Why are these called "The All"?

Based on the sutta quote below: 1. Why are these called "The All": the eye & forms, ear & sounds, nose & aromas, tongue & flavors, body & tactile sensations, intellect & ideas? 2. Why someone trying to explain "The All" as being something else would fail? 3. What does "it lies beyond range" mean? From Sabba Sutta : > "Monks, I will teach you the All. Listen & pay close attention. I will > speak." > > "As you say, lord," the monks responded. > > The Blessed One said, "What is the All? Simply the eye & forms, ear & > sounds, nose & aromas, tongue & flavors, body & tactile sensations, > intellect & ideas. This, monks, is called the All. Anyone who > would say, 'Repudiating this All, I will describe another,' if > questioned on what exactly might be the grounds for his statement, > would be unable to explain, and furthermore, would be put to grief. > Why? Because it lies beyond range."
