9. Translation of colophon A concise essence of offerings, compiled by me, a person lacking in wisdom. I confess all errors and omissions to all the masters, and I pray for the forgiveness of the protective deities. May whatever merit is generated from this benefit all sentient beings. It is virtuous. It is good. It is auspicious. He he.
