The Name of the Buddha of Infinite Life,
Whose brilliance outshines the lights of other Buddhas,
Is above relative planes of delusion and enlightenment;
So he is praised as the Buddha of Inconceivable Light.

When we receive this teaching with joyful faith,
The Buddha and we sentient beings are no longer separated;
Because his three modes of acts and ours correspond to each other,
He is also called the Buddha of Unhindered Light.
