Since it is subtle, it is not an object of study.
Since it is the ultimate, it is not [an object] of reflection.
Since it is the depth of the nature of phenomena,
It is not [an object] of worldly meditation and so forth.
When the Clouds Part, Brunnhölzl, 421 [3]
De par sa subtilité, ce n’est pas un objet d’étude.
Absolue, ce n’est un objet de réflexion.
Profonde essence du réel, ce n’est pas non plus l’objet
Des méditations mondaines et autres.
