Verse IV.26 Variations
सद्धर्मकायं मध्यस्थं पश्यन्ति ज्ञानचक्षुषा
saddharmakāyaṃ madhyasthaṃ paśyanti jñānacakṣuṣā
།ཐེག་པ་འདི་ལ་གནས་པ་རྣམས།
།ནང་གི་དམ་པ་ཆོས་སྐུ་ནི།
།ཡེ་ཤེས་མིག་གིས་མཐོང་བར་འགྱུར།
Those who dwell in this method
See the inner kāya of the genuine dharma
Through their eye of wisdom.
- Petit à petit, les êtres qui s’en tiennent
- À ce véhicule-ci verront, du fait de cette vision,
- Le suprême corps absolu à l’intérieur d’eux-mêmes
- Avec l’œil de la sagesse primordiale.

- D100, fols. 278b.6–280b.1.
- DP "yāna."
- I follow MB saddharmakāyam adhyātmaṃ (corresponding to DP nang gi dam pa’i chos sku) against J saddharmakāyaṃ madhyasthaṃ.
- With Schmithausen and against Takasaki, I take the compound °viṣamasthānāntaramala as consisting of viṣamasthāna, antara, and mall.
- VT (fol. 16r4) glosses śubhra as "clear, transparent" (svacchā). Śubhra can also mean "radiant," "splendid," "spotless," and "bright"; DP have mazes pa.
- I follow Schmithausen’s suggested reading of MB surapatibhavanavyūhendramarutām against J surapatibhavanaṃ māhendramarutām, with °vyūha being supported by D tshogs (P mistakenly has sna tshogs instead of gas tshogs). The maruts are the storm gods who are the retinue of Indra.
- I follow de Jong’s suggested reading cittāny udpādayanti (supported by D seems rab bskyed byed; P mistakenly has gshegs instead of seems) against J cittān vyutpādayanti and Chowdury’s "correction" citrāṇy utpādayanati (see de Jong 1968, 50). Obviously, this refers to all the kinds of mind-sets that represent or flow from bodhicitta.
