Just as, through the conditions of water, sunlight, wind, earth, time, and space,<br>A tree grows forth from within the sheath of palm fruits and mangos,<br>So the germ in the seed of the perfect buddha lodged inside the peel of the fruit of sentient beings’ afflictions<br>Will grow into the shootof dharma through such and such conditions of virtue. +

Suppose an image of the victor made of a precious substance<br>And wrapped in a filthy foul-smelling cloth<br>Were left on the road, and a deity, upon seeing it,<br>Speaks about this matter to those traveling by in order to set it free. +

Similarly, the one with unimpeded vision sees the body of a sugata<br>Concealed by the stains of various kinds of afflictions<br>Even in animals and demonstrates<br>The means for its liberation. +
atarkyatvādalāpyatvādāryajñānādacinyatā<br>śivatvādadvayākalpau śuddhyādi trayanarkavat +
Because of being inscrutable, because of being inexpressible,<br>And because of being the wisdom of the noble ones, it is inconceivable.<br>Because of being peaceful, it is free from the dual and without
conceptions.<br>[In its] three [qualities] such as being pure, it is like the sun. +

Just as the form of the Tathāgata made of a precious substance, wrapped in a foul-smelling garment,<br>And left on the road would be seen by someone with the divine eye and shown to people in order to set it free,<br>So the basic element wrapped in the filthy garment of the afflictions and left on the road of saṃsāra<br>Is seen by the victor even in animals, upon which he teaches the dharma for the sake of liberating it. +
Suppose an ugly woman without a protector,<br>Dwelling in a shelter for those without protection<br>And bearing the glory of royalty as an embryo,<br>Were not to know about the king in her own womb. +

Being born in [saṃsāric] existence is like a place for those without protection,<br>Impure sentient beings resemble the pregnant woman,<br>The stainless basic element in them is similar to her embryo,<br>And due to its existence, these [beings] do have a protector. +

Just as this woman whose body is covered with a dirty garment and who has an unsightly body<br>Would experience the greatest suffering in a shelter for those without protection despite this king’s residing in her womb,<br>So beings dwell in the abode of suffering due to their minds’ not being at peace through the power of the afflictions<br>And deem themselves to be without a protector despite the excellent protectors residing right within themselves. +

Suppose an image filled with molten gold inside<br>But consisting of clay on the outside, after having settled,<br>Were seen by someone who knows about this [gold inside],<br>Who would then remove the outer covering to purify the inner gold. +
