They taught this so that those in whom they exist
May relinquish the five flaws of faintheartedness,
Contempt for inferior sentient beings, clinging to what is unreal,
Deprecating the real dharma, and excessive self-cherishing.

Perdre courage et mépriser les êtres plus humbles que soi,
Croire à ce qui n’est pas vrai, déprécier le vrai Dharma Et, enfin, être trop attaché à soi-même : voilà cinq défauts Que cet enseignement se propose d’éliminer chez ceux qu’ils affectent.

Other English translations
Obermiller (1931) [7]
- There are 5 kinds of defects (in a living being):—
- Depression of the mind, contempt regarding those that are inferior，
- Evaluation of the unreal, nihilistic views regarding the Absolute Truth.
- (The teaching about the element of Buddhahood) has been exposed
- In order that those with whom these defects exist
- Might become rid of them.[8]
Takasaki (1966) [9]
- There are 5 defects [caused by the previous teaching]:
- The depressed mind, contempt against those who are inferior,
- Clinging to things unreal, speaking ill of Truth,
- And besides, affection for one's self.
- [The teaching about Essence of the Buddha] has been taught
- In order that those who are possessed of these defects
- Might get rid of their defects.
Holmes (1985) [10]
- There are five mistakes: faint-heartedness,
- contempt for those of lesser ability,
- to believe in the false,
- to speak about the true nature badly
- and to cherish oneself above all else.
- So that those in whom these above were there
- might rid themselves of them, therefore was it declared.
Holmes (1999) [11]
- There are five mistakes: faint-heartedness,
- contempt for those of lesser ability, belief in the false,
- slandering the true meaning and self-cherishing.
- So that those in whom the above exist may rid themselves
- of these, thus was it declared.
Fuchs (2000) [12]
- With regard to faintheartedness, contempt for inferior beings,
- perceiving the untrue, disparaging the true nature,
- and exceeding self-cherishing, he said this to persuade those
- who have any of these five to abandon their defects.

- In the Sanskrit we have ātmasneha, which most likely should be བདག་ཆགས་, but the Dege edition has ཅག་

- I follow MA/MB bālajanam against J bālapṛthagjanam and DP byi pa so so’i skye bo.
- Schmithausen parallels "here and there" (tatra tatra) with "in each sentient being" (sattve sattve) in the last line. Thus, one would have to translate "Having said that, [in sentient beings] here and there, . . ." However, the more likely meaning is "here and there in the mahāyāna sūtras,"which is confirmed by VT (fol. 14r1) that glosses "here and there" as "in the sūtras." This also corresponds to C’s rendering sūtra [koṭi] ṣu ("sūtra"in transcription!) instead of bhūtakoṭiṣu in I.158b.
- With Takasaki, the Sanskrit of this line could also be read as "everything is to be understood as being empty in all respects,"but I read it following DP shes bya thams cad rnam kun stong pa zhes.
