Similarly, always seeing the luminosity of [mind’s] nature<br>And that the stains are adventitious,<br>The one with the highest awakening purifies beings,<br>Who are like a jewel mine, from the obscurations. +

Just as an image made of stainless shining gold enclosed in clay would settle<br>And a skillful jeweler, knowing about this [gold], would remove the clay,<br>So the omniscient one sees that the mind, which resembles pure gold, is settled<br>And removes its obscurations by way of the strokes that are the means of teaching the dharma. +
Like within a lotus, insects that are bees,<br>Husks, excrement, the earth,<br>The peel of a fruit, a filthy garment,<br>The womb of a woman, and a covering of clay, +

The beginningless stainlessness of the nature<br>Of the mind within the beginningless cocoons<br>Of the afflictions that are not connected to<br>The basic element of sentient beings is declared to be. +
They perfectly realize that the endpoint of the identitylessness of the entire world is peace<br>Because they see that, by virtue of the natural luminosity of the minds in this [world], the afflictions are without nature.<br>I pay homage to those who see that perfect buddhahood is all-pervading, whose intelligence is unobscured,<br>And whose wisdom vision has the purity and infinitude of beings as its objects. +

The impurities of naive beings,<br>Arhats, learners, and the intelligent<br>Are [explained] in due order by these four,<br>One, two, and two stains, respectively. +
