### [2.448](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.448)

不在方不離方。非有為非無為。無示無說　佛身住法性故不在方。菴園即法性故不離方。真身不生滅故非有為。丈六即真故非無為。應物而相非實相故不可示。應物而名非真名故不可說。

> "It is neither in a direction nor apart from a direction; it is neither conditioned nor unconditioned; it is without indication and without explanation." / Because the Buddha's body abides in the dharma nature, it is not in a direction. Because the Āmrapālī Grove is precisely the dharma nature, it is not apart from a direction. Because the true body does not arise or cease, it is not conditioned. Because the sixteen-foot body is precisely the true, it is not unconditioned. Characteristics that respond to things are not the true mark, and thus cannot be indicated; names that respond to things are not true names, and thus cannot be explained.
