金剛般若經旨贊 2.58

2.58

As for “nominal designations,” they are the mark of a self, because the mark of a self in sentient beings is merely a nominal designation. As for “aggregate-matters,” they are the mark of phenomena, because the substantial entities of the five aggregates constitute the mark of phenomena. Because the Buddha has realized reality, he speaks of the two absences: because there is no mark of a self, he says that all marks are non-marks; because there is no mark of phenomena, all sentient beings are not sentient beings. Explaining the sūtra like this accords with the intention of the treatise.
