निर्विकल्पम् अनाभोगं नाध्यात्मं न बहिः स्थितम्
nirvikalpam anābhogaṃ nādhyātmaṃ na bahiḥ sthitam
གཞན་གྱི་རྣམ་རིག་ལས་བྱུང་བ། །
རྣམ་པར་རྟོག་མེད་བཟོ་མེད་ཅིང་། །
ཕྱི་དང་ནང་ན་གནས་མ་ཡིན། །
Arises in the cognizance of others,
Is without thought, effortless,
And abides neither inside nor outside.
- De même, la parole des bouddhas,
- Qui jaillit de la perception des êtres,
- N’a pas de pensées, n’est pas fabriquée
- Et ne se tient pas plus dedans que dehors.

Obermiller (1931) [6]
- Similar to it is the voice of the Buddha.
- It arises through the intimations of others,
- Is devoid of searching thought, is inconceivable,
- And has no real foundation, neither within, nor without.
Takasaki (1966) [7]
- In a similar way, the voice of the Buddha
- Arising through the voice of others
- Is of no discrimination and of no effort,
- And has no foundation, either inside or outside.
Fuchs (2000) [8]
- so the speech of the Tathagata arises
- due to the perception of others,
- without thought or purposeful labor
- and neither abiding without or within.
