Now, following that, I will explain the sublime secret syllable that bestows the result of the spiritual attainment for the practice of the great queens of yoga.

Merely visualizing her, the yoginī grants the best of things. Apply the first syllable and sustain the upward breath.

Taking that which comes at the end of the eight together with ū and the bindu, The yogī moves the downward breath, abandoning the real and unreal. [510]

The observances are not explained: the activities of the garland mantra, Of retention, and of fire offerings are all omitted.

The threefold practice is said to be essentially mantra, appearance, and reality. Through three aspects of wisdom he will not be stained by the faults of existence.

The yogī who constantly meditates on this without interruption Is equal to Vajrasattva and gains accomplishment in a single month.

Meditate upon the first syllable which is the color of Indra. Merged fully with one’s own awareness it is summoned in an instant.

The one possessing the second syllable is imagined and cultivated. One gains power over everything within the whole of the three worlds.

Brahmā, and lord Viṣṇu, so too Indra and the Lord of Desire— Invoked with the wisdom syllable, they are summoned along with their wives.

Endowed with the syllable ā, settled in awakened body, speech, and mind, Perform the threefold union—this is the supreme extraction of the pill.

Possessing the syllable khe is the four-faced one with a red body. Skull cup in hand he is passion itself—this is the supreme extraction of semen.

Possessing the syllable ci is one yellow in color who shines brightly, With the form of a horse’s face—engaging him is the supreme extraction of the liquor.

The one possessing the syllable ra is red in color and exceedingly bright, Has four arms and four faces, and appears in the form of a jackal.

Cultivating this wrathful mind is the supreme extraction of blood. Endowed with the six syllables, they are fixed in the six places.

The practice, the host of ḍākinīs, and the vajra yoginīs are accomplished, [511] The two eyes, the ears, and so too the nose and the mind.

Yogīs take the posture of a sporting lion; While meditating with the movement of breath controlled, it blazes in an instant Throughout Akaniṣṭha, the summit of existence, and in the seven worlds of the animate and inanimate.

All meditate upon it, but they don’t realize it. If everyone realized it, the manifestations of beings would utterly collapse. Therefore this wisdom is secret, obscure, and unwritten.

Because the awakened ones know, they who are immersed in yogic sleep, They concentrate upon the pill and meditate on the singular nature of forms.

They meditate on the essence of the substances arisen from the nine doors, And consume them with a mind free of concepts and devoid of intrinsic nature.

With the thumb and ring finger, place the wish-granting jewel in the mouth, And attain the everlasting spiritual attainment arisen from the nature of the nectar.
