Preliminaries

Refuge I go for refuge continually to the Sugata Buddhas, in whose minds abide a mental play (re-alization of voidness) actualized (in stages like the waxing of the) stainless moon and infinite methods of pure compassion. I go for refuge continually to the holy Dharma which (as the Noble Truth of the Path is the basis for) total freedom from all misconception and the foundation for the excellence of the holy (Arya Bodhisattva) beings, and which (as the Noble Truth of Cessation) is the very nature (of voidness), the single taste of all phenomena. I go for refuge to the host (of Arya Bodhisattvas) who are masters (over ordinary beings) of discipline, who abide on the (Bodhisattva) stages such as the Joyous One and so forth, are endowed with a glory (of bodhichitta) incited by supreme compassion, and who become purely freed from (the portion of) fetters (to be abandoned on each stage as they progress). I shall generate my mind into a pure bodhichitta adorned with a pure selfless wish, (both) the wishing and (the venturing state that) ripens (from it, by application of which) the in-stincts of all the obstacles can be removed.

Generation of BodhichittaI shall generate my mind into a pure Bodhichitta adorned with a pure selfless wish,Both the wishing and the engaging state

that ripens from it,By application of which the instincts of all obstacles

are removed.

Meditation on the Uncommon Protection Wheel OM SVABHAVA SHUDDHA SARVA DHARMA SVABHAVA SHUDDHO HAM In the sense that the nature, causes and results of all phenomena are all three void of existing

inherently by their own definition, everything becomes void. Within a state of Voidness comes a PAM from which comes a variegated lotus, in the centre of which, from an AH, comes a sun mandala. On top of this, from a yellow BHRUM comes a yellow, ten-spoked wheel revolving quickly clockwise and emanating into the ten directions streams of clouds of blazing vajras.

Inside the centre (of the wheel) is a variegated lotus and moon seat. At each of the tips of the eight spokes in the cardinal and intermediary directions and in the spokes above and below the inside of the centre, just slightly not touching them, are variegated lotus and sun seats.

On top of the central seat I (arise) as Vajradhara, white in color, with three faces – white, black and red – and six arms, the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus and the left with bell, jewel and sword. I am adorned with the thirty-two major marks and eighty minor marks of a Buddha. My consort is white Vajradhatu Ishvari, with three faces – white, black and red – and six arms, the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus and the left with bell, jewel and sword. We embrace each other, father and mother, with our first two arms. Both of us, too, are radiantly

beautiful with mandala-haloes of light. We have jewel ornaments and clothing of various scarves and a nature of the three types of beings. Our three places are marked with the three syllables which are of the nature of the three vajras.

Rays of light from the concentration being at my heart – with us in union as mother and fa-ther – bring forth Akshobhya surrounded by the ten wrathful ones. They enter my mouth, pass through the path of my vajra-organ and melt into the mother’s lotus-organ as eleven drops which become eleven long vowelled HUMs. These completely transform, turning into Akshobhya and the ten wrathful ones.

Akshobhya is black, has three faces – black, white and red – and six arms, – the right hands holding vajra, wheel and lotus, the left with bell, jewel and sword. He is drawn back up to my heart. VAJRADHIRK – he is expelled out from my heart – (multiplied) and emanated into the ten directions. They do the actions of the Buddhas such as turning the wheel of Dharma and so forth. But especially they purify angersome beings of their anger and bring them to the enlightened state of Akshobhya. These emanations condense back into one.

Akshobhya mixes inseparably with his wisdom being and then by entering me, my previous moon seat becomes a sun, on top of which I become Dveshavajra and Vajradhatu Ishvari becomes blue Sparshavajra, with whom I sit in the manner of being in union and having a nature of the three types of beings.

The ten wrathful ones are drawn up to my heart. YAMANTAKRIT! PRAJNANTAKRIT! PAD-MANTAKRIT! VIGHNANTAKRIT! ACHALA! TAKKIRAJA! NILADANDA! MAHABALA! USHNISHACHAKRAVARTI! SUMBHARAJA! They are expelled out from my heart and settle on the lotus and sun seats at the spokes in the cardinal and intermediary directions and above and below [the wheel], with their left legs outstretched and in the pose of demolishing all the evil ones.

