All the teachings are for the sake of arising wisdom 

ཡན་ལག་འདི་དག་ཐམས་ཅད་ནི། 

All these branch [practices] were taught 

ཐུབ་པས་ཤེས་རབ་དོན་དུ་གསུངས། 

By the mighty one for the sake of wisdom 

དེ་ཡི་ཕྱིར་ན་སྡུག་བསྔལ་དག། 

Therefore those who wish to pacify suffering 

ཞི་བར་འདོད་པས་ཤེས་རབ་བསྐྱེད། 

Should generate this wisdom.
