Being unconditioned, effortless,
Not being produced through other conditions,
And possessing wisdom, compassion, and power,
Buddhahood is endowed with the two welfares.

Réalisée sans conditions étrangères, Pourvue de sagesse, de compassion et de puissance, Ainsi que des deux bienfaits.

Other English translations

Obermiller (1931) ^[3]

Immutable, free from effort,

Incognizable from without,

Endowed with Wisdom, Love, and Power,

And pursuing a twofold aim—such is Buddhahood.

Takasaki (1966) ^[4]

Being immutable, free from efforts

And not being dependent upon the others,

[Also] Being endowed with Wisdom, Compassion and [supernatural] Power [imparted by both],

The Buddhahood has two kinds of benefit.

Fuchs (2000) ^[5]

Being uncreated and spontaneously present,

not a realization due to extraneous conditions,

wielding knowledge, compassionate love, and ability,

buddhahood has [the qualities of] the two benefits.