Wrathful ActivityHooked by my stare, a second Sumbharaja comes before me to receive my command. OM SUMBHA NISUMBHA HUM, GRIHNA GRIHNA HUM, GRIHNA PAYA GRIHNA PAYA HUM, ANAYA HO, BHAGAVAN VIDYA RAJA HUM PHAT Thus, having been ordered, the vajra in Sumbharaja’s right hand becomes a vajra-hook. With

this hook he seizes by their hearts the principal interferers, namely the ten directional protec-tors. Binding them by their necks with his lasso, he hooks them in, bringing them towards the ten wrathful ones and throws them into triangular-shaped holes beyond them, which had come from long-vowelled HUMs. From Amritakundalini in the North is emanated another Amritakundalini who transforms into ten blazing, fiery daggers having the shape of the wrathful one, Amrita-kundalini on top and below the navel a single-pointed spear. These pierce the heads of the direc-tional protectors and their entourage.

OM GHAGHA GHATAYA GHATAYA, SARVA DUSHTAM PHAT PHAT, KILAYA KILAYA SARVA PAPAM PHAT PHAT, HUM HUM HUM VAJRA KILAYA, VAJRA DHARO AJNE PAYATE SARVA VIGHNANA KAYA VAK CHITTA VAJRA KILAYA HUM HUM HUM PHAT PHAT. Sumbharaja’s vajra-hook hand-implement becomes a blazing, fiery vajra-hammer. He pounds

the crowns of the daggers, above and below, and the interferers are skewered with the daggers

Page 7: Guh Ya Middle 2010 Letter l

straight through from the crown of their heads to the soles of their feet, so that they become un-wavering and unmoving in their body, speech and mind.

The emanated Sumbharaja dissolves into the Sumbharaja below and once again, from the wrathful ones and the daggers, blazing vajra fire and light is emitted in the ten directions, burning and disintegrating all interferers and evil ones of samsara.

Common Protection WheelTAKKI HUM JAH – beyond the wrathful one is an iron vajra fence. TAKKI HUM JAH – beyond this is a fence of water. TAKKI HUM JAH – beyond this is a fence of wind. From HUM on top of the iron fence comes a vajra tent like a stupa. Below the tent and on top

the fence is a vajra canopy. On the ground beneath, from HUM comes a vajra foundation. Out-side, in all the cardinal and intermediary directions, is a network of arrows shooting with the blazing fire of pristine awareness.

On the crown of the deities’ heads on a moon is a white OM, at the throat on a lotus is a red AH, at the heart on a sun is a blue HUM.

OM AH HUM. (3x)

MainPractice

Meditation on VoidnessTo consider phenomena as totally non-existent [= nihilism] is not meditation. Also to consider

there is something truly existent to be meditated upon [= externalism]is not meditation. There-fore since all phenomena in this way are not truly existent [= free of the Three Cycles], meditation should be non-objectifying.

As all phenomena included in the categories of the environment and the beings within are ulti-mately devoid of true existence, everything becomes void, without meditation, what is meditated upon or meditator being objectified into anything truly existent and with everything by nature devoid of being a truly existent cause or result.

Visualization of the [Mandala] ResidenceInstantaneously within a state of voidness comes the complete vajra ground, fence, tent, canopy

and fire mountain. In the centre of this is a white three-sided pyramidal reality source, standing upright with the large side on top and the fine point sticking down at the bottom.

