if one can take refuge and faith in the Buddha, the World-Honoured One, / one surpasses that by a sixteenth part.
If in one month one fights a thousand times, / and in one fight defeats men a hundredfold,
if one can take refuge and faith in the true Dharma, / one surpasses that by a sixteenth part.
If in one month one fights a thousand times, / and in one fight defeats others a hundredfold,
if one can take refuge and faith in the entire Saṃgha, / one surpasses that by a sixteenth part.
If in one month one fights a thousand times, / and in one fight defeats men a hundredfold,
if one can contemplate the emptiness of the nature of dharmas, / one surpasses that by a sixteenth part."
