{P103a} The substantial cause of the fires of '''the sufferings of death, sickness, and aging''' during the phase of [the tathāgata element’s] being impure is the fuel-like being '''born''' that is preceded by improper mental engagement, '''karma, and afflictions'''. In bodhisattvas during the phase of [the tathāgata element’s] being both impure and pure, who have obtained a body of a mental nature, there is no appearance whatsoever [of such a cause]. {D99b} Because of that, it is understood that the others [the fires of death and so on that are the results of being born] do not blaze at all [either]. | |||

།འཕགས་པས་འཆི་དང་ན་བ་དང་།
།རྒ་བའི་སྡུག་བསྔལ་རྩད་ནས་སྤངས།
།ལས་དང་ཉོན་མོངས་དབང་གིས་སྐྱེ།
།དེ་ལ་དེ་མེད་ཕྱིས་དེ་མེད།
།རྒ་བའི་སྡུག་བསྔལ་རྩད་ནས་སྤངས།
།ལས་དང་ཉོན་མོངས་དབང་གིས་སྐྱེ།
།དེ་ལ་དེ་མེད་ཕྱིས་དེ་མེད།
The root of the sufferings of death, sickness,
And aging is removed by the noble ones.
[Such suffering] is born from the power of karma and afflictions,
[But] they lack it because they lack these.
And aging is removed by the noble ones.
[Such suffering] is born from the power of karma and afflictions,
[But] they lack it because they lack these.
Les sublimes [bodhisattvas] ont dissipé les souffrances
De la mort, de la maladie et de la vieillesse. La naissance dérivant des affections et des actes N’est plus et ses suites ne seront point.

Other English translations
Obermiller (1931) [4]
- The Saint has rooted out the suffering
- Of death, of illness, and old age.
- He is not subjected to the birth conditioned by the Biotic Force and Desire;
- Therefore the sufferings of the Phenomenal World which follow (such as birth)
- Are not experienced by him.
Takasaki (1966) [5]
- The sufferings of death, illness and decrepitude
- Are destroyed by the Saints to the root;
- There is a birth by the power of Active Force and Defilements;
- As there is no birth [of such a kind]
- The saints have no root [of defilements].
Fuchs (2000) [6]
- The noble have eradicated the suffering
- of dying, falling ill, and aging at its root,
- which is being born due to karma and poisons.
- There being no such [cause], there is no such [fruit].

- For lines I.67cd, I follow Schmithausen. However, the commentary interprets jātiḥ as "birth" and takes suffering to be a result of birth, which is in turn caused by karma and afflictions (thus taking these lines to mean "They lack this [suffering] because they lack being born through the power of karma and afflictions"). As Schmithausen points out, this interpretation is difficult to read into these two lines (in particular, the phrase jātis tadabhāvān does not suggest "lacking birth").
