Samantabhadra Buddha Self-emanating Penetrating Wisdom Pranidhana prayer text
吙！法界轮涅诸幻相，一根二道成二果，觉与无明所变现.
Ah Ho!
Of all phenomenon of the universe, both the samsara and nirvarna, they are arising from the single root of origin, following dichotomize division resulting in 2 manifestations:-Intrinsic awareness and the ignorance (lack of awareness).

现前证得佛陀位.

真如体性本无为，法尔广大不可思，
轮回涅槃名原无，明了法尔即佛陀，
众生无明轮回转.
The true nature of Bhu^ta-tathata is Sunyata (basis of the foundation of existence is voidness in nature).
The truth of Dharma is vast beyond one’s comprehension. Samsara and nirvarna are equally void in name.
Fully comprehend the true nature of dharma is known as a “Buddha”, without comprehend this (with ignorance) are sentient beings, thus wandering in the wheel of samsara.

普愿三界有情众，断惑圆证真实义，

空性圆具本觉智.
My aspiration for the sentient beings of trayo dhātavaḥ (three realms): May all of them sever the ignorance and attain the ultimate truth of dharma.

体性明空无过染，本觉清净原安住.

三界毁坏亦无畏，不著贪欲五浊尘，
自显无别自然智，本净无色无五毒.
Even if the trayo dhātavaḥ is destroyed, none of it is to be feared; No desire and non-attachment to the five material faculties (pañcannaṃ indriyānaṃ avakanti). It is just a manifestation of natural wisdom of intrinsic awareness (nir-vikalpa-jn~a^na), pure in essence, thoughtless, formless and absent of five klesa (poisons).

本体元明未尝迷.
