Notes
Ratna is the Sanskrit word for jewel, and ratna is (probably intended to be) the vocative form – ‘O jewel’. The prefix su- means ‘well, good, virtuous’.
Svāhā is an ancient Vedic word that was used to mark the making of oblations to the sacred fire.
For the Tibetan script I have transliterated: rat ne su rat ne because this would be more natural for Tibetan pronunciation.
