|EnglishCommentary=[In the fifth example,] the '''afflictions''' are like the '''ground''' below, while the tathāgata element resembles a '''treasure of jewels'''.
::'''Suppose there were an inexhaustible treasure'''
::'''Beneath the ground within the house of a poor person,'''
::'''But that person would not know about this [treasure],'''
::'''Nor would the treasure say to that [person], "I am here!"''' I.112
::'''Similarly, with the stainless treasure of jewels lodged within the mind,'''
::'''Whose nature is to be inconceivable and inexhaustible,'''
::'''Not being realized, beings continuously experience'''
::'''The suffering of being destitute in many ways. I.113'''
::'''Just as a treasure of jewels lodged inside the abode of a pauper would not say'''
::'''To this person, "I, the jewel treasure, am here!," nor would this person know about it,'''
::'''So the treasure of the dharma is lodged in the house of the mind, and sentient beings resemble the pauper. {P112a}'''
::'''It is in order to enable them to attain this [treasure] that the seer takes birth in the world. I.114'''

Verse I.113 Variations

तद्वन्मनोऽन्तर्गतमप्य चिन्त्य-
मक्षय्यधर्मामलरत्नकोशम्
अबुध्यमानानुभवत्यजस्रं
दारिद्रयदुःखं बहुधा प्रजेयम्
tadvanmano'ntargatamapya cintya-
makṣayyadharmāmalaratnakośam
abudhyamānānubhavatyajasraṃ
dāridrayaduḥkhaṃ bahudhā prajeyam
E. H. Johnston as input by the University of the West.[1]
།དེ་བཞིན་ཡིད་ཀྱི་ནང་ཆུད་རིན་ཆེན་གཏེར།
།དྲི་མེད་གཞག་དང་བསལ་མེད་ཆོས་ཉིད་ཀྱང་།
།མ་རྟོགས་པས་ན་དབུལ་བའི་སྡུག་བསྔལ་ནི།
།རྣམ་མང་རྒྱུན་དུ་སྐྱེ་དགུ་འདིས་མྱོང་ངོ།
Dege, PHI, 118
Similarly, with the stainless treasure of jewels lodged within the mind,
Whose nature is to be inconceivable and inexhaustible,
Not being realized, beings continuously experience
The suffering of being destitute in many ways.
When the Clouds Part, Brunnhölzl, 397 [2]
De même, l’esprit recèle le précieux trésor immaculé

De l’essence du réel sans ajout ni retrait. Ne l’ayant pas compris, les êtres subissent constamment Les souffrances de la pauvreté sous maintes formes.

Other English translations

Obermiller (1931) [3]
Similar to this is the treasure contained in the Spirit,
The Immaculate Essence which neither diminishes nor increases;
The living beings that know nothing about it
Constantly experience manifold suffering that is like poverty.
Takasaki (1966) [4]
Similarly, though there is a treasure of immaculate jewel,
The inconceivable, inexhaustible properties in the mind,
The living beings of the world, without knowing it,
Constantly experience the suffering of poverty in various ways.
Fuchs (2000) [5]
Likewise a precious treasure is contained in each being's mind. This is its true state,
which is free from defilement. Nothing is to be added and nothing to be removed.
Nevertheless, since they do not realize this, sentient beings
continuously undergo the manifold sufferings of deprivation.
