Let my heart turn to practice Let practice become a path Let this path dissolve confusion Let confusion become wisdom –Gampopa

Ken McLeod. I really, really prefer it to the others. He doesn’t translate literally, he translates with the intention to evoke the same experience in English readers as is evoked by reading the Tibetan. He uses this principle to guide all his teaching and translation efforts.
Yeah I’m a big fan of Ken, he’s an excellent translator and teacher IMO, but that last line - for me personally - seems to miss to notion some aspect of confusion being the display of wisdom. But I have utmost respect for translators, and divergent interpretation.

Experiencing confusion as the play of jnana....amazing. Four Dharmas of Gampopa is a very special supplication. Deep.

What translation of the lines do you use?
