4.20

They have eliminated without remainder
Every conception of cessation and noncessation. {4}

“They do not see the one with ten strengths as form,
But see the lion of men as the dharmakāya.
Neither do they conceive of attributes
Because they have eliminated all error. {5}

“The qualities are inconceivable, beyond thought.
They have the nature of complete peace.
With this knowledge they thus see
The buddhas as the supreme among humans. {6}

“Just as they know their own conceptions to be,
Thus they direct their understanding of everything.
All phenomena have that nature,
Which is as completely pure as space.⁵³⁹ {7}

“Nothing arises to their conceptual mind.
They know emancipation⁵⁴⁰ from all phenomena.
They are liberated from the three realms
And they have no aspiration for them.⁵⁴¹ {8}

“They are those who see correctly and do not say
Anything to the contrary or any untrue words.
All the words that they speak
Come forth through the power of the jinas. {9}

“They transcend the level of desire,
And the levels of kleśas, form, and formlessness.
Their minds have no attachment to phenomena.
They practice with joy, benefiting beings. {10}

“They have transcended the level of words;
Their knowledge of language is obtained from its nature.
For however long they speak
They know those words have no basis. {11}

“There is no activity of conceptualization;
Incorrect views have completely ceased.
Their understanding is completely assured.
It has a stability like that of space. {12}

“Even though quintillions of māras
Come to disturb their mind,
They overcome all the māras
And do not fall under their power. {13}

“They have rejected the net of the māras.
They have pure, untroubled conduct.
They aspire to the bliss of dhyāna
And know the world to be empty. {14}

“Even though it is said the world is an aggregate,
They know it to be empty,
And that all phenomena are like space,
Without birth and without cessation. {15}

“They have forsaken the self, but not the conduct⁵⁴²
Or listening to the teaching of the one with ten strengths.⁵⁴³