Inside this is a variegated lotus in the centre of which is a HUM YAM HUM. From the grey YAM comes a blue bow-shaped wind mandala and from the two HUMs come two vajras to adorn the two sides. On top of this is a HUM RAM HUM. From the red RAM comes a red triangular fire mandala and from the two HUMs come two vajras to adorn the two sides. On top of this is a HUM BAM HUM. From the white BAM comes a white circular water mandala and from the two HUMs come two vajras to adorn the two sides. On top of this is a HUM LAM HUM. From the yellow LAM comes a yellow square earth mandala and from the two HUMs come two vajras to

Middle-Length Guhyasamaja Sadhana

adorn the two sides. These are of the nature of the four goddess-consorts such as Lochana and so forth.

These four mandalas merge into one and transform into a crossed vajra on top of the centre of which is a white BHRUM. This emits rays of light which are clouds of Buddhas and then trans-forms into a square celestial mansion with four doorways. Its jeweled walls going all around have five layers (in thickness), which going from the outside in are white, yellow, red, green, and blue.

On top, it is adorned with a jeweled molding, a quadruple colonnade, strings, and strands of jewels, hanging pendants and upright dentils. Halfway inside this celestial mansion which has all the standard parts, such as the archways and so forth, is a circular ledge, the outside face of which is encircled with a ring of five-colored lights and the inside of which is encircled with a ring of three-pointed vajras. On top of this are eight pillars supporting vajra beams. Thus, it is beautified. On the roof, it is arrayed with a vajra and precious jewel pinnacle. To the left and right of the cor-ners of the second level are jeweled vases filled with nectar. Thus, it is beautified with eight vases.

This excellent pure mansion with good qualities more especially distinguished than those which are human and divine has its inside clearly visible when looking from the outside and its outside clearly visible when looking from the inside. Within, the floor below and the (ceiling) above are white in the East, yellow in the South, red in the West, green in the North and blue in the centre.

Within there are thirty-one variegated lotus seats, on top of which the main deity and the ten wrathful ones have a sun seat; those in the Eastern direction such as Vairochana have a moon seat; Mamaki has a vajra seat; those in the South except for her are on a jewel seat; those in the West are on a red lotus seat and those in the Northern direction are on a crossed vajra seat.

Visualization of the [Mandala] Residents

Visualization of the Deities Through “Pure Imagination”On these seats, out of pure imagination alone, come the full thirty-two deities all at once.

The Central DeitiesOn the central seat I arise as a blue Vajradhara, with three faces – blue, white and red – and six

arms – the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus and the left with bell, jewel and sword. My hair is tied up in a knot on top of my head and I am adorned with the thirty-two major marks and eighty minor marks of a Buddha.

My motherly consort is blue Sparshavajra, with an Akshobhya adorning the crown of her head. She has three faces – blue, white and red – and six arms, the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus, and the left with a bell, jewel and sword. Her hair is half tied up in a knot. She is extremely voluptuous, smiling and slender, beautiful with such charming features as slanting eyes glancing to the side. In the prime of her youth, she enjoys the pleasures of the five desirable sensory objects.

We embrace each other, father and mother, with our first two arms and we are both adorned with the eight jewel ornaments. We sport a crown, jeweled earrings with an utpala flower above our ears and beautified with a hanging ribbon, a jeweled choker necklace, a pearl long hanging necklace, strands of jewels, bracelets, anklets and a jeweled girdle-belt. On the upper part of our

bodies, we are draped with heavenly garments and on the lower part girded with heavenly silks. Encircled in a mandala-halo of light, I, the father, sit in the warrior-being’s (half vajra) position.

The Four BuddhasIn the East is white Vairochana with an Akshobhya adorning the crown of his head. He has

three faces – white, black and red – and six arms – the right hands holding a wheel, vajra and white lotus, the left with bell, jewel and sword.

In the South is yellow Ratnasambhava with an Akshobhya adorning the crown of his head. He has three faces – yellow, black and white – and six arms – the right hands holding a gem, vajra and wheel, the left with a bell, yellow lotus, and sword.

In the West is red Amitabha with an Akshobhya adorning the crown of his head. He has three faces – red, black and white – and six arms – with his first left hand holding at his hip a bell and red lotus by the stem and his first right with a full bloom lotus at his heart. In his other right hands he holds a vajra and wheel, and in his left a jewel and a sword.

