བསླབ་གསུམ་རྡོ་རྗེའི་ཁྲི་ལ་རབ་བརྟན་ཞིང༌། ། You, the constant crown on the vajra-throne of the three trainings; ལུང་དང་རྟོགས་པའི་སྣང་བས་ཕྱོགས་ཀུན་ཁྱབ། ། The light of the dharma of scripture and realization which pervades all directions; འགྲོ་ཀུན་དག་པའི་འབྱོར་བས་སྨན་མཛད་པ། ། Through virtuous activities you ripen all beings, པདྨ་ཐེག་མཆོག་བློ་ལྡན་ལ་གསོལ་བ་འདེབས།། །། Pema Thegchog Loden, to you I pray!
