Verse I.124 Variations
बिम्बं बहिर्मृन्मयमेक्ष्य शान्तम्
अन्तर्विशुद्ध्यै कनकस्य तज्ज्ञः
संचोदयेदावरणं बहिर्धा
bimbaṃ bahirmṛnmayamekṣya śāntam
antarviśuddhyai kanakasya tajjñaḥ
saṃcodayedāvaraṇaṃ bahirdhā
།ཞི་བ་ཕྱི་རོལ་ས་ཡི་རང་བཞིན་ཅན།
།མཐོང་ནས་དེ་ཤེས་པ་དག་ནང་གི་གསེར།
།སྦྱང་ཕྱིར་ཕྱི་རོལ་སྒྲིབ་པ་སེལ་བྱེད་ལྟར།
But consisting of clay on the outside, after having settled,
Were seen by someone who knows about this [gold inside],
Who would then remove the outer covering to purify the inner gold.
Présente, du dehors, une nature argileuse. Ce que voyant, les êtres avertis enlèveront l’enveloppe extérieure Pour nettoyer la [statue en] or qui se trouve à l’intérieur.
