Homage to all Buddhas! Here, in order to perform the Homa activities that are primarily based on the intention of the Dzogchen Rangjung Gyudé, the complete and self-arisen tantra of instructions, the act of burning the Homa substances and pouring in the offerings is called burning and offering, or offering the objects to be burned into the mouth of the deity, which is respectfully referred to as offering. Through the practice of offering and burning, the ritual of purifying the corpse of the deceased is performed, and the method of liberating from the two obscurations is composed in three parts: preparation, main practice, and conclusion. The first part has three aspects: constructing the hearth, placing the corpse, and preparing the offerings. Constructing the hearth: Generally, there are many old cremation chambers, so it is not described here. If there is a special need, the method of constructing the hearth should be learned elsewhere, distinguishing between superior and inferior. On a fire mat made of cloth or paper, draw four large dots, and from the center, draw three concentric circles, each one finger high, with the outer circles decreasing by half each time. (265) The base of the inner circle is made blue, and four lotus petals are drawn, starting from the east, with the center included. Clockwise, draw a vajra, a jewel, a lotus, and a swastika. In the center of the middle circle, draw a Dharma wheel. The base of the middle circle is red, and eight double-layered bindus are drawn to represent the locations of the eight male and female deities. The base of the outer circle is white, and the symbols of the wrathful deities are drawn. On top of that, draw a circle of the five outer wisdoms, surrounded by threads of five colors, with crescent-shaped vajras marking the four corners. Lay it in the cremation ground. Draw an eight-spoked wheel with a rim on cloth, draw water from a vase, and cover it over the fire mat. Second, placing the corpse: According to the special vase practice described in "Nelong," and other mantras such as the Hundred Syllable Mantra that do not cause confusion, the corpse is thoroughly (266) washed with vase water that has been bathed and blessed, wiped with a cloth, and camphor and other fragrant substances and medicinal herbs are applied to cover the entire body. For the areas around the mouth and other sense organs, write the following on Chinese paper with gold or fragrant ink: ཧཱུྃ་བཛྲ་དྷྲི་ཀ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: हुँ वज्र धृक, Sanskrit Romanization: hūṃ vajra dhṛka, Literal Chinese meaning: Hum, Vajra, Holder). མུཾ་དྷཱ་ཏེ་ཤྭ་རཱི། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: मुँ धातेश्वरी, Sanskrit Romanization: muṃ dhāteśvarī, Literal Chinese meaning: Mum, Realm, Sovereign Mother). ཨོཾ་ཛི་ན་ཛི་ཀ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: ओँ जिन जिक, Sanskrit Romanization: oṃ jina jika, Literal Chinese meaning: Om, Victorious, Victorious). ལཱཾ་དྭེ་ཥ་ར་ཏེ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: लाँ द्वेष रते, Sanskrit Romanization: lāṃ dveṣa rate, Literal Chinese meaning: Lang, Hatred, Delight). སྭཱ་རཏྣ་དྷྲི་ཀ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: स्वा रत्न धृक, Sanskrit Romanization: svā ratna dhṛka, Literal Chinese meaning: Sva, Jewel, Holder). མཱཾ་མོ་ཧ་ར་ཏེ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: माँ मोह रते, Sanskrit Romanization: māṃ moha rate, Literal Chinese meaning: Ma, Ignorance, Delight). ཨཱཾ་ཨ་རོ་ལི་ཀ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: आँ अरोलिक, Sanskrit Romanization: āṃ arolika, Literal Chinese meaning: Ah, Immaculate One). བཱཾ་རཱ་ག་ར་ཏེ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: वाँ राग रते, Sanskrit Romanization: vāṃ rāga rate, Literal Chinese meaning: Vam, Desire, Delight). ཧཱ་པྲཛྙཱ་དྷྲི་ཀ། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: हा प्रज्ञा धृक, Sanskrit Romanization: hā prajñā dhṛka, Literal Chinese meaning: Ha, Wisdom, Holder). ཏཱཾ་བཛྲ་ཏི། (Tibetan, Sanskrit Devanagari: ताँ वज्र ति, Sanskrit Romanization: tāṃ vajra ti, Literal Chinese meaning: Tam, Vajra, Ti). Sarva Durgaté Sarva Papam Bhishodhani Hum Phet for the deceased so-and-so, write it three times without any mistakes, omissions, or additions.

