Like the son of a garuda being freed from the work of alchemy, be freed. Fifth, if you do not learn, the dharma of appearance-signs will be lost in mental appearance, so there is a need to be freed from memory, thought, movement, and language. For example, be freed like the son of a naga being freed from the fear of a garuda. Sixth, if you do not learn the instruction on severing the connection between body and mind, the fault will be that you become subject to various thoughts, so there is a need to be freed from having view, having meditation, and having action. Its example is like meeting the sky, enjoying the absence of distinctions in the absence of appearance, and arriving at one's own place. That is also like recognizing someone you knew before just by seeing them later. In this way, by recognizing these six dharmas, the three, there will be no doubt or hesitation, and you will definitely become a buddha. If you want to be freed just by seeing the key point, then, like this, by showing the key point of manifest appearance, the five faculties are freed into the pure appearance of whatever is seen in the realm. That is the second content. Now is the third content, showing that by driving the nail of reason into the key point of the faculties and objects, one is freed involuntarily. Therefore, the faculties are five, and the objects are forms and so on, five. The key point is that the words that show that it is grasped by awareness itself are the guru's words, which are like driving in a nail. Just by showing it, you see, and just by seeing it, you realize. Just by realizing it, you obtain the result, and since these three happen simultaneously, it is called arriving at the key point. Also, the time of knowing is when certainty arises all at once just from seeing. Having arisen in that way, you are certain to meet your own ground. In that way, dharma is just existing, and relying on recognizing yourself, you have faith. Relying on that, you have certainty, and relying on these three, you have peace of mind. That key point is extracted from the guru's mouth. That is the third content. Now is the fourth content, showing the characteristic of being freed by the certainty of the result. The limit of the body, uncorrupted by mind, by seeing the key point, is now exhausted and cannot be reversed. Since the mind has no cause, there will definitely be sudden circumstances. Therefore, being freed from the moment when the mind has no cause is the specialty of the faculties. The exhaustion of your own mind disappearing is not established as the nature of anything. In that way, whatever a yogi practices in this exhaustion of dharmata, they will not return to the three realms. Mind's etc.
