如是。 乘之基石，旁生之余绪， 示现心之幻化网， 根本为二十二品。 仅以略微之言，受他人劝请， 依循经文，如上师之言而书写。 若有抵触错谬之处，向上师、佛陀及空行母等，于自心之中忏悔。 将辛劳之善根回向于一切众生。 以文字之明灯记录于文字， 愿具慧者修持之后， 皆能获得金刚持之位， 成为引导众生脱离无边轮回苦海之导师。 一切律藏之源， 解脱之根本， 根本续密意精华之， 字解日藏精要， 乃经具修持之力之大德所著。 三世诸佛之意旨记录于文字， 对于具善缘之法眼者， 于海螺之佛塔上， 如前所未有之月亮般，极度皎洁。 此乃一切续部之王，三界之珍宝，难得之宝藏，吉祥密意精华之释。 大上师夏迦妥当巴圣者往生后，如莲花王导师之无谬口耳传承窍诀之释。 居住于十一普光之地之法主藏敦多吉坚赞，将口述记录成文之稀有释规。 于此时代，值此甚深经函隐没之际， 司徒巴却吉嘉措善加寻觅，此经函乃自唐兴卓仲之古老寺院迎请而来。 自今以后，一切于三界之珍宝续王心幻化网密意精华之讲说、思维及禅修心生欢喜之具缘法眼者，皆应以信心阅览，于意义铭记于心，通达于心。 直至对于成就之宝藏甚深续王种下各自善妙之习气，皆应尽力而为，此乃必要之精要，如是劝诫亦于成就圣地噶妥多吉之座，善妙吉祥增盛。 善哉！善哉！善哉！ 嗡 索 悉 地。 诸佛所说之无量法门， 吉祥

In order to clarify the essence of the Dharma. Therefore, for the sake of the invaluable, That cannot be compared even with a wish-fulfilling jewel, By the virtue of printing this scripture, May the profound intentions of the omniscient Lama be fulfilled! May I and others who strive here, through the power of realizing the suchness of the net of illusion, Having traversed the supreme path of certainty, Vajrasattva, May we attain the state of the immovable king! May the lotus feet of the upholders of the teachings be firm for a long time, May those who harm the teachings not even have a name, May the essence of the teachings, both explanation and practice, increase, May the teachings flourish in the ten directions, may there be auspiciousness! May the self-nature of the ground be directly realized, And having traversed all the appearances of the path, May the great light of the enlightened ones' appearance, Uproot the darkness of the three realms from its roots! May the activity of this Dharma, even at the end of endless kalpas, Be well-maintained by the vidyadharas and appear to the fortunate ones. May there be unerring realization and may the true supreme path appear. May the oath-bound Dharma protectors guard this treasury! This is also a part of the blessing of the King of Dharma of the three realms, the 7th Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, written as a printing aspiration by Jamyang Lodrö Gyatso himself, a practitioner of virtue, may goodness and auspiciousness prevail! May the king of vehicles be extremely prosperous! May the lotus feet of the holders of the teachings be firm! May those who harm the teachings be empty even of name! May all beings become the cause of attaining Buddhahood! This is extracted from the verses of the last testament of Dharma Lord Katokpa Dampa Sherab Senge's passing into nirvana. Katokpa, known as the white continent. Its fame is boundless, pervading all Buddha fields. The Lord who is inseparable from all Buddhas, May the auspiciousness of that Lord be eternally stable!
