Buddhahood is inconceivable, permanent, everlasting, quiescent, eternal,
Peaceful, all-pervasive, and free from conception, just like space.
It is everywhere without attachment and obstruction, free from harsh sensations,
Invisible, ungraspable, splendid, and stainless.
When the Clouds Part, Brunnhölzl, 421 [3]
Inconcevable, permanent, stable, paisible, éternel,

Apaisé, omniprésent, libre de la pensée, pareil à l’espace, Libre d’attachement, nulle part entravé, sans plus de contacts grossiers, Invisible, insaisissable et vertueux, le Bouddha est immaculé.
