Thus may I abide, sustained
By simple, ordinary fare. And in every life obtain
A dwelling place in perfect solitude.

Puissé-je vivre d’une nourriture
Frugale mais rester vigoureux, Et dans toutes mes vies trouver
De parfaites solitudes !
Que pueda mantenerme sustentándome
con comida sencilla y básica, y en todas mis vidas encuentre
lugares para habitar en perfecta soledad.
And attain perfection.
Whenever I wish to study,
Or have even small questions,
May I be able to behold without obstructions
May I live with dignity
On simple ordinary food, And throughout all of my lives,
Obtain magnificent seclusion.[p.458]A Commentary on Shantideva's Engaging in the Conduct of the BodhisattvasGyaltsen, Lama Kalsang, and Ani Kunga Chodron, trans.

Tsadra Critical Edition §This text was created by comparing four versions of the text from Derge, Cone, Narthang, and Peking Tengyurs from BDRC scans, along with Dunhuang manuscripts IOL Tib J 628, 629, and 630. When Tibetan readings were problematic, the Sanskrit texts from GRETIL and LTB (Oslo) were consulted.
