Obermiller (1931) [6]
- Immaterial, invisible,
- Inaccessible to the senses,
- Without support and without foundation,
- Formless and incapable of being pointed to—such is space.
Takasaki (1966) [7]
- Being immaterial and invisible,
- Without support and without foundation,
- Surpassing the way of eye-sight,
- Formless and incapable of being shown,
Fuchs (2000) [8]
- Space is nothing at all and does not appear.
- It is neither an object [of the senses] nor a support.
- It is totally beyond being a path for the eye.
- It has no form and is not to be demonstrated.

- Skt. niṣkiṃcane nirābhāse nirālambe nirāśraye / cakṣuṣpathavyatikrānte ’py arūpiṇy anidarśane /. Note that this list is very similar to the list of the characteristics of non-conceptual wisdom in the Dharmadharmatāvibhāga and Vasubandhu’s commentary on it (arūpy anidarśanam apratiṣṭham anābhāsam avijñaptikam aniketam), which is also found in the Avikalpapraveśadhāraṇī (Matsuda 1996, 96.5–6; D142, fol. 3b.4) and the Kāśyapaparivarta (Friedrich Weller, trans., Zum Kāśyapaparivarta [Berlin: Akademie-Verlag, 1965], 2:97). The Tibetan versified version of the Dharmadharmatāvibhāga and all versions of Vasubandhu’s commentary read brtag tu med pa for arūpi, thus indicating that term’s meaning "ungraspable." The same may apply here too for arūpiṇi (thus, "formless"would be "ungraspable").
