Obermiller (1931) [4]
- In a like way the Lord perceives the true virtues of the living beings
- Sunk amidst the passions that are like impurities,
- And, in order to wash off this dirt of Desire,
- Lets the rain of the Highest Doctrine descend on all that lives.
Takasaki (1966) [5]
- Similarly, the Buddha perceives the quality of living beings
- Drowned in the Defilements which are like impurities,
- And pours the rain of the Doctrine over the living beings
- In order to wash off that dirt of defilements.
Fuchs (2000) [6]
- Likewise the Muni sees the quality [of] beings,
- which is sunken in the filth-like mental poisons,
- and pours his rain of sacred Dharma upon them
- to purify the muddiness of their afflictions.
