According to the meaning of the prophecy, I was immediately honored with the excellent gift of the command to compose a record of debates drawn from reasoning. Dharma Kirti, an inferior monk of Mindrolling Monastery, who has comprehended the meaning of the Sutra and Tantra doctrines, engaged in the work of writing during the meditation sessions at the age of fifty-seven. It was completed in his own monastery on the auspicious second day of the waxing moon of the second Hor month, Saga Dawa, of the Water Rat year (1972), a day of perfect auspiciousness, the day of the memorial offering to Je Lama (Tsongkhapa). May it be auspicious! May this become a cause for the flourishing and spreading of the precious teachings! Good! Sarva dā kalyaṇaṃ bhavantu. (梵文:Sarva dā kalyaṇaṃ bhavantu.)
