise states: "One immediately knows that all dharmas cannot be attained or lost, and neither come nor go." In the Avataṃsaka Sūtra, chanting the letter-gate na is named 'attaining the gate of non-reliance', and named 'attaining unexcelled non-reliance'. The Commentary states: "'Na' means that all dharmas have neither nature nor characteristics; in speech and writing, both nature and characteristics vanish, hence there is 'non-reliance'. The signifier and the signified are obliterated; this is termed 'unexcelled'."