In the North is green Amoghasiddhi with an Akshobhya adorning the crown of his head. He has three faces – green, black and white – and six arms – the right hands holding a sword, crossed vajra, and wheel, the left with a bell, green lotus and a gem.

The Eight GoddessesIn the Southeast is white Lochana. In the Southwest is blue Mamaki. In the Northwest is red

Pandaravasin. In the Northeast is green Tara. On the second level, in the Southeast is white Rupavajra. In the Southwest is yellow Shabdavajra. In the Northwest is red Gandhavajra. In the Northeast is green Rasavajra.

All of these eight goddesses also have their hair half tied up in a knot. They are adorned with the eight jewel ornaments. They sport a crown, jeweled earrings with an utpala flower above their ears and beautified with a hanging ribbon, a jeweled choker necklace, a pearl long hanging neck-lace, strands of jewels, bracelets, anklets, and a jeweled girdle-belt.

On the upper part of their bodies, they are draped with heavenly garments and on the lower part girded with heavenly silks. They are extremely voluptuous, smiling, and slender, beautified with such charming features as slanting eyes glancing to the side.

In the prime of their youth, they enjoy the pleasures of the five desirable sensory objects. En-circled in a mandala-halo of radiant light, each sits on her seat in the vajra-position.

The Eight BodhisattvasOn the seats to the right and left of the eastern doorway, in order, are white Maitreya and Kshit-

igarbha. On the seats to the right and left of the southern doorway, in order, are yellow Vajra-pani and Khagarbha. On the seats to the right and left of the western doorway, in order, are red Lokeshvara and Manjushri. On the seats to the right and left of the northern doorway, in order, are green Sarvanivarana-viskambhini and Samantabhadra.

The Ten Wrathful OnesIn the eastern doorway is black Yamantakrit. In the southern doorway is white Prajnantakrit.

In the western doorway is red Hayagriva. In the northern doorway is black Vighnantakrit. In the

southeast is black Achala. In the southwest is blue Takkiraja. In the northwest is blue Niladanda. In the northeast is blue Mahabala. Above is blue Ushnisha-chakravartin and below is blue Sumb-haraja.

Common QualitiesAll the deities, from Vairochana through Samantabhadra, have jewel ornaments and garments

of various heavenly scarves. Encircled in mandala-haloes of radiant light, they sit in the vajra-position. All the ten wrathful ones are complete with all of the wrathful features such as brown-yellow hair bristling on end and stand with their left legs stretched. All of the deities also, from Lochana through Sumbharaja, have three faces and six arms, and each has the lord of his or her particular Buddha-family crowning his or her head.

EmpowermentFrom the HUM at my heart, light rays are emitted, hooking in all sentient beings and bring-

ing them into the mandala from the four directions without any impedance in the Vajrasattva (manner of) entering. Those who have entered are given empowerment by the light rays from the bodhichittas of the father and mother in union, and achieve the physical and mental bliss of all the Buddhas. They transform into Vajrasattvas and are sent to their own individual Buddha-fields.

Body Mandala Light rays in the form of hooks from the blue HUM in my heart draw forth the deities from

Vairochana through Sumbharaja, set them in their places such as the crown of my head and so forth and they become inseparable in nature from my aggregate of form and so on.

To the crown of my head comes Vairochana; to my throat, Amitabha; to my navel, Ratnasamb-hava; to the energy-channel where my thighs join, Amoghasiddhi. To my navel comes Lochana; to my heart Mamaki; to my throat Pandaravasin; to the crown of my head, Tara.

To my eyes comes Kshitigarbha; to my ears Vajrapani; to my nose Khagarbha; to my tongue Lokeshvara; to my heart Manjushri; to my secret organ Sarvanivarana-viskambhini; to my joints Samantabhadra; and to the crown of my head Maitreya.

To the gateway of my eyes comes Rupavajra; to the gateway of my ears Shabdavajra; to the gateway of my nose Gandhavajra; to the gateway of my tongue Rasavajra and to the gateway of my vajra-organ Sparshavajra.

