The three channels controlled by the three forces of red wind, each of which produces seventy-two channels, and each of those produces a thousand channels, for a total of seventy-two thousand. From these channels, all the way to the ends of the hairs, three hundred million channels, including the halves, are produced. Furthermore, in this tantra, some different channels are taught in terms of the categories of thirty-two channels. Such as the thirty-two petals of the secret place, plus the four channels of the crown chakra, for a total of thirty-six channels. As stated in the Chakrasamvara Root Tantra and the Vajramala, on top of the twenty-four channels such as the indivisible mother, add the eight channels of the heart, and the four of the crown, for thirty-six. There are also the ten channels of the five objects and the five senses, located above the throat. In the heart, there are the channels of the eight periods. In the navel, there are the channels of the twelve time junctions. In the navel of the six chakras, there are six knots, that is, thirty-six channels. Or, there are the channels of the thirty-six aggregates and elements. Each of the six aggregates is divided into six elements, also thirty-six channels. On top of all these channels, add the all-pervading wisdom channel, the Avadhūtī (Tibetan: ཨ་ཝ་དྷཱུ་ཏཱི་, Sanskrit Devanagari: अवधूती, Sanskrit Romanization: Avadhūtī, Literal Chinese meaning: Defiled One), for a total of thirty-seven channels. These channels also gather with the purity of the six lineages, above the navel there are the three channels of rasa, rasana, and madhyama. Below the navel, there are the three channels of excrement, urine, and semen. These six channels control all the subtle channels. If the dhūtī channel and the semen channel are combined into one, then the purity of the five lineages becomes five channels. If the upper and lower parts of the other two are also combined into one, then they also converge into three channels, so when making classifications related to the entering and returning of samsara and nirvana, one cannot have fewer than this number. When establishing the classification of ultimate nirvana, all the channels converge into the single Avadhūtī channel. As it says in the Glorious Ocean of Dakinis: "Thus, of all the central channels, it exists as the all-pervading." From the perspective of the channels of the Kalachakra, in the crown chakra there are the four channels of the time divisions, in the forehead there are fifteen dates and the wisdom part, that is, sixteen channels. In the throat there are twenty-eight constellations, and the wisdom part four staffs, that is, thirty-two channels. In the heart there are eight periods or eight planets. In the navel there are twelve time junctions, and sixty hours plus four wisdom empty channels. In the secret place there are two sets of white and red increasing and decreasing sixteen dates, and sixteen joys.

上行脉和下行脉的分类有三十二种。一般来说,身体上存在着具有微尘性质的脉,这主要是轮回的规律。这些脉的真实本性是智慧脉,以自明脉的形式显现,以遍布普通脉的方式存在。而且,因为是所有形式,所以不同续部所说的脉的分类不同,比如佛陀所说的来源,或者所有不同的分类都不矛盾。智慧脉加持后,瑜伽士的心对任何事物产生信任,普通的脉也会像那样发挥作用。因为智慧脉是所有形式,而世俗的脉也随之而行。但是,由于续部高低的次第,方便的诀窍有深浅的差别,这也不矛盾。因为不了解这个要点,所以产生了认为矛盾的邪见,导致了各种各样的争论。这一点将在其他地方详细解释。第二,关于风的

The classification of the ascending and descending channels is thirty-two. Generally, the channels with the nature of minute particles exist in the body, which is mainly the law of samsara. The true nature of these channels is the wisdom channel, which appears in the form of self-aware channels and exists in a way that pervades ordinary channels. Moreover, because it is all forms, the classifications of channels described in different tantras are different, such as the source of the Buddha's words, or all the different classifications are not contradictory. After the wisdom channel is blessed, the yogi's mind trusts anything, and ordinary channels will also function in that way. Because the wisdom channel is all forms, and the conventional channels also follow it. However, due to the order of superiority and inferiority of the tantras, there are differences in the depth of the expedient instructions, which is also not contradictory. Because this point is not understood, wrong views that consider it contradictory arise, leading to various arguments. This will be explained in detail elsewhere. Second, regarding the classification of winds: the basis for the arising of all winds is the true nature, which is the sudden impurity of the great wisdom life wind, the nature of the alaya consciousness, which is unwavering in the face of objects. From this arises the nature of the letter A (Tibetan: ཨ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: अ, Sanskrit Romanization: a, Literal meaning: A), the life wind space element; the letter E (Tibetan: ཨེ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: ए, Sanskrit Romanization: e, Literal meaning: E) the co-existing wind air element; the letter Ṛ (Tibetan: རྀ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: ऋ, Sanskrit Romanization: ṛ, Literal meaning: Ṛ) the upward-moving wind fire element; the letter U (Tibetan: ཨུ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: उ, Sanskrit Romanization: u, Literal meaning: U) the pervasive wind water element; the letter Ḷ (Tibetan: ལྀ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: ऌ, Sanskrit Romanization: ḷ, Literal meaning: Ḷ) the downward-cleansing wind earth element. Or, the letter A (Tibetan: ཨ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: अ, Sanskrit Romanization: a, Literal meaning: A) dragon wind wisdom element; the turtle letter E (Tibetan: ཨེ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: ए, Sanskrit Romanization: e, Literal meaning: E) wind element; the lizard letter Ar (Tibetan: ཨར་, Sanskrit Devanagari: अर्, Sanskrit Romanization: ar, Literal meaning: Ar) fire element; the god-given letter O (Tibetan: ཨོ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: ओ, Sanskrit Romanization: o, Literal meaning: O) water element; the wealth god letter Al (Tibetan: ཨལ་, Sanskrit Devanagari: अल्, Sanskrit Romanization: al, Literal meaning: Al) earth element. Thus, there are ten winds. Also, there are cases where the downward-cleansing wind is combined with wisdom and the dragon earth element, which is due to the connection of wisdom arising from the earth. Where do these winds reside? The life wind resides in the central channel above the navel and the upper channel of the heart, which maintains life, clings to the self, and generates various discriminations. If it is disordered and problems occur, it will lead to memory loss, fainting, madness, and even death. The downward-cleansing wind resides in the central channel below the navel and the heart.

