17. sangs rgyas rtogs pa brjod pa yi ni dad rnams rab dga’ byed. In light of the Stok Palace version, which reads sangs rgyas rtogs pa brjod pa’i ming ni dad rnams rab dga’ byed, “the name of [this] exemplary tale about a future buddha will delight the faithful,” we have opted to read yi as yis, as Skilling does. Otherwise, an alternative translation could be “She will delight those who have faith in exemplary tales about future buddhas.” This would preserve the subject of byed repeated from previous lines.
