།སངས་རྒྱས་ཆོས་ཚོགས་ཁམས་དང་བྱང་ཆུབ་དང་།

།ཡོན་ཏན་སངས་རྒྱས་ཕྲིན་ལས་ཐ་མ་སྟེ།

།རྡོ་རྗེ་ཡི་ནི་གནས་བདུན་འདི་དག་གོ།

Buddha, dharma, assembly, basic element,

Awakening, qualities, and finally buddha activity–
The body of the entire treatise
Is summarized in these seven vajra points. I.1

我今悉歸命,  一切無上尊,

為[5]開法王藏,   廣利諸群生。
諸佛勝妙法,   謗以為非法,
愚癡無智慧,   迷於邪正故。

The Buddha, the Doctrine, and the Community,

The Essence [of the Buddha], the Supreme Enlightenment, The Virtuous Qualities [of the Buddha], And, last of all, the Act of the Buddha; — These are the 7 Adamantine Subjects, [which show] Briefly, the body of the whole text.

Takasaki, p. 141[3], from Sanskrit with reference to the Chinese.
Le Bouddha, le Dharma, la Communauté, l’Élément, l’Éveil,
Les qualités et, enfin, les activités éveillées
Le corps du traité tout entier se ramène
À ces sept points de vajra.
