Translation
Ainsi, pour tous les êtres, il n’y a pas de faute à servir le dharma selon le devoir propre à chacun. Même pour ceux qui sont tombés dans la naissance tiryag (le règne animal)—bêtes, oiseaux et autres—ce monde même est tenu pour maître, celui qui montre ce qu’il faut faire et ce qu’il ne faut pas faire.
