Verse II.67 Variations
नित्यमशरणानां च शरणाभ्युपपत्तितः
nityamaśaraṇānāṃ ca śaraṇābhyupapattitaḥ
།ཐུབ་པ་གདོད་ནས་རབ་ཞིའི་ཕྱིར།
།རྟག་པ་སྐྱབས་མེད་རྣམས་ཀྱི་ནི།
།སྐྱབས་ལ་སོགས་པར་འཐད་ཕྱིར་རོ།
Is unconditioned, being primordially at peace,
And by virtue of being tenable as the refuge and so on
Of those without refuge, [the Buddha] is permanent.
- Parce que, inconditionné par nature,
- Le sage est apaisé dès l’origine
- Et parce qu’il est logique qu’il soit le refuge
- De ceux qui n’ont pas de refuge permanent.
