tatredam ucyate -
sarvabhāvo ’svabhāvo hi sadvacanaṃ tathāpy asat |
śūnyatāśūnyatārthaṃ vā bālo ’paśyan vidhāvati || 2.145 || 
爾時，世尊欲重宣此義而說偈言：
(17)「諸性無自性， 亦復無言說，
(18)甚深空空義， 愚夫不能了。 
.

§XXXIV
Thus it is said:
145 In all things there is no self-nature, words too are devoid of reality; as the ignorant understand not what is meant by emptiness, yes, by emptiness, they wander about. 
sarvabhāvasvabhāvā ca vacanam api nṛṇām |
kalpanā sāpi nāsti nirvāṇaṃ svapnatulyam |
bhavaṃ parīkṣeta na saṃsāre nāpi nirvāyāt || 2.146 || 
(19)一切性自性， 言說法如影， 
. 
. 
. 
. 
146 In all things there is no self-nature, they are mere words of people; that which is discriminated has no reality; [even] Nirvāṇa is like a dream; nothing is seen to be in transmigration, nor does anything ever enter into Nirvāṇa. 
rājā śreṣṭhī yathā putrān vicitrair mṛnmayair mṛgaiḥ |
pralobhya krīḍayitvā ca bhūtān dadyāt tato mṛgān || 2.147 || 
 
. 
. 
. 
. 
147 As a king or a wealthy householder, giving his children various clay-made animals, pleases them and makes them play [with the toys], but later gives them real ones; 
tathāhaṃ lakṣaṇaiś citrair dharmāṇāṃ pratibimbakaiḥ |
pratyātmavedyāṃ putrebhyo bhūtakoṭiṃ vadāmy aham || 2.148 || 
(20)自覺聖智子， 實際我所說。」 
. 
. 
. 
. 
148 So, I, making use of various forms and images of things, instruct my sons; but the limit of reality (bhutakoti) can [only] be realised within oneself.
