The Four Stanzas
The Four Stanzas (Skt. Caturgāthā: Tib. ཚིགས་སུ་བཅད་པ་བཞི་པ།, Wyl. tshigs su bcad pa bzhi pa) consists of six verses in total. It is a praise to the Buddha, to the places associated with his presence, and to stupas. The praise itself comprises the first four verses, hence the text’s title. The last two verses explain the origin of the text and the benefits that accrue from its recitation.[1]
