The mass of water-like karma<br>And afflictions does not generate it,<br>Nor do the raging fires of death,<br>Sickness, and aging consume it. +

The three fires—the fire at the end of an age,<br>The one in hell, and ordinary [fire]—<br>Should be understood, in due order, as the examples<br>For the three fires of death, sickness, and aging. +

Having realized the nature of this [basic element] just as it is,<br>Free from birth, death, sickness, and aging,<br>The intelligent, due to giving rise to compassion for beings,<br>Assume the predicaments of birth and so on despite lacking their causes. +
The root of the sufferings of death, sickness,<br>And aging is removed by the noble ones.<br>[Such suffering] is born from the power of karma and afflictions,<br>[But] they lack it because they lack these. +

Due to their character of compassion,<br>They display birth, death, aging, and sickness,<br>[But] they are beyond birth and so on<br>Because they see [the basic element] as it really is. +
dharmatāṃ prativicyemāmavikārāṃ jinātmajaḥ<br>dṛśyate yadavidyāndhairjātyādiṣu tadadbhūtam +
[Despite] their realization that this true nature<br>Is changeless, the children of the victors<br>Are [still] seen as [being subject to] birth and so on<br>By those blinded by ignorance—this is amazing! +
It is not produced through other conditions<br>Because it is to be realized personally.<br>Thus, it is wisdom because it is threefold awakening.<br>It is compassion because it teaches the path. +

Therefore, the means and the compassion<br>Of the friends of beings are supreme—<br>They have attained the sphere of the noble ones<br>And yet show themselves in the sphere of naive beings. +

Being beyond all worlds,<br>They do not move away from the world,<br>Conducting themselves in the world for the sake of the world<br>Without being tainted by worldly stains. +
Just as a lotus born in the water<br>Is not tainted by the water,<br>So they are born in the world<br>But are untainted by worldly dharmas. +
