Obermiller (1931) [7]
- As riches, being hidden in the ground,
- Are not known of and cannot be obtained,
- Similarly, in the living beings, the self-sprung (essence)
- Is obscured by the elementary force of illusion.
Takasaki (1966) [8]
- Just as the people, because of their ignorance,
- Cannot obtain the treasure hidden under the ground,
- In a similar way, they cannot obtain the Buddhahood
- Hindered by the Dwelling Place of Ignorance.
Fuchs (2000) [9]
- When wealth is hidden, one is ignorant of it
- and therefore does not obtain the treasure.
- Likewise self-sprung [wisdom] is veiled in arhats
- by the ground of remaining imprints of ignorance.

- DP "Just as an unknown treasure is not obtained due to its gems being obscured, so the self-arisen in people [skye la is difficult to construct] is obscured by the ground of the latent tendencies of ignorance" (ji ltar nor ni bsgribs pas na / mi shes gter mi thob pa ltar / de bzhin skye la rang byung nyid / ma rig bag chags sa yis bsgribs /).
- Against Takasaki and DP (ram par smin pa bzhin) understanding °vat in vipākavat as "like,"I follow de Jong’s suggestion of taking vipākavat as a possessive adjective relating to jñānam Thus, the nonconceptual wisdom mentioned here seems to refer to the wisdom on the last three bhūmis that emerges from the stains of the preceding seven bhūmis, just as an embryo emerges from the womb.
- DP omit "wisdom."
- DP "basic element" (khams).
