| a2+ | No matter how many Śuddhavāsa gods rise here, [each] obtains the happiness of the highest truth of the eternal nirvāṇa. (Peyrot 2013c: 323) |
|---|---|
| a6 | … the happiness of joy comes about in his body: he is not able to tell the joy of the fulfilling of the dear [lit. great] wish, to teach it or to let it know in a metaphor. (Peyrot 2013c: 667) |
| b3 | Who has the jñānasaṃbhāra of a hundred kalpas here, … (Peyrot 2013c: 675) |
| b4 | If his definite shape and form are not gone or lost, the Āryamarga [the noble path] is at once lit up for him without teacher and without teaching. (Peyrot 2013c: 675) |
| b5 | … he witnesses the 37 laws and attains the rank of a pratyeka Buddha and second he becomes worthy of receiving gifts … (Peyrot 2013c: 675) |
| b6+ | To whom, however, compassion and wisdom arise, and who does not turn back from the effort for countless ages, and does not make the consciousness of hindrance … and takes …, and does not think «I cannot», even oṣ or honey does not delight his heart if he takes the sorrows of the beings of the five births in his vajra-like heart. (cf 476) (Peyrot 2013c: 675) |
| b7 | Auch ... oder Honig wird nicht [sein] Herz erfreuen, wenn er die Leiden der Fünfgeburten[wesen] in [sein] Herz nimmt [bzw. in [seinem] Herzen trägt]. (Schmidt 1974: 364) |
