"Alas!"   he sighed. "Even though I strongly hold to the Dharma, yet I am hedged   about by selfish demands.

[哎！」他叹道。「纵然我坚毅护持佛法，却仍然受到自私需求的阻碍。

Crimes committed   in the name of religion can never be justified, and in any case, who could   ever harm the vajra body of our Teacher?

Justify: 证明…有理; 为…辩护

以宗教名义犯下的罪行，永远不可能有正当的理由。无论如何，又有谁能伤害到我们导师的金刚身呢？

It is clear that   we should all agree among ourselves."

显然， 我们内部必须达成一致。」

The Buddhists   also consented, and so all the ministers gathered in the presence of the king   and deliberated carefully.

佛教徒们也表示同意，因此所有大臣都在国王跟前集会，审愼商议。

After some time,   the king promised that, provided the Teacher was not harmed, he would be   given gold and sent back to India, while the Lady Tsogyal would be banished   to Lhodrak. All agreed to this.

过了一段时间后， 国王保证，只要答应不伤害导师，就会赐予师父黄金并将他送回印度，而措嘉尊女则会被流放到洛札。众人对此皆表同意。

And so, for the   sake of the ministers, Guru Rinpoche and Yeshe Tsogyal appeared to comply   with the decision.

因此，为了这些大臣们，莲师和伊喜•措嘉表面上表现得像是遵循这个决定，

In reality, however,   they went to the crag   of Zhoto Tidro, to the Great Trysting   Place of the Dakinis, the abode of the Green Lady of the Deadly Bell, a place invulnerable   to every kind of obstacle. And there they engaged in secret practice.

其实他们却去了宙投•提卓的岩崖，到了空行会所，那是亡铃绿母的住所，该处不受任何种类的障难所侵害，于是他们就在那里修持密法。
