5.63

[Gacchati] In Qin it means "to go". In the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā-prajñāpāramitā Sūtra, as for the cha-syllable gate, it is because one enters into the ungraspability of desire regarding all phenomena; and because like shadows, the five aggregates are also ungraspable. The Śāstra says: "One immediately knows that all phenomena have nowhere to go." In the Avataṃsaka Sūtra, when intoning the syllable cha (rising tone), it is called the treasury of expedients in practice, individually perfected. The Commentary says: "Namely, the obscuring nature of desire and pleasure."