位于阴茎下方的脉中,其作用是排泄大小便和精液。如果功能失调,会导致寒症和下身疾病。平住脉位于心脏前方的鼻脉。它与胃的火热一同作用,将食物在胃中分解为精华和糟粕。精华滋养身体,糟粕则被排出体外。如果功能失调,会导致胃病。上行脉位于火焰尽头的脉络中,负责言语表达、品尝味道、吞咽食物、呕吐等吸引和引导的功能。如果功能失调,会导致发热和上身疾病。遍行脉位于右侧的黄白色脉络中,遍布全身。它与罗脉的力量相结合,位于关节处时,负责肢体的伸展和弯曲。如果功能失调,会导致瘫痪等肢体疾病。龙脉位于无实的脉王中,产生眼识,引起腹胀和嗳气等症状。龟脉位于背部的脉王中,负责肢体的伸展和弯曲。胆脉位于风尽头的脉络中,负责愤怒、散乱和疯狂等行为。施与脉位于左侧的伊达脉中,负责打哈欠和引发风病的行为。财施胜王脉位于姿势脉中。这是地界中最粗大的部分,即使与生命分离,也不会破坏身体的结构,而是长时间存在。这十条脉是根据风的产生位置来划分的。一般来说,所有的脉轮中都始终流动着十种风的成分。其中,脐轮主要受到地界的加持,心轮受到水的加持,喉轮受到火的加持,前额受到风的加持,头顶受到空界的加持,密处受到六界或智慧的加持。因此,这些位置的风的作用方式与上述略有不同,应有所了解。摄命等五种是根本五风,龙等五种是支分五风。这些风的名称差异在于,有些因其快速流动等特性而得名,有些因其产生眼识等感官意识,有些因其位于五脏而发挥相应的作用。

It resides in the vessels originating from the underside of the penis, performing the function of excreting urine, feces, and semen. When it malfunctions, it causes coldness and diseases of the lower body. The Equal-Dwelling resides in the nasal vessel in front of the heart. It works together with the heat of the stomach, separating the essence and waste of food in the stomach. The essence nourishes the body, and the waste is expelled downwards. When it malfunctions, it causes stomach diseases. The Upward-Moving resides in the vessel at the end of the fire, performing the functions of speech, tasting, swallowing food, vomiting, and other acts of attraction and guidance. When it malfunctions, it causes fever and diseases of the upper body. The Pervading resides in the yellowish-white vessel on the right side, pervading the entire body. It combines with the power of the Roma vessel, and when located in the joints, it performs the function of extending and contracting the limbs. When it malfunctions, it causes paralysis and other limb diseases. The Naga resides in the vessel king of the unreal, generating eye consciousness and causing bloating and belching. The Turtle resides in the vessel king of the back, performing the function of extending and contracting the limbs. The Gall resides in the vessel at the end of the wind, performing actions such as anger, distraction, and madness. The Gift-Giving resides in the Ida vessel on the left side, performing the actions of yawning and causing wind diseases. The Wealth-Giving Victorious King resides in the posture vessel. This is the coarsest part of the earth element, and even when separated from life, it does not destroy the body's structure but remains for a long time. These ten vessels are divided according to the place of origin of the winds. In general, all the chakras constantly circulate with a complete component of the ten winds. Among them, the navel chakra is mainly blessed by the earth element, the heart chakra by water, the throat chakra by fire, the forehead by wind, the crown by space, and the secret place by the six elements or wisdom. Therefore, the way the winds in these locations function is slightly different from what was described above, and should be understood. The five, such as Life-Holding, are the five root winds, and the five, such as Naga, are the five branch winds. The differences in the names of these winds are that some are named for their characteristics such as rapid flow, some for generating sensory consciousness such as eye consciousness, and some for residing in the five internal organs and performing their respective functions.

等等也如其他场合所说,在此也应酌情理解。这些气如何运行的方式有两种:向内运行的方式和向外运行的方式。第一,向内运行的方式是:顶髻是空性的自性,因此虽然是不显现的方式,但以四个时段的顺序下降;在前额,十四个月亮节段,前后节段的末端各有空性,以十六的顺序下降;在喉咙,二十八星宿和四个木棍,以星宿时辰一千六百八十的顺序下降;在心间,以八曜的顺序;在脐部的十二脉瓣上,以十二时运的顺序;各自的中央,从前方是虚空和智慧,前方是风,右方是火,左方是水,后方是地,这样五个五个坛城下降,完全环绕,以六十坛城的顺序下降。因此,脐部外围的六十四脉的气中,六个与它们的作用相同,而降临到间隙的四个空脉上的气,与所有这些混合,应知是中脉呼吸的份额。在秘密轮中,所有这些的部分加在一起下降,从内圈降临六界,中圈降临十气或十坛城,外圈降临十六明点移动,或内外降临十六个吉日和十六喜悦的顺序。第二,向外运行的方式是:气受左右二者的支配,在左右鼻孔中降临,右鼻孔随顺柔玛的规律,以地水火风空的顺序降临,在每个大转移中,也以收摄的顺序产生,时运也与牛等相同的六个时运结合;左鼻孔随顺强玛的规律,以空风火水地的区分,在每个大转移中,也以产生的顺序降临,时运也与羊等不相同的六个结合。其中,每个坛城是小转移,即三百六十次呼吸。像这样五个五个加起来是一个大转移和一个时运,即一千八百次呼吸。这十二个
