[603] *"For which there is no simile anywhere"* (yassa natthi upamā kvaci): *"For which"* (yassa) refers to Nibbāna. *"There is no simile"*: there is no simile, there is no comparison, there is nothing similar, there is no counterpart; it does not exist, is not found, is not to be obtained. *"Anywhere"* (kvaci): anywhere, in anything, in any place — whether internally, or externally, or both internally and externally. Hence, "for which there is no simile anywhere." Therefore the Elder Piṅgiya said: "He who taught me the Dhamma — to be seen for oneself (sandiṭṭhika), not delayed (akālika), the destruction of craving (taṇhā), free from peril — for which there is no simile anywhere."
