Homage. Bless the doctrine and its upholders. A form endowed with the supreme discipline of higher morality. The Vinaya, the pure Dharma, is the foundation of the doctrine. Without mixing with thoughts of fear, protection, or good wishes. Knowing the nature of samsara as the truth of suffering. Thereby abandoning its cause, the origin. The result of the path is the infallible truth. Examining the basis of harm to others and the Dharma basis of all virtuous deeds. The discipline of abandoning two hundred and fifty precepts, And the discipline of entering into seventeen precepts to be adopted, Free from failures, downfalls, misdeeds, and remaining faults. A realm completely purified by the rituals of the three matters. May the four fruits of the shramana, such as stream-enterer, be attained. Manifest enlightenment, the higher concentration, And the higher wisdom, a completely purified form. Through the eight grounds of increasing white qualities, May the truth of cessation be realized, and the state of Arhat be attained. Thus, this was composed by Rangjung Dorje, the Great Perfection practitioner, in Drigung in Upper Ü-Tsang, before the eminent and faithful disciple, the Second Nyidrak, the Third Rinpoche, keeping the words of the Kashmiri Pandit intact, and adding verses before and after. Good! Good! Good! Offering to the Abiding Ones.
