[Sānti-pā says this and the next two verses constitute a set of "diamond words” (rdo rje'i tshig, vajrapada), as though the most quotable ones of this Tantra, but scarcely comments on the three. The mother of the Buddhas
is usually called Prajñāpāramitā.] (46) l'dod chags ze sdan gti mug ste! (46) Lust, hatred, and delusion-these are
