Notes

  1. There are different versions of this line. Some editions have Tib. དང་ dang, but according to the Gangtok edition of Jamyang Khyentse's collected works, the line ends in Tib. ཞབས་ shyap (Wyl. zhabs). Alak Zenkar Rinpoche has confirmed that this is the correct version.
  2. Different versions of the mantra are given in different editions of the text. Some version omit the syllable pala (Wyl. pha la), although this appears to be a mistake as the syllable does appear in the commentary. In addition, the commentary mentions the syllable hung only once, when it appears at the end of the mantra.
