Translation
| a1 | ... you strived for the position of the Buddha. You accumulated distinctions. You tamed your thought and thinking... |
|---|---|
| a2 | ... distinguished... I worship the glory of all of your births with honor and love. |
| a2+ | That... I... (have praised?) with words the distinctions, has been lost in the end with (just) one Akṣara... |
| b1 | ... for how long it would be necessary for me to turn in the Saṃsāra thereafter, your glory... |
| b2 | ... my meagre glory would disappear. Like the sword... executioner's block... |
Other
| a1+ | Um den Ort des (Alles)wissenden hast du dich bemüht; Glanz [im Toch. Plural] hast du gesammelt; Geist [und] Denken hast du (durch deine) ausgezeichnete (Würde) gebändigt. (Schmidt 1974: 337) |
