Part 1 - The summary of the essence

Now from the explanation that is the real body of the text, first, briefly, the support of establishing enlightenment is being "well-favored." As for the details, here is the praise:

My friends, this body, the precious essence of freedom and favor,
Is very hard to gain within the six realms of beings,
Thus, as with a blind man who finds a precious treasure,
With the highest joy, may good and benefit be accomplished.

The one who says this, a single person who has crossed over to liberation, is a spiritual friend who has established enightenment. This instruction is given to those with the good fortune of the wish for enlightenment.

In regard to attaining the holy freedoms and favors, it is wonderful for a poor person to attain what is supremely precious. If someone blind attains it, it is even more astonishingly wonderful than that. In praise of beings’ attainment of the free and well favored human body while they are wandering about among the six kinds of beings of samsara, the Sutra Teaching the Freedoms and Favors (dal a’byor bstan pa’i mdo) says:

It is like this: Like a blind person who finds a precious jewel in the earth, sentient beings wandering in samsara, who are blinded by cataracts of ignorance, yet find the things that pertain to humanity, are supremely joyful. Thus you ought to practice the Dharma, which is always excellent.
