Translation
After
the Sixteenth in the rosary of Karmapa
Before the Seventeenth, (alt. at the
end of the time
of the 16th
and at the beginning of the
time of the
17th)
An incarnation of a demon (lit. "samaya-breaker")
One with the name Na-tha (alt. "spoken
of as a relation")
Will arise in this seat, Sacho.
By the power of the person's perverted
aspirations,
The Karmapa lineage will be near destruction.
At
that time, one having true aspirations
from a previous
life,
A heart emanation of Padmasambhava,
From the Western direction,
One with a necklace of moles, fierce
and wrathful,
Whose mouth speaks wrathful speech,
Having dark maroon colour and eyes
protruding.
This one will subdue the incarnation
of
the samaya breaker,
He will protect Tibet and Kham for
a while.
At that time happiness, like beholding
the sun
In Tibet this will occur, I think.
Without
this, even if karmically virtuous
ones come
The dharma will wane downwards,
As fruit of the negative aspirations
of the demon.
It will be difficult for happiness
to arise.
From
the center the king of the center
will be defiled
The emanation of a demon, an officer
of high rank,
coming from
Kong,
Will disturb the center and destroy
the center's domain.
Many outsiders not existing before,
[Not knowing] what has arisen, will
conceal.
The
beings of the degenerate times, will
be
seduced
by the demon.
Not having faith in Dharma, will become
full of suffering.
Upper, lower and middle, in all three
regions,
Blood of disturbances and arguments
will rain.
From quarrels, disturbances and debates,
There will be no place of peace even
for awhile.
Except for this poor and busy state
There will be no place for riches
and leisure
Except for these very tormented fetters,
There is no liberty.
Three
precious ones, the three roots and
the
Dharma protectors,
It is not that they don't have compassion.
Due to the Karma of beings and the
power of
aspirations of the demon,
A time will arrive of a downward decrease.
At that time the Secret Lineage Dharma,
Will have more power and bring swift
blessings.
