May sentient beings be separated from karmic debts, and may the unique and extraordinary means of perfecting accumulations, the instructions for removing temporary and ultimate obstacles, be complete. ༈ །། The practice of this is as follows: The water offering should be done according to the text. Nearby, in a wide vessel, place the torma, with a four-tiered Mount Meru on top. In the center, place a glorious torma adorned with a silk parasol. Around it, place one hundred and eight small tormas, marked with hooks and pills. On the left and right, place small skull-shaped vessels made of tsampa, displaying representations of medicine and alcohol. If this is not possible, print one hundred and eight copies. On the first tier, place the inner offering of the five desirable qualities. On the second tier, place the outer offering of the objects of enjoyment. On the third tier, place the tsatsas representing the body, speech, and mind supports. On the fourth tier, in front, place one large body effigy, and printed small effigies. Each of these should be complete in number, with one hundred and eight each. Around the perimeter, place one hundred and eight images of various birds, beasts, wild animals, and domestic animals. Cover it with various silks, cloths, foods, grains, and various precious treasures, as appropriate. In front of it, commonly arrange medicine, alcohol, torma, and a set of objects of enjoyment. If increasing the number, also separately include a water offering for washing. Then, contemplate refuge and bodhicitta, like the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, and the four immeasurables. From oneself as the Dharmakaya, etc., until the door is sealed. If increasing the number, recite: Om Ah Hum. (藏文:ཨོཾ་ཨཱཿཧཱུཾ,梵文天城体:ओम् आः हुं,梵文罗马拟音:oṃ āḥ hūṃ,汉语字面意思:嗡啊吽) Om Mani Padme Hum. (藏文:ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨེ་ཧཱུཾ,梵文天城体:ओम् मणि पद्मे हुं,梵文罗马拟音:oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ,汉语字面意思:嗡嘛呢呗美吽) Twenty-one times, connecting the stream of water. Amrita three times. When the number is complete, such as filling the sky, etc., from the vessel and essence, the palace, etc., recite A A A Bar once. Fill in the deficiencies with the Hundred Syllable Mantra three times. Recite the Heart Sutra three times, expanding the offering without clinging to the three circles of the offerer, the offering, and the object of offering. Finally, also perform demon expulsion. Recite the Bhadracharyapranidhana, etc., and whatever is appropriate, recite the extensive or concise dedication and aspiration prayers, and speak auspicious words. Send the water and effigies to the main stream of a great river that flows into the ocean. Contemplate that the stream of water does not run out, and that the objects of offering never diminish before the guests of the offering. In particular, when sending off the tsatsas, place them one by one on the surface of the water without inverting the head and feet, and contemplate that the appearance of the mind transforms into extremely minute particles, and respectfully for the sake of the nagas offering to the great ocean.
