Of these [seven subjects],<br>
Accompanied by their own characteristics,<br>
One should know respectively the [first] three subjects<br>
From the introductory chapter in the Dhāranirāja—sūtra<br>
And the [latter] four from [the chapter on] the distinction<br>
Between the qualities of the Bodhisattva<br>
and those of the Buddha. +
tyājyatvān moṣadharmatvādabhāvāt sabhayatvataḥ<br>dharmo dvidhāryasaṃghaśca nātyantaṃ śaraṇaṃ param +
Because of being abandoned, because of having a deceptive nature,<br>Because of being nonexistent, and because of being fearful,<br>The twofold dharma and the noble saṃgha<br>Are not the ultimate supreme refuge. +
jagaccharaṇamekatra buddhatvaṃ pāramārthikam<br>munerdharmaśarīratvāt tanniṣṭhatvādgaṇasya ca +
Ultimately, however, the single refuge<br>Of the world is buddhahood<br>Because the sage possesses the body of the dharma<br>And because it is the consummation of the assembly. +
They are jewels because their appearance is difficult to encounter,<br>Because they are stainless, because they possess power,<br>Because they are the ornaments of the world,<br>Because they are supreme, and because they are changeless. +

samalā tathatātha nirmalā vimalāḥ buddhaguṇā jinakriyā<br>viṣayaḥ paramārthadarśināṃ śubharatnatrayasargako yataḥ +
Suchness with stains, the one without stains,<br>Stainless buddha qualities, and the activity of the victors<br>Are the objects of those who see the ultimate,<br>From which the three splendid jewels arise. +
gotraṃ ratnatrayasyāsya viṣayaḥ sarvadarśinām<br>caturvidhaḥ sa cācintyaścaturbhiḥ kāraṇaiḥ kramāt +
The disposition of the three jewels<br>Is the object of those who see everything.<br>It is fourfold and is inconceivable<br>For four reasons in due order +
śuddhyupakliṣṭatāyogāt niḥsaṃkleśaviśuddhitaḥ<br>avinirbhāgadharmatvādanābhogāvikalpataḥ +
Since it is pure and yet associated with afflictions,<br>Since it is not afflicted and yet becomes pure,<br>Since its qualities are inseparable,<br>And since its activity is effortless and nonconceptual. +
As for what is to be awakened, awakening,<br>Its branches, and what causes awakening, in due order,<br>One point is the cause and three<br>Are the conditions for its purity. +
bodhyaṃ bodhistadaṅgāni bodhaneti yathākramam<br>heturekaṃ padaṃ trīṇi pratyayastadviśuddhaye +
Since buddha wisdom enters into the multitudes of beings,<br>Since its stainlessness is nondual by nature,<br>And since the buddha disposition is metaphorically referred to by [the name of] its fruition,<br>All beings are said to possess the buddha [heart]. +

Since the perfect buddhakaya '''radiates''',<br>Since '''suchness''' is undifferentiable,<br>And because of the '''disposition''',<br>All beings always '''possess''' the buddha heart. +