To my right hand comes Yamantakrit; to my left hand Aparajita; to my mouth Hayagriva; to my vajra-organ Vighnantakrit; to the energy-channel at my right shoulder Achala; to the energy-channel at my left shoulder Takkiraja; to my right knee Niladanda; to my left knee Mahabala; to the crown of my head Ushnisha-chakravartin; and to the soles of my two feet comes Sumbharaja.

Meditation on Taking Death into the Path of DharmakayaThe deities of my body: Vairochana, Lochana, Kshitigarbha, Rupavajra, Maitreya, Yamantakrit,

and Achala dissolve in their turn into clear light. Then Ratnasambhava, Mamaki, Vajrapani, Shabdavajra, Aparajita, and Takkiraja dissolve in

their turn into clear light.

Next Amitabha, Pandaravasin, Khagarbha, Gandhavajra, Hayagriva, and Niladanda dissolve in their turn into clear light.

Then Amoghasiddhi, Tara, Lokeshvara, Rasavajra, Sarvanivarana-viskambini, Sparshavajra, Samantabhadra, Vighnantakrit, and Mahabala dissolve in their turn into clear light.

Then Ushnishachakravartin, then Sumbharaja and then Manjushri dissolve in their turn into clear light.

And then the main figure too dissolves in his turn into clear light. OM SHUNYATA JNANA VAJRA SVABHAVA ATMAKO HAM

Meditation on Taking the Intermediate State into the Path of Sambhogakaya On top of the central seat, from a HUM comes a sun mandala. In the centre of it, from an OM

comes a moon mandala. On top of that, from an AH comes a red, eight-petalled lotus, in the cen-tre of which are an OM AH HUM stacked one atop the other. All of these condense into one and become a complete, full moon mandala. From it, light rays are emitted, collecting back the entire environment and all the beings within it and dissolving them into the moon.

OM DHARMA DHATU [SVABHAVA] ATMAKO HAM The root of all phenomena included in the environment and the beings within it is energy-wind

and mind alone, appearing as a moon, and that is me. On top of the moon, like a bubble coming from water, there comes from the moon a white OM,

a red AH and a blue HUM. From these, light rays are emitted, bringing forth from the ten direc-tions countless members of the five Buddha families together with their entourage. They dissolve into the moon and from the transformation of (what was on) it, there comes a white five-spoked vajra marked with an OM AH HUM.

VAJRA ATMAKO HAM From the transformation of the vajra together with the syllables, I become the First Protector,

white in color, with three faces – white, black and red – and six arms – the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus, the left with a bell, jewel and sword. I am adorned with jewel ornaments and wear garments of various heavenly scarves.

Meditation on Taking Rebirth into the of Nirmanakaya

Meditation of the Nirmanakaya-VajradharaFrom their natural abodes, father and mother Buddhas, in order to tame sentient beings, pro-

duce Akshobhyas from the bodhichitta of their sitting in union. These come to pervade the entire expanse of space. All sentient beings, by receiving their blessings, attain uncontaminated physical and mental bliss.

Then all the Akshobhyas condense into one, inside the celestial mansion, and by my entering into him, I become a blue Vajrasattva Nirmanakaya (Emanation Body), with three faces – blue, white and red, and six arms – the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus, the left with a bell,

Page 13: Guh Ya Middle 2010 Letter l

13

jewel and sword. I am adorned with jewel ornaments and wear garments of various heavenly scarves.

