Quotations
བསོད་ནམས་ཆུང་ངུ་ཆོས་འདི་ལ། །
ཐེ་ཚོམ་ཟ་བར་ཡང་མི་འགྱུར། །
ཐེ་ཚོམ་ཟ་བར་ཙམ་ཞིག་གིས། །
སྲིད་པ་ཧྲུལ་པོར་བྱས་པར་འགྱུར། །
Those with little merit will not
Even wonder about these things.
But merely to entertain doubts
About saṃsāra will make it fall apart.
- Āryadeva, Four Hundred Verses, VIII, 5
བསོད་ནམས་མིན་པ་དང་པོར་བཟློག །
བར་དུ་བདག་ནི་བཟློག་པ་དང༌། །
ཕྱི་ནས་ལྟ་བ་ཀུན་བཟློག་པ། །
གང་གིས་ཤེས་དེ་མཁས་པ་ཡིན། །
At first, turn away from non-virtue,
In the middle, dispel misconceptions of self,
Finally, go beyond all philosophical views—
One who understands this is wise indeed.
- Āryadeva, Four Hundred Verses, VIII, 15
དངོས་པོ་གཅིག་གི་ལྟ་པོ་གང༌། །
དེ་ནི་ཀུན་གྱི་ལྟ་པོར་བཤད། །
གཅིག་གི་སྟོང་ཉིད་གང་ཡིན་པ། །
དེ་ནི་ཀུན་གྱི་སྟོང་པ་ཉིད། །
Whoever sees the nature of one thing
Is said to see the nature of everything.
For the emptiness of one thing
Is the emptiness of everything.
- Āryadeva, Four Hundred Verses, VIII, 16
