Chapter 3: Ritual Activities

EN
Then, all the blessed tathāgatas made a request using this king of praises:
EN
“Protector, let the maṇḍala be drawn— The fearsome maṇḍala of Yama’s Slayer. It is the lord of all maṇḍalas That eradicates all misdeeds.
EN
The great vajra bearer then issued the rite with the taste of nectar from his own body, speech, and mind:
EN
oṁ āḥ hūṁ |
EN
The vajra holders are pleased By its contact with their vajra tongues. It then enters all the buddhas In their wisdom aspect, their intrinsic form.
EN
“One should then summon them, Draw them in, bind them and master them, And then remain in meditative absorption Using the four mantras of Muḍgara and the rest.
EN
“After visualizing the vajra buffalo, One should visualize the lord of the maṇḍala. Mohavajra should be visualized standing In the center of a moon disk.
EN
“One should imagine the one named Piśuna Standing in the middle of the seven-horsed one. Rāgavajra should be visualized Standing in the center of the sublime disk. Karmavajrin should be visualized, Standing in the center of the karma disk.
EN
“Mohavajra is for pacifying. Accordingly, Piśuna is for enriching, Rāgavajra is for enthralling, And Karmavajra is universal.
EN
“Using the yoga of Karmavajra, One should put human fat in a human skull, Make a wick out of human hair, And collect the soot while in a charnel ground.
EN
“One should visualize Karmavajra In the collyrium and likewise on the collyrium. The collyrium siddhi will result When combined with Karmavajra’s recitation.
EN
“One produces the foot-salve Using saffron and blood. One produces the swift-feet siddhi By applying the practice of Karmavajra.
EN
“If one gathers the five nectars, Combines them with the five meats, And coats them with the three metals, The siddhi is gained through the practice of Karmavajra.
EN
“The magnetic iron sword siddhi, Can be accomplished with the yoga of Karmavajra. While applying the practice of Karmavajra, One can accomplish Karmavajra’s sword.”
