Five Verses as an Epilogue
(163) Then the glorious Holder of the Vajra,�Joyful and delighted, with palms pressed together,�Bowing to the Guardian, the Vanquishing Master Surpassing All, The Thusly Gone One, the Fully Enlightened,
(164) Together with the other guardians of many (varied) sorts, Lords of the hidden, Vajrapanis,�Kings of the furious,�Loudly proclaimed these words of praise,
(165) “We rejoice, O Guardian,�Excellent, excellent, well said.�For us, the great (guardian) aim has (now) been fulfilled, The attainment of a perfect, full enlightenment state;
(166) And for the wandering world also, lacking a guardian, Wishing for the fruit of complete liberation,�This excellent and pure pathway mind has been shown, The mode of travel of Illusion’s Net.
(167) This cognitive object indeed of the Buddhas,�Having a profound and extensive broad scope,�The great aim, fulfilling the aims of the wandering world, Has been expounded by the Perfect, Fully Enlightened One.”