Meditation of the Body as ResidenceThe front, back, right and left sides of my body are the four corners of the mandala. The orifices of my mouth and nose and the pathways for my feces and urine are the four door-

ways. My energy-winds of the five colors upon which ride conceptual thoughts, which are purified

into the five pristine awarenesses, are the five layers of the walls. The consciousness of my tongue is the jeweled molding. My intestines are the strands of jewels and my sinews are the half-strings of jewels. My share of white bodhichitta is the half moons. The consciousness of my eyes is the mirrors. The consciousness of my nose is the flower garlands. The cognitive power of my tongue is the bells. The collected cognitive power of my body becomes the yak-tail fans adorned with strands and

half-strings of jewels. The consciousnesses of my ears and body are the banners and flags situated on the upright den-

tils.My eight limbs, namely my calves, thighs, forearms and upper arms, are the eight pillars. My belly is the vases inside the mandala. The cognitive power of my ears is the vajras on the half-moons in the corners. My purified five aggregates are the five colors of the mandala. The four vital points at my secret organ, navel, heart, and face [= tip of nose] are the four arch-

ways. The cognitive power of my eyes is the wheels on top of them. The consciousness of my mind is the mountain antelopes. The cognitive power of my nose is the banners on the archways and the cognitive power of my

mind is the lotus in the centre. In this way, all the parts of my body become the individual parts of the celestial mansion.

Meditation of the Skandhas as Deities

The SkandhasBetween the crown of my head and my hairline is a white OM, the nature of my aggregate [=

skandha] of form, which transforms into a white Vairochana with an Akshobhya crowning his head.

Between my hair line and my throat is a red AH, the nature of my aggregate of recognition, which transforms into a red Amitabha with an Akshobhya crowning his head.

which transforms into a green Tara with an Amoghasiddhi crowning her head.

The Sense Organs and Sense ObjectsAt my two eyes are THLIMs, the nature of the cognitive power of my eyes, which transform into

white Kshitigarbhas with Vairochanas crowning their heads. At the gateways of my eyes are JAHs, the nature of my body’s sights, which transform into white

Rupavajras with Vairochanas crowning their heads. These fathers and mothers embrace each other with their first two arms. At my ears are OMs, the nature of the cognitive power of my ears, which transform into yellow

Vajrapanis with Ratnasambhavas crowning their heads. At the gateways of my ears are HUMs, the nature of my body’s sounds, which transform into

yellow Shabdavajras with Ratnasambhavas crowning their heads. These fathers and mothers embrace each other with their first two arms. At my nose is an OM, the nature of the cognitive power of my nose, which transforms into a

yellow Khagarbha with a Ratnasambhava crowning his head. At the gateway of my nose is a BAM, the nature of my body’s smells, which transforms into a

red Gandhavajra with an Amitabha crowning her head. This father and mother embrace each other with their first two arms.

Consecration of Body, Speech, and Mind

BodyAt the crown of my head, from an OM, comes a full moon mandala at the centre of which is a

white OM, which emits five-colored rays of light. From these are emitted hosts of Lochanas filling all of space. They instantaneously bring forth a host of Vairochana deities, Vajra-body, filling all of space. In the centre of them is the main Vairochana sitting with Lochana and in front of whom comes a duplicate of myself.

O glorious holder of the body of (all) the Buddhas, I who am meditating on the one who is the inseparability of the three vajras request you to grant me your blessings now for vajra-body. O Buddhas, seated in the ten directions, I who am meditating on the one who is the inseparability of the three vajras request you to grant me your blessings now for vajra-body. The main and encircling Vairochanas having been requested in this way, the hosts of emanated

Lochanas and called-forth Vairochana-deities go into union, preceding this with mutual displays of affection. They experience the bliss of supreme joy. Melting into the nature of white rays of light, they enter me through my gateway of Vairochana in the manner of wisdom beings. Attain-ing wisdom-states, all (the deities) of my body become filled and satisfied. I achieve the power of body.

May I have (a form) like you who are the nature of the body of the Buddhas, which is a body (that can emanate) extensively (in forms) having the five aggregates of all the Buddhas.OM SARVA TATHAGATA KAYA VAJRA SVABHAVA ATMAKO HAM

SpeechAt the centre of my tongue, from an AH comes a red eight-petalled lotus at the centre of which

is a red AH which emits five-colored rays of light. From these are emitted hosts of Pandaravasins filling all of space. They instantaneously bring forth a host of Amitabha-deities, Vajra-speech, fill-ing all of space. In the centre of them is the main Amitabha sitting with Pandaravasin and in front of whom comes a duplicate of myself.

