|EnglishCommentary=The summarized meaning of this is to be understood through [the following] four verses.
::'''It is inconceivable because it is inexpressible.'''
::'''It is inexpressible because it is the ultimate.'''
::'''It is the ultimate because it is incomprehensible by reason'''.
::'''It is incomprehensible by reason because it is immeasurable'''.<ref>Takasaki remarks that vyanumeya (DP ''dpag bya min'') here and in the next line should read ''vyupameya'' since the latter fits better with its referent ''upamanivṛttitaḥ'' in II.69. VT (fol. 14v7) confirms the reading ''(vi)anumeya'' while glossing it as ''(vy)upamā''.</ref> II.70
::'''It is immeasurable because it is unsurpassable.'''
::'''It is unsurpassable because it is not included [in saṃsāra or nirvāṇa]'''.
::'''It is not included [in them] because it does not abide [in either one]'''
::'''Since it lacks conceptions about their flaws and qualities, respectively'''. II.71
::'''Due to the [first] five reasons, [buddhahood] is subtle'''
::'''And therefore is inconceivable in terms of the dharmakāya'''.
::'''Due to the sixth one, it is not [manifest in] its truly real state'''
::'''And therefore is inconceivable in terms of the rūpakāya'''. II.72
::'''By virtue of the qualities of unsurpassable wisdom and great compassion''',
::'''The victors, who have accomplished [all] qualities, are inconceivable'''.
::'''Therefore, this final stage of the self-arisen ones is not even known'''
::'''By the great seers who have obtained the empowerment'''.<ref>This refers to bodhisattvas on the tenth bhūmi who receive an empowerment through light rays from all buddhas.</ref> II.73
