Quotations: The Torch of the Three Methods
ekārthatve ’py asaṃmohād bahūpāyād aduṣkarāt |
tīkṣṇendriyādhikārāc ca mantraśāstraṃ viśiṣyate ||[1]
དོན་གཅིག་ན་ཡང་མ་རྨོངས་དང༌། །
ཐབས་མང་དཀའ་བ་མེད་པ་དང༌། །
དབང་པོ་རྣོན་པོའི་དབང་བྱས་པས། །
It has the same goal but is free from all confusion,
It is rich in methods and without difficulties.
It is for those with sharp faculties.
The mantra vehicle is especially sublime.
