And having ascertained oneself as the nature of the secret mandala of Vajrasattva, one should visualize the letter Hūṃ (藏文:ཧཱུྃ།,梵文天城體:हुं,梵文羅馬擬音:hūṃ,漢語字面意思:吽) in the center of the lotus in the heart of all the goddesses. Recite it with the mind or with the vajra speech of great joy. One should meditate with preliminaries such as blessing oneself once a day, until it becomes manifest, and during the time of daily meditation, the mandala will be seen. Then, one should accomplish the superknowledges according to the method spoken in the Condensed Perfection of Wisdom, and thus one will have accomplished the supreme approach. Or, starting from the meditation of the three samādhis, one should meditate on this mandala until it becomes manifestly visible. Then, in the same way, one should accomplish the superknowledges. Or, one should first perform the approach by means of the feast circle and then accomplish the superknowledges. Then, as previously described, in the three-storied house, one should adorn oneself with the ornaments of glorious Vajrasattva, follow the ultimate ritual of taking vows, and complete the great yoga, the palace, and the seats as they are. Tie two bells on both thighs, sit near the center in the posture of a bodhisattva, and make oneself joyful. Likewise, invite all the Tathāgatas, prostrate with limbs, and visualize the supreme king of the mandala and the supreme king of action. Then, seal the great mudrā, utter the letter Hūṃ (藏文:ཧཱུྃ།,梵文天城體:हुं,梵文羅馬擬音:hūṃ,漢語字面意思:吽), and diligently meditate on the secret mandala. Then, in order to depict the secret mandala of all the Tathāgatas, one should think of supplicating oneself. Great passion, great bliss. O Bhagavan, I supplicate you. By the realization of this essence. Quickly accomplish great bliss. With these words. Then rise and prostrate to the feet of all the Tathāgatas. Starting from the words, "I am myself Vajradhara," and so on, recite up to "I am the great vajra lord."