O glorious one who is the Dharma, the pathway of speech, I who am meditating on the one who is the inseparability of the three vajras request you to grant me your blessings now for vajra-speech. O Buddhas seated in the ten directions, I who am meditating on the one who is the insepa-rability of the three vajras request you to grant me your blessings now for vajra-speech. The main and encircling Amitabhas having been requested in this way, the hosts of emanated

Pandaravasins and called-forth Amitabha-deities go into union, preceding this with mutual displays of affection. They experience the bliss of supreme joy. Melting into the nature of red rays of light, they enter me through my tongue in the manner of wisdom beings. Attaining wisdom-states, all (the deities) of my body become filled and satisfied. I achieve the power of speech.

May my words be like the speech of Vajra-Dharma which is definitive words and excellent, and may I be like you, the holder of Dharma.

MindAt the centre of my heart, from a HUM comes a sun mandala at the centre of which is a blue

HUM, which emits five-colored rays of light. From these are emitted hosts of Mamakis filling all of space. They instantaneously bring forth a host of Akshobhya-deities, Vajra-mind, filling all of space. In the centre of them is the main Akshobhya sitting with Mamaki and in front of whom comes a duplicate of myself.

O glorious holder of a Buddha-mind, I who am meditating on the one who is the insepara-bility of the three vajras request you to grant me your blessings now for vajra-mind. O Buddhas seated in the ten directions, I who am meditating on the one who is the insepa-rability of the three vajras request you to grant me your blessings now for vajra-mind. The main and encircling Akshobhyas having been requested in this way, the hosts of emanated

Mamakis and called-forth Akshobhya-deities go into union, preceding this with mutual displays of affection. They experience the bliss of supreme joy. Melting into the nature of black rays of light, they enter me through my heart in the manner of wisdom-beings. Attaining wisdom-states, all (the deities) of my body become filled and satisfied. I achieve the power of mind.

May (my mind) be like you who are the completely pure mind of Samantabhadra, which is the lord of those who (realize) what is secret and is possessed by the (blissful) mind (of your consort), and may I be your equal, O holder of the vajra.

OM SARVA TATHAGATA CHITTA VAJRA SVABHAVA ATMAKO HAM May I become a great Vajradhara with the inseparability of the three vajras of the body, speech, and mind of all the Buddhas.OM SARVA TATHAGATA KAYA VAK CHITTA VAJRA SVABHAVA ATMAKO HAM

Meditation on the Triple Stack Heroic MindsAs a commitment being I am a radiant blue Vajradhara. In my heart on a variegated lotus and

moon-disc is a wisdom-being, red in color, with one face and two arms holding vajra and bell and embracing a wisdom-consort similar to himself. His body is magnificent, secured with the kisses of perfection.

In his heart on a moon-disc seat is a blue five-spoked vajra, inside the centre of which is a blue HUM, a concentration being, ever blazing like a butter lamp, like a great globe of light to elimi-nate the darkness of ignorance.

The Lord of the FamilyI, as the commitment being, have on the crown of my hair a magnificent Vajradhara, white in

color, with one face and two arms, holding vajra and bell, together with Vajradhara Ishvari and se-cured with the kisses of perfection. By the stream of bodhichitta nectar flowing from their union, all (the deities) of my body become satisfied.

Meditation of the [Wisdom] Consort

Generation of the ConsortFrom my heart, a consort of my own Buddha-family emerges. OM SHUNYATA JNANA VAJRA SVABHAVA ATMAKO HAM The consort becomes void. Within a state of Voidness comes a KHAM from which comes a vajra marked with a KHAM.

This transforms into blue Sparshavajra with an Akshobhya adorning the crown of her head. She has three faces –blue, white and red – and six arms – the right hands holding a vajra, wheel and lotus and the left with a bell, jewel, and sword. Her hair is half tied up in a knot. She is beautiful with such charming features as slanting eyes glancing to the side. In the prime of her youth, she enjoys the pleasures of the five desirable sensory objects.

