5.39

【Laghu】In Qin, 'light'. The Large Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra states that the letter-gate la is because all dharmas are the gate of transcending the world, and also because the causes of the branches of craving are extinguished. The Treatise states: "If one hears the letter la, one immediately knows that all dharmas are free from the marks of lightness and heaviness." In the Avataṃsaka Sūtra, chanting the letter-gate la is named 'free from reliance and stainless'. The Commentary states: "The letter la means awakening to all dharmas being free from the mundane world."
