This is a short statement immediately following the title line of a Tibetan text that consists of the object of homage (a Buddha, Bodhisattva, teacher, or whoever is held in high religious esteem) followed by ཕྱག་འཚལ་. This may be in verse, often of four lines, or prose. The object of homage (usually a deity or lama, but it can also be སྟོང་ཆེན་མོ་, ཕྱག་རྒྱ་ཆེན་པོ་, etc.) is identified as the object itself without any adjectives that may modify it. Example: in Butön's Ship for Launching onto the Ocean of Yoga Tantra, this follows the title line: བླ་མ་དང་དཔལ་རྡོ་རྗེ་སེམས་དཔའ་ལ་ཕྱག་འཚལ་ལོ།.
