རྒྱལ་བའི་བཀའ། The Word of the Buddha

སྲིད་གསུམ་མི་རྟག་སྟོན་ཀའི་སྤྲིན་དང་འདྲ། །

འགྲོ་བའི་སྐྱེ་འཆི་གར་ལ་བལྟ་དང་མཚུངས། །
སྐྱེས་བུའི་ཚེ་འགྲོ་ནམ་མཁའི་གློག་འདྲ་སྟེ། །

རི་གཟར་འབབ་ཆུ་བཞིན་དུ་མྱུར་མགྱོགས་འགྲོ །

This existence of ours is as transient as autumn clouds.
To watch the birth and death of beings is like looking at the movement of a dance.
A lifetime is like a flash of lightning in the sky,
Rushing by, like a torrent down a steep mountain.

Buddha Shakyamuni, Lalitavistara Sutra 13.79
