Then, E-BHRUM radiates from the foreheads of the students. By reciting "BHRUM BISHWA BISHUDDHE," visualize a red semi-lunar mansion with a single sky-door. Inside it, by reciting "HUM," gather all the life essence of the students into HUM. By reciting "OM VAJRA HUM KARA HUM PHAT," visualize a blue Vajrakila (HUMKARA) holding a vase of life. At the sky-door of the semi-lunar shape, by reciting "OM VAJRA KRODHA ARYA ACHALA HUM PHAT," visualize the wrathful Achala, dark green, holding a sword and a threatening mudra, guarding the door. With the pride of the Yidam deity, bless with the mantra of Visha Vajra.

By reciting "OM SUMBHANI SUMBHANI HUM," expel them three times. Sixth, blessing as a deity: The Vajra Master visualizes five hero seed-syllables residing on the solar mandala on the five finger joints of the right hand, and five heroine seed-syllables residing on the five finger joints of the left hand.

如是，幻化心髓道次第中说：自身与本尊结合，功德虽小亦能成就。如是说。那么，观修本尊有大利益，若不观修有何过患呢？若舍弃本尊，即使修持其他善法也变得无意义，失去不退转信心的力量，誓言便会衰损，恒常感受三恶道的痛苦，从获得无上菩提的道路上偏离，成为断种姓的处境。《秘密藏续》中说：无信衰损则会毁灭。以及《幻化金刚事业次第》中说：舍弃本尊修善无意义，若舍弃此手印，将生于三恶道，无法获得菩提果，也将断绝无上众生的传承，将处于断种姓的境地。请理解所说的意义。如是说。第十六，会供与供养：陈设盛大的会供，广行会供仪轨。《秘密藏续》中说：此后殊胜之种姓子，王位以及自己的身体，子女妻室财物等，极珍爱及悦意之物供养，以五种圆满的受用供养，即是供养了一切坛城，更何况是近边的坛城，一切罪业都将得以清净。应理解其中的意义。然而在实修中，此时供养少许金钱，在圆满灌顶之后，随力供养即可。此时可以收集花朵，实际献上曼扎，也可以毫不吝惜地供养意幻的身受用，我认为也是可以的。第二，进入坛城的功德：《秘密藏续》中说：进入大乐坛城，通过二或五种方式，具信者进入后，所欲如意皆得圆满。如是说。进入的功德有四种：进入此坛城，具有进入一切坛城的功德。对于初学者来说，即使是进入影像坛城，也与先前进入色究竟天解脱道者具有同等福分。

Thus, in the stages of the Magical Illusion Essence Path, it is said: By uniting oneself with the deity, even small qualities will be accomplished. Thus it is said. Now, if meditating on the deity has great benefits, what are the faults if one does not meditate? If one abandons the yidam deity, even if one practices other virtues, it becomes meaningless, and if the samaya of the power of unwavering faith is weakened, one will constantly experience the suffering of the three lower realms, deviate from the path of attaining unsurpassed enlightenment, and become a state of broken lineage. In the Secret Essence Tantra, it is said: Without faith, decay leads to destruction. And in the Magical Illusion Vajra Karma Sequence, it is said: Abandoning the deity and practicing virtue is meaningless. Whoever abandons this mudra will be born in the three lower realms, will not attain the fruit of enlightenment, will also cut off the lineage of unsurpassed beings, and will remain in a state of broken lineage. Understand the meaning of what is said. Thus it is said. Sixteenth, Tsok Offering and Offering: Arrange a grand tsok offering and perform the tsok ritual extensively. In the Secret Essence Tantra, it is said: Then the supreme son of the lineage, the kingdom and his own body, sons and wives, wealth, offer what is most cherished and pleasing. If you offer with the five perfect enjoyments, you have offered all the mandalas. What need is there to mention the nearby mandala? All faults will be purified. The meaning of this should be understood. However, in practice, at this time, offer a small amount of gold, and after the complete empowerment, offer whatever you can afford. At this time, you can collect flowers and actually offer the mandala, and you can also offer all the mental body enjoyments without hesitation, I think it is also acceptable. Second, the benefits of entering the mandala: In the Secret Essence Tantra, it is said: The mandala of great bliss, through two or five ways, after the faithful enter, desires and wishes are fulfilled equally. Thus it is said. There are four benefits of entering: By entering this mandala, one has the merit of entering all mandalas. For beginners, even if one enters the image mandala, one has the same merit as those who previously entered the path of liberation in Akanishta.

Moreover, merely having faith in this mandala of Vajrasattva's Magical Net, even from previous lives, through the power of practicing the yidam deity, one gains the merit of being regarded as a close son by all Buddhas. Having entered this mandala, if one does not break the vows, one will obtain all common and supreme accomplishments. The first point is from the Magical Vajra Activity Sequence: "Having well entered the Magical Net, those who have gone to the ten directions and four times, have entered all mandalas." Thus it is said. The second point is: "The four Magical Great Bliss mandalas, two or five wrathful deities, having practiced, the faithful who enter, desires, wish-fulfilling, supreme, etc., become equal to what was done before." The third point is from the thirteenth chapter of the Root Tantra: "Whoever becomes devoted to this, all Buddha mandalas, in all directions and times, in all places, by practicing all mandalas without exception, will be regarded as a close son." Thus it is said. The fourth point is from the Vajra Activity Sequence: "The Vajra Holder's lineage is certain, repelling demons and purifying evil destinies, the accumulation of enjoyments is of two kinds, with the eye of wisdom, certainly gathering the face, those and other immeasurable supreme." Thus it is said. The above is the section on teaching the mandala. The mandala has concise, extensive, one, three, five heaps, etc., and the deity faces should be taught accordingly. The second common meaning is empowerment, which has three parts: preparation, main part, and conclusion. The first part is: The disciples, having prostrated to the Lord and the mandala deity, with a respectful attitude, pray: "Glorious Lord of all Buddhas, please consider me, today please clearly bestow upon me the great nectar of empowerment." The Lord says: "All Buddhas arise from the three secret vajras, the three realms all prostrate, bestow the great blessing of empowerment." Having bestowed the blessing, everyone, accompanied by incense and music, circumambulates the mandala, praising the mandala deity assembly in the ten directions and four times, with the mantra and mudra of Be Kā Kra Ma Yaṃ (藏文，梵文天城体，梵文罗马拟音，汉语字面意思), raising the palace and deities, etc., into the sky in front, the Lord
