ཚེ་འདི་ལ་ཞེན་ན་ཆོས་པ་མིན། །

འཁོར་བ་ལ་ཞེན་ན་ངེས་འབྱུང་མིན། །

རང་དོན་ལ་ཞེན་ན་བྱང་སེམས་མིན། །

འཛིན་པ་བྱུང་ན་ལྟ་བ་མིན། །

If you are attached to this life, you are not a true spiritual practitioner.

If you are attached to saṃsāra, you do not have renunciation.

If you are attached to your own self-interest, you have no bodhicitta.

If there is grasping, you do not have the View.

Mañjuśrī[1]
