Ratnagotravibhāga Root Verse I.64

Verse I.64 Variations

नाभिनिर्वर्तयत्येनं कर्मक्लेशाम्बुसंचयः
न निर्दहत्युदीर्णोऽपि मृत्युव्याधिजरानलः
nābhinirvartayatyenaṃ karmakleśāmbusaṃcayaḥ
na nirdahatyudīrṇo'pi mṛtyuvyādhijarānalaḥ
E. H. Johnston as input by the University of the West.[1]
།ལས་དང་ཉོན་མོངས་ཆུ་སོགས་ཀྱིས།
།འདི་ནི་མངོན་པར་འགྲུབ་མིན་ཏེ།
།འཆི་དང་ན་དང་རྒ་བའི་མེ།
།མི་བཟད་པས་ཀྱང་འཚིག་མི་འགྱུར།
The mass of water-like karma
And afflictions does not generate it,
Nor do the raging fires of death,
Sickness, and aging consume it.
L’eau des affections et des actes
Ne saurait la produire, guère plus
Que ne sauraient la consumer les feux insupportables
De la maladie, de la vieillesse et de la mort.

Obermiller (1931) [3]
It does not become produced
By the waters of the Biotic Force, of Desire and the rest,
And it cannot be consumed by the violent fires
Of death, of illness, and infirmity.
Takasaki (1966) [4]
The accumulation of water-like Active Force and Defilements
Cannot produce this space-like [Innate Mind],
And even the growing fires of death, of illness and old age
Cannot consume [this Innate Mind].
Fuchs (2000) [5]
The nature of mind as the element of space
does not [depend upon] causes or conditions,
nor does it [depend on] a gathering of these.
It has neither arising, cessation, nor abiding.