Meditation of Her Skandhas, etc. as DeitiesThe SkandhasAt the crown of her head, from an OM comes a Vairochana; at her throat from an AH an Am-

itabha; at her heart from a HUM an Akshobhya; at her navel from a SVA a Ratnasambhava; and at the energy-channel where her thighs join, from a HA comes an Amoghasiddhi.

The ElementsAt her navel from a LAM comes a Lochana; at her heart from a MAM a Mamaki; at her throat

from a PAM a Pandaravasin, and at the crown of her head from a TAM a Tara. The Sense Organs and Sense Objects At her eyes from JAHs comes Rupavajras embracing Kshitigarbhas; at her ears from HUMs

Shabdhavajras embracing Vajrapanis; at her nose from BAM a Gandhavajra embracing Khagarbha; at her tongue from HOH a Rasavajra embracing Lokeshvara, and at her vagina from a KHAM comes a Sparshavajra embracing Sarvanivarana-viskambhini.

Body LimbsAt her right hand from a HUM comes a Vetali; at her left hand from a HUM an Aparajita; at her

mouth from a HUM a Bhrikuti; at her womb from a HUM an Ekajati; at the energy-channel of her right shoulder from a HUM a Tathagata-matir-vajra; at the energy channel of her left shoul-der from a HUM a Vishva-ratna; at her right knee from a HUM a Vishva-padma; at her left knee from a HUM a Vishva-karma; at the crown of her head from a HUM an Akasha-vajra, and at the soles of her feet from HUMs come Gandhara-devis.

Consecration of the Secret OrgansMy secret organ, from a non-objectifying state becomes a HUM from which comes a blue

five-spoked vajra, with a gem at the tip of the central spoke, marked with a HUM and the hole of which is blocked with a yellow syllable PHAT.

The secret organ of my motherly consort, from a non-objectifying state becomes an AH from

which comes a red eight-petalled lotus, the hole of which is blocked with a yellow syllable PHAT. The insides of the vajra and lotus become filled with five-colored rays of light.

Mantra RecitationFrom the seed-syllable in the heart of each of the deities, a host of the mandala’s deities are

emitted. Having accomplished the purposes of sentient beings, the energy-wind, which had been simultaneous with the mantras, re-enters into the seed-syllable in each one’s heart. Thus is the ac-tion of emitting and re-gathering.

Consecration of Outer and Inner OfferingsOM AH HUM (3x) From a state of voidness come AHs from which come broad and expansive skull-cups, inside of

which from their first syllables and from BHRUM, AM, JAM, KHAM and HUM come the offer-ing substances and the inner offering, transformed into a great ocean of nectar of pristine aware-ness.

Secret and Suchness OfferingAs father and mother sitting in union, we produce joy simultaneous (with voidness). By sitting

in single-minded concentration on the inseparability of great bliss and voidness, (everyone) is pleased with this secret offering and offering of suchness.

DissolutionFrom our place of union as father and mother, light-rays of bodhichitta are emitted, conferring

empowerment to all sentient beings, cleansing them of obstacles, and transforming them into HUMs. These completely fill the expanse of space and transform to become Vajradharas who are brought back by my light rays and dissolve into me.

Conclusion

Torma Offering

Offering the Torma[Two tormas are consecrated like the Inner Offering.]

Invitation of the Guests of the TormaFrom the blue HUM at my heart light-rays emanate in the form of hooks and bring back before

me the supporting Guhyasamaja mandala and its supported deities inside the centre of the ten-spoked protection wheel which also has the ten wrathful ones and on the outside of which are the fifteen directional protectors together with their entourage, the nagas and all sentient beings.

All the worldly ones such as Indra and so forth instantaneously melt into clear light and arise in the bodily form of Guhyasamaja deities together with consorts.

Tongue ConsecrationThe tongues of these guests transform from HUMs into single-spoked vajras with tubes of red

light.
