The continuum ends up being ordinary, lacking the key points of practice. Even just foolish meditation loses the essence. Without genuine renunciation arising from the heart, that great meditator is just accumulating dung on the mountain. For the reckless who don't value karma and its results, hoping to become accomplished is the cause of hell. Those who lack loving-kindness, compassion, and the mind of enlightenment, their empty words are like a kite with a broken string. When the inner winds are not dissolved into the wisdom mind, that subtle skill of channels and winds is a heretical teaching. The vows of secret mantra wander in the marketplace. The yoga of renouncing everything becomes degraded. Furthermore, those who hold onto good views and conduct, there is a danger of accumulating the sin of killing others. Even if you strive in practice day and night, please be cautious of these wrong paths. Focus your mind solely on the Dharma and strive diligently. May your continuum be gentle and your inner and outer selves be good. May you not remain ordinary and be without distraction. The desired fruit will manifest. This is the advice given by Tāranātha to the renunciant Kunga Pelden. Auspiciousness! Advice to the official Lodrö Namkha. Oṃ Svasti. Namo Guru. To the Lama who is the embodiment of the Three Refuges, I offer body, speech, and mind inseparable. I pray in the state of equanimity. Bless the faithful son. Some verses that arose in my mind, although they lack order and beauty, at the request of a faithful disciple, arose spontaneously like this. From the spreading out of the Dharma Sūtras and Tantras, although countless methods of accumulating merit are taught, they are all contained in the method of relying on the Guru. The king of skillful means is devout faith. It is very important to be without hesitation. Those who gossip, praise, and slander, wondering whether this action is good or bad, the mind is full of doubt and hesitation. Intense longing and determination are very important. If the mind is single-pointed, it is determination. Not relying on poverty or wealth, high or low, cultivate faith without hope or fear. It is important to pray constantly. Whether meditating, walking, standing, or lying down, never forget the Guru at any time. The measure of longing is found in this. Whether the experience of realization is good or bad depends on the quality of faith. If faith increases infinitely, there is no freedom to not generate realization. Dharma.

八万四千法虽宣说， 实则心性之确立也。 心明觉不灭，离能所执， 如是如实修，自性自持也。 时时以正念之绳持之， 自己若能自识则自解脱也。 执持心无益，放松任其自流， 将去来之分别，泯灭于法界。 时而收摄而调伏之， 即是趋入离戏之法界。 又时而放松任其自流， 即是证得本初之自性。 总而言之，于无为之瑜伽中， 虽不必收放， 然收放之显现无论何者生起， 若能带入法界则安乐。 于见闻之境，无有可遮止， 所显现一切，皆是明空双运也。 此迁动之分别念之图纹， 若能自识，则为空性觉性。 如镜中显现器情之影像， 然显现之当下即离能所执。 如是觉性之诸般开示， 皆是心离戏之自性也。 于法身唯一之广阔虚空中， 取舍之戏论有何所需？ 无论舍取之显现为何， 若能安住于自解脱，则离舍取。 我行住坐卧或做任何事， 睡眠或清醒之时皆可， 无论心安住或迁动， 愿能于当下自力更生。 心若能自力更生则离能所执， 此无二之觉性，力量不灭。 于轮涅之显现无不显现， 显即解脱之瑜伽，何其安乐！ 无散乱之瑜伽，何其庄严！ 无勤作之瑜伽，何其清净！ 无碍之瑜伽，何其宽广！ 于任何显现皆能转为道用，力量何其大！ 汝等当于此修持之精要而行。 实相如虚空般离戏， 然行为取舍因果甚深。 空性之自光显现为悲悯， 法见行圆满乃成佛之道。 于行为不执着相， 亦不于顽空而空谈， 于自相续要害之处下功夫至关重要。 总的来说，轮回是痛苦的自性， 有为法没有恒常的机会。 特别是死亡不知何时到来， 其他任何都无益，当精进于佛法。 于恶趣感受痛苦之时， 父母与亲

