It is the fourth empowerment. Because of the indivisibility of the grasping and the grasped, it is called Vajra. Each of the four empowerments is a Vajra. There are three symbolic Vajras: three-pointed, five-pointed, and nine-pointed. The three-pointed is the symbol of body, speech, and mind. The five-pointed is the five wisdoms. The nine-pointed Vajra is the symbol of destroying the nine afflictions of the three realms. There are four material Vajras: round and so on, four aspects. The sow born as an animal, greatly stained by the impurity of ignorance, and the sow born of wisdom, are definitely these four. The vase empowerment is the pig of anger and ignorance. The secret empowerment is the pig of wind and ignorance. The third is the pig of desire, joy, and ignorance. The fourth is the pig of dharmadhatu and ignorance. These are well entrusted to you. I rejoice in everything. The definitive arising of the glorious Shri Heruka, the King of the Tantra of the Garland of Flames, is complete. Translated and revised by the Indian Abbot Gayadhara and the translator Bhikshu Shakya Yeshe. The King of the Tantra of the Garland of Flames.
