Essence of Dependent Origination dharani 緣起咒(相依緣起精要陀羅尼)
Essence of Dependent Origination dharani (Wyl. rten 'brel snying po) aka Ye Dharma
緣起咒(相依緣起精要陀羅尼)
ye dharmā hetu prabhavā hetun teṣāṃ tathāgato hy avadat teṣāṃ ca yo nirodha evaṃ vādī mahāśramaṇaḥ
This is the statement which Shariputra heard from the monk Ashvajit when asking for a summary of the teachings of the Buddha. Shariputra passed the message onto his close friend Maudgalyayana and together they became followers of the Buddha, and went on to become his foremost disciples.
此為舍利弗詢問馬勝比丘(阿說示長老)有關佛陀法教摘要時,所聽聞到的一段話語。舍利弗將此訊息傳達給好友目犍連,兩人後來一起追隨佛陀,並雙雙成為佛陀的大弟子。堪布那瓊開示,當此段話語作為咒語之時,在最前面加上「嗡」以為吉祥,最末尾加上「梭哈」以為穩固。
Khenpo Ngakchung explains that when it is used as a mantra, oṃ is added at the beginning for auspiciousness and svāhā at the end for the sake of stability.
Translation
"All phenomena arise from causes;
Those causes have been taught by the Tathagata,
And their cessation too has been proclaimed by the Great Shramana."
諸法因所生,如來已曾教此因,諸法之所滅,大沙門亦曾宣說。
Quotation from the sutras
དེ་རྒྱུ་དེ་བཞིན་གཤེགས་པས་གསུངས། །
རྒྱུ་ལ་འགོག་པ་གང་ཡིན་པ། །
諸法從緣起, All dharmas originate from causes.
如來說是因, The Tathagata has taught these causes,
彼法因緣盡, And also that which puts a stop to these causes—
是大沙門說。 This too has been taught by the Great Shramana.
釋迦摩尼佛,緣起偈(緣起陀羅尼精要)

譯註:《四分律》卷33:「時阿濕卑比丘,入羅閱城乞食已,置缽在地。疊僧伽梨。優波提舍念言,此比丘乞食已竟,今正是問義時,我今當問。即往問義:汝為誰師,字誰,學何法?即報言。我師大沙門,是我所尊,我從彼學。優波提舍即復問言:汝師大沙門說何法耶?報言:我年幼稚,出家日淺,未堪廣演其義,今當略說其要。優波提舍言:我唯樂聞為要,不在廣略。阿濕卑言:汝欲知之。如來說因緣生法,亦說因緣滅法。若法所因生,如來說是因,若法所因滅,大沙門亦說此義,此是我師說。時優波提舍聞已。即時諸塵垢盡得法眼淨。」