Though eighty-four thousand teachings are spoken, their essence is the settling of the mind itself. The mind, clear awareness, unceasing, free from grasping, if cultivated as it is, self-nature is grasped. Always hold it with the rope of mindfulness, if you recognize yourself, you are self-liberated. Holding the mind is useless, let it flow freely, lose the distinctions of going and coming in the expanse. Sometimes tighten and restrain it, this is going into the expanse of non-elaboration. Again, sometimes loosen and let it go, this is grasping the original self-nature. In general, in the yoga of effortless abiding, there is no need to tighten or loosen, but whatever appearance of tightening or loosening arises, it is good to carry it into the expanse of abiding. There is nothing to reject in the objects of seeing and hearing, whatever appears is the union of clarity and emptiness. This drawing of moving thoughts, if you know its own face, it is empty awareness. In a mirror, the images of the world and beings appear, but as soon as they appear, they are free from grasping. Likewise, all the explanations of awareness, are the self-nature of the mind, free from elaboration. In the vast space of the single Dharmakaya, what need is there for the elaboration of acceptance and rejection? Whatever appearance of abandoning and taking arises, if you remain in self-liberation, you are free from abandoning and taking. Whether I go, stay, or do anything, whether sleeping or awake, whatever arises, whether the mind abides or moves, may I be able to be self-sufficient from that moment on. If the mind is self-sufficient, it is free from grasping, this non-dual awareness, its power is unceasing. There is nothing that does not appear in the appearances of samsara and nirvana, the yoga of arising and liberation is so blissful! The yoga of non-distraction is so majestic! The yoga of no effort is so pure! The yoga of no hindrance is so vast! Whatever arises, the skill of taking it as the path is so great! You should focus on the essence of that practice. Reality is like the sky, free from elaboration, but behavior is profound in accepting and rejecting cause and effect. The self-radiance of emptiness dawns as compassion, the path of the Buddha is the perfection of view, practice, and conduct. Do not be attached to signs in behavior, and do not just talk about empty emptiness, it is important to go to the essential point in your own mindstream. In general, samsara is the nature of suffering, and conditioned things have no chance of permanence. In particular, death is uncertain when it will come, nothing else is of benefit, devote yourself to the Dharma. When experiencing the suffering of the lower realms, parents and relatives

沒有時間可以浪費了！懺悔往昔所造的罪業，並且下定決心今後不再犯，這非常重要。無論是食物、財富還是享樂，所有美好的事物，在生命結束後都將消失無蹤。如果努力行善，無論投生到何處都會感到快樂。現在，請將虔誠視為最主要的方法。觀看自心是修行的核心。無常和悲傷是提醒自己的鞭子。仔細關注業果是行為的精髓。這四件事是佛法的精髓。我祈願這些話能觸動您的心弦。願您像太陽從天空中升起一樣，領悟實相的智慧！ 這是達喇納塔對官員羅哲南喀的忠告。勸誡應將上師視為一切皈依境的總集。

There is no time to waste! It is very important to confess the sins of the past and to resolve not to commit them in the future. Whether it is food, wealth, or enjoyment, all good things will disappear after life ends. If you strive to do good deeds, you will be happy wherever you are reborn. Now, please regard devotion as the most important method. Looking at one's own mind is the core of practice. Impermanence and sorrow are the whips to remind oneself. Paying close attention to the details of karma is the essence of behavior. These four things are the essence of Dharma. I pray that these words will touch your heart. May you realize the wisdom of reality like the sun rising in the sky! This is Tara Natha's advice to the official Lodro Namkha. An exhortation to regard the Lama as the totality of all refuge objects.