诶！在头部、颈部、心口三个地方涂上蜂蜜，并结金刚拳。以嗡 萨瓦 维德 瓦日拉 阿迪斯塔 嘉纳 萨玛耶 吽 （藏文：ཨོཾ་སརྦ་བིད་བཛྲ་ཨ་དྷིཥྠ་ཛྙཱན་ས་མ་ཡེ་ཧཱུྃ།，梵文天城体：ॐ सर्व विद वज्र अधिष्ठ ज्ञान समय हुं，梵文罗马拟音：oṃ sarva vid vajra adhiṣṭha jñāna samaya hūṃ，汉语字面意思：嗡，一切，知识，金刚，加持，智慧，誓言，吽）加持。如果高兴，在“安乐汇聚”中，对于尸体的所有外皮，都布置上轮回的习气等等。像这样，为了焚烧六处之六道种子字和作为生命所依之脐间轮，以及十二缘起的习气，可以布置代表这些的符号或者任何适当的名称文字。同样，在《净治续》中说：“对尸体念诵咒语后，用最胜之水（267）清洗，用念诵的香气涂抹，用衣服和装饰覆盖，用咒语加持的烟熏，供养鲜花花环等。”因此，对于出家人，用僧衣，对于在家人，用白色或红色的布覆盖。头上系上花环，伴随着各种乐器，放入焚化房并驱逐邪魔。此外，在焚化房的左右两侧设置通风孔，在心脏的位置设置用于供奉焚烧物的孔等，这些都应该在建造时就准备好。由于世间人智慧愚昧，如果将尸体在火化炉中完全伸直，则难以燃烧，因此将额头靠在头部的孔上，垫上基石。将身体稍微弯曲，使心脏的位置直接对着火焰的中心。同样，将双腿伸直，用浸油的布（268）包裹住脚趾。特别是对于患有水肿的人，在下面放置一个装满黑酥油的陶器，加入冰片和白檀香，这样水也能燃烧，这是便于火化的诀窍。第三，焚烧物在右侧，供品在左侧陈设。焚烧物是：虽然在藏地没有阎木的原料，即含有乳液的五种树木，但可以使用合适的桦树、柳树等，要多用十二指长的未剥皮的树枝。上好的酥油，大量的芝麻和芥子。酸奶、未脱壳的大米、未去壳的青稞、小麦、大麦、豆类等，要各自纯净，不掺杂其他杂物。吉祥草、水果等要清洗得非常干净。绸缎、世间食子两个、两根木叉，一切事

E! Apply honey to the three places of the head, neck, and heart, and make the vajra fist. Bless with Oṃ Sarva Vid Vajra Adhiṣṭha Jñāna Samaya Hūṃ (藏文：ཨོཾ་སརྦ་བིད་བཛྲ་ཨ་དྷིཥྠ་ཛྙཱན་ས་མ་ཡེ་ཧཱུྃ།，梵文天城体：ॐ सर्व विद वज्र अधिष्ठ ज्ञान समय हुं，梵文罗马拟音：oṃ sarva vid vajra adhiṣṭha jñāna samaya hūṃ，汉语字面意思：嗡，一切，知识，金刚，加持，智慧，誓言，吽). If desired, in the "Joyful Gathering," on all the outer skin of the corpse, arrange all the imprints of samsara, etc. Like this, in order to burn the six seed syllables of the six realms in the six places, and the imprints of the twelve links of dependent origination on the navel chakra, which is the basis of life, it is good to arrange symbols representing these, or any appropriate name syllables. Similarly, in the Purifying Tantra, it says: "After consecrating the corpse with mantras, wash it with the best water (267), anoint it with the fragrance of recitation, cover it with clothes and ornaments, fumigate it with smoke consecrated with mantras, offer flower garlands, etc." Therefore, for monks, use monastic robes, and for laypeople, cover it with white or red cloth. Tie a garland of flowers on the head, and with various musical instruments, place it in the cremation chamber and drive away evil spirits. Furthermore, ventilation holes should be placed on the left and right sides of the cremation chamber, and holes for offering cremation substances should be prepared in advance during construction at the location of the heart. Because worldly people are foolish in their wisdom, if the corpse is straightened out completely in the cremation oven, it will be difficult to burn. Therefore, place the forehead against the hole in the head and provide a foundation stone. Slightly bend the body so that the heart is directly facing the center of the flame. Similarly, stretch out both legs and wrap the toes with oily cloth (268). Especially for those with edema, place a pottery filled with black butter underneath, with camphor and white sandalwood added, so that the water also burns. This is a trick to facilitate cremation. Third, the cremation substances are arranged on the right, and the offerings on the left. The cremation substances are: Although the raw material of Yam wood, the five trees containing milk, is not available in Tibet, suitable birch, willow, etc., can be used. Use many twelve-finger-long branches without bark. Use good ghee, and a large amount of sesame and mustard seeds. Yogurt, unhulled rice, unhusked barley, wheat, barley, beans, etc., should each be pure and not mixed with other impurities. Kusha grass, fruits, etc., should be washed very cleanly. Silk cloths, two worldly tormas, two wooden forks, all thing
