Quotations

བདེར་གཤེགས་ལམ་བརྟེན་འགྲོ་བ་འདྲེན་པར་ཆས་གྱུར་ཅིང་། །

སེམས་ཀྱི་སྟོབས་ཆེན་མི་ཡིས་རྙེད་པ་གང་ཡིན་པ། །
ལམ་དེ་ལྷ་དང་ཀླུ་ཡིས་རྙེད་མིན་ལྷ་མིན་དང་། །

མཁའ་ལྡིང་རིག་འཛིན་མི་འམ་ཅི་དང་ལྟོ་འཕྱེས་མིན། །

The path followed and taught by the Buddha in order to guide the world
Is within the reach of human beings with strength of heart,
But cannot be attained by the gods, nagas,
Asuras, garudas, vidyadharas, kinnaras or uragas.
