5.54

[Śpa] The syllable śpa door in the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra is because the syllable śpa of all dharmas is ungraspable. The Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa says: "If one hears the syllable śpa, one immediately knows that all dharmas are ungraspable like the syllable śpa. The syllable śpa has no meaning, so it is not explained." In the Avataṃsaka Sūtra, when chanting the syllable śa, it is named "mindfulness of the adornments of all buddhas." The Commentary says: "That is the nature of peace and security."
