Its white light is as beautiful  
As the sun in the middle of the sky.”  
  
Chapter 21: The Conclusion  
  
Then the noble goddess Bodhisattvasamuccayā praised the Bhagavat with these verses:  
  
“I pay homage to the Buddha who has pure knowledge,  
Who has the knowledge with eloquence in the pure Dharma,  
Who has the knowledge that is free from the path of bad actions,  
And has the pure knowledge of existence and nonexistence.  
  
“Oh! Oh! The Buddha’s magnificence is infinite!  
Oh! Oh! He is like the ocean and Mount Sumeru!  
Oh! Oh! The Buddha’s activity is infinite!  
He is extremely rare like a fig tree flower!  
  
“In order that he may care for all beings,  
He has taught such a sublime sūtra as this.  
Oh! Oh! The Tathāgata who has compassion,  
The lord of humans, the sun, the Śākya family’s crest—  
  
“The Tathāgata Śākyamuni is the lord of peace;  
He resides in sublime peace in the city of peace;  
His profound samādhi is a peace free of stain.  
He has entered the field of activity of the buddhas, the jinas.  
  
“In that way, the bodies of the disciples are empty;  
The locations of the supreme among humans are empty.  
All of those phenomena are by nature empty,  
But beings do not understand that empty nature.  
  
“I always, constantly think of the Buddha;  
I constantly grieve for the sight of the Jina.  
I am constantly praying and supplicating  
In order to see the sun that is the perfect Buddha.  
  
“I constantly kneel in one narrow spot,  
My mind pained by thirsting for the Jina’s form.  
I weep and call out pitifully for the Guide,  
In extreme thirst for the sight of the Tathāgata.