。将二资粮圆满后，引领至究竟成佛也是一样。我祈祷。这是虔诚修行的时刻，显现的活生生的上师们，是自心的显现之门，因此在唯一的心性中也是一味一体的。如此知晓后，如此祈祷：嗡（藏文：ཨོཾ，梵文天城体：ओ，梵文罗马拟音：oṃ，汉语字面意思：嗡），显空无别身之金刚，遍布于轮回寂灭一切显现中。啊（藏文：ཨཱཿ，梵文天城体：आ，梵文罗马拟音：āḥ，汉语字面意思：啊），声空无别语之金刚，虽离言说造作，却显现于一切名言语句中。吽（藏文：ཧཱུཾ，梵文天城体：हु，梵文罗马拟音：hūṃ，汉语字面意思：吽），乐空无别意之金刚，虽无勤作，却遍知一切所知。霍（藏文：ཧོཿ，梵文天城体：हो，梵文罗马拟音：hoḥ，汉语字面意思：霍），具足一切功德智慧金刚，虽无变迁，却显现于轮回涅槃一切处。诸佛之遍主四金刚，皈依于一切总集上师您。祈祷于一切总集之正法您。祈请一切总集之僧众您加持。顶礼于一切总集之本尊您。祈请一切总集之护法您护佑。怙主啊，愿我永不离您，愿能成办令您欢喜之事业。具相上师仁波切，以猛烈之悲心祈祷时，为了加持我等一切有情，请降临于此安住。身之相好光明炽盛，化身又化身无量无数，充满虚空之诸佛，勇士空行如云般密集，光芒与光束彩虹交织，具有百万太阳之光辉，佛法之音声如雷鸣般响彻，大乐之体验嗡嗡作响，现在祈请您加持，祈请您于此地加持。通达心意无别之后，愿我与至尊您无二无别。愿我之身体与虚空等同，成办身之事业。语亦周遍一切所知，愿能成办您之所有言教。一切有情之心意成一体，愿能成就意之所有事业。于一切时处，愿能依止您之莲足，愿能如实受持您之言教。乃至未证悟实相，未获得稳固之前，无论您说什么都恭敬奉行，虔诚之心毫无动摇，无论打骂呵斥

Having completed the two accumulations, may I also be led to ultimate Buddhahood. I pray. This is the time to practice devotion, and those lamas who appear vividly are the doorways of my own mind, so in the self-nature of the one mind, they are also of one taste. Knowing this, I pray as follows: Om (Tibetan: ཨོཾ, Sanskrit Devanagari: ओ, Sanskrit Romanization: oṃ, Literal Chinese meaning: Om), the Vajra of Body, inseparable from appearance and emptiness, dwells pervading all appearances of samsara and nirvana. Ah (Tibetan: ཨཱཿ, Sanskrit Devanagari: आ, Sanskrit Romanization: āḥ, Literal Chinese meaning: Ah), the Vajra of Speech, inseparable from sound and emptiness, although free from expression and effort, appears in all names and words. Hum (Tibetan: ཧཱུཾ, Sanskrit Devanagari: हु, Sanskrit Romanization: hūṃ, Literal Chinese meaning: Hum), the Vajra of Mind, inseparable from bliss and emptiness, although without effort, knows all knowable things. Hoh (Tibetan: ཧོཿ, Sanskrit Devanagari: हो, Sanskrit Romanization: hoḥ, Literal Chinese meaning: Hoh), the Vajra of Wisdom, possessing all qualities, although unchanging, appears in all of samsara and nirvana. The four Vajras, the all-pervading lords of all Buddhas, I take refuge in you, the all-encompassing Lama. I pray to you, the all-encompassing sacred Dharma. I request you, the all-encompassing Sangha, to bless me. I prostrate to you, the all-encompassing Yidam. I request you, the all-encompassing Dharma Protectors, to protect me. Protector, may I never be separated from you, and may I accomplish the activities that please you. Precious Lama with the signs, when I pray with intense longing, in order to bless all sentient beings like myself, please come and abide here. The signs and examples of the body blaze with light, emanations and further emanations are countless, Buddhas filling the sky, heroes and dakinis gather like clouds, light and rays of light intermingle like rainbows, possessing the splendor of a million suns, the sound of Dharma resounds like thunder, the experience of great bliss buzzes, now I pray for your blessing, I pray for your blessing in this very place. Having realized the inseparability of mind and wisdom, may I be inseparable from you, the venerable one. May my body become equal to the sky, may I accomplish the activities of the body. May my speech pervade all knowable things, may I accomplish all your teachings without exception. With the minds of all sentient beings becoming one taste, may I accomplish all the activities of the mind. At all times and in all circumstances, may I rely on your lotus feet, and may I uphold your teachings as they are. Until I realize the true nature and attain stability, whatever you say, I will respectfully follow, with unwavering devotion, and whatever beating, scolding, or reprimanding you may do
