| English | The merit (arising) from bodhicitta if it took shape having filled the sky would yet surpass it (Between) a man who would offer to the Lords of the world Buddha fields filled with jewels as many as the sands of the Ganges And one who, having made prāñjali bows his mind to Awakening — It is this worship that excels, of which there is no end. |
