Without beginning, middle, and end, undifferentiable,<br>Nondual, freed in three ways, stainless, and nonconceptual—<br>This is the nature of the dharmadhātu, which is seen<br>In meditative equipoise by yogins who strive for it. +
It is the stainless basic element of the tathāgatas,<br>Which is endowed with qualities that are immeasurable, inconceivable,<br>Unequaled, and far surpass the sand grains in the river Gaṅgā [in number]<br>And which has eradicated all flaws including their latent tendencies. +
