A foolish mute number! Even if the mind of renunciation is short, it is also far from the mind of benefiting others, and is exhausted by following the teachings and enduring suffering. The determination of the Lesser Vehicle is small. Regarding the mistakes of one's own and others' actions, this statement of truthfully speaking is made by the great meditator called Dharma Protector, saying, "Please do not send me to the lower realms," in response to the great hope placed on it, said by Rangjung Dorje. In short, existence and non-existence, permanence and annihilation, these are all established by the mind. Going and coming, aspiration and entering, the non-abiding nature of phenomena, and the self-nature of the path truth do not exist, like the vast sky. I prostrate to Longchen Rabjam Dzogchen! Sentient beings are confused because of being born from the unborn. Once it is realized that the moment of arising from confusion is without self-nature, then in the self-nature of the Dharmakaya, which is without cessation, even in samsara, there is no distinction between bondage and liberation. By familiarizing oneself with the two accumulations in solitude, from the concordant cause, the karmic wind slightly ceases, and a genuine experience of view, meditation, and conduct arises, but as long as the activity of the mind is not exhausted, the path truth will always be subject to conditions. Even so, regarding the present experience, there is no mistake, and to be happy and averse to it, and to purify obscurations that are difficult to generate certainty, is the victorious footprint of prolonging the time of meditation. In shamatha and vipashyana, recognizing the object and the subject itself, those who do not distinguish between the object of the six consciousnesses and the root consciousnesses are foolish Dharma speakers, please know this. In short, what need is there to say to those who have meditation experience? Even speculative thinkers can only say enough about the understanding of the view, like a prisoner speaking, but in reality they have not even experienced a dream-like experience. Because hearing is the taste of words, and thinking is the thorn of wisdom and analysis, both are mind, and mind is conditioned, therefore it is completely impossible to approach the peace of non-discrimination. Even those who live in solitude often generate meditation, but it is difficult to abandon the two obscurations of the obscurations to be abandoned by seeing and the obscurations to be abandoned by meditation, and the object is like poison, with a great power to deceive, therefore it is connected to the end of the next life, it is the lifeblood of mindfulness. When what is to be abandoned is completely abandoned, and what is to be realized reaches its culmination, the sign of the direct realization of the view as it is, is the knowledge of all that is, like the rivers of summer, it is the characteristic of the Buddhas. Thus, Zhabdrung Yangtengpa Jigme Palchen's questions regarding the aspect of meditation.

对此,大圆满巴让炯多吉如是说。 关于空行母和具戒女的疑问解答: 佛所说的一切法都包含在显宗和密宗之中。显宗道需要等待无数劫才能解脱,密宗道则可以在一生等时间内解脱。解脱的原因是密宗道方法众多且深奥。这是怎么回事呢?密宗中有显宗道所没有的灌顶和生圆次第等,精通方法的道路迅速而深奥。其中,首先获得灌顶可以消除无数的障碍,是生起地道功德的种子。其中,瓶灌顶的道路是生起次第,秘密灌顶的道路是风咒念诵,智慧灌顶的道路是父母双运等方法,第四句灌顶的道路是修习空性。 其中,修习生起次第可以圆满福德资粮,因此器世界显现为宫殿。观想自己和一切有情都纯粹是天尊的形象,从而遮止平凡的显现和执着。修习圆满次第可以圆满智慧资粮。圆满次第分为有相和无相两种。秘密灌顶和智慧灌顶的运作,即风心融入中脉的方法,所有具有目标指向的都是有相圆满次第。不对自心进行改造和改变,只是不散乱,在无修的状态中,像河流般持续保持觉知,这就是无相圆满次第。生起次第和圆满次第双运的修法:当心未被改造时,本体超越了识别,这就是圆满次第。其清澈的明分显现为天尊的形象,这被称为生起次第。这两者不分离,被称为双运道。对于初学者来说,修学生圆次第双运效果显著。作为其组成部分,可以进行会供、朵玛、火供、自入或接受四种灌顶等。通过生圆次第双运清净地修习轮回的错觉显现,可以在中阴时解脱为报身。获得稳固的禅定后,现在的觉知不做作,不被错觉污染,不与外境混合,向内收摄,保持原始、清澈、广阔、不修饰、不追求、放松、自然的状态,并以正念守护这种状态,这就是第四灌顶的意义,即智慧佛的境界。

In response, Dzogchenpa Rangjung Dorje said: Concerning the doubts of the goddess and the celibate woman: All the teachings spoken by the Buddha are contained within the Sutra and Tantra. On the Sutra path, one must wait countless eons for liberation. On the Tantra path, liberation is attained in one lifetime, etc. The reason for liberation is that the Tantra path has many profound methods. How is this so? In Tantra, there are empowerments, generation stage, completion stage, etc., which are not found in the Sutra path. The path of skillful means is swift and profound. Firstly, by receiving empowerment, immeasurable obscurations are purified. It plants the seeds for the qualities of the grounds and paths to arise. Specifically, the path of the vase empowerment is the generation stage. The path of the secret empowerment is the recitation of wind mantras. The path of wisdom empowerment is the method of union of father and mother, etc. The path of the fourth word empowerment is the meditation on emptiness. By meditating on the generation stage, the accumulation of merit is perfected, and thus the outer world appears as a celestial mansion. By contemplating oneself and all sentient beings as purely divine forms, ordinary appearances and attachments are dispelled. By meditating on the completion stage, the accumulation of wisdom is perfected. The completion stage has two aspects: with signs and without signs. The activity of the secret and wisdom empowerments, the method of dissolving the winds and mind into the central channel, all that has a specific focus is the completion stage with signs. Without altering or manipulating one's mind, simply without distraction, sustaining mindfulness like the flow of a river in a state without meditation, that is the completion stage without signs. The practice of uniting the generation and completion stages: When the mind is not fabricated, its essence transcends identification; that is the completion stage. The clarity of its purity manifests as the form of a deity; that is called the generation stage. These two being inseparable is called the path of union. For beginners, meditating on the union of generation and completion stages is very effective. As a part of it, one can perform tsok, torma offerings, fire pujas, self-entry, or receiving the four empowerments, etc. By purifying the illusory appearances of samsara through the union of generation and completion stages, one is liberated into the Sambhogakaya in the bardo. Having gained stability in the union, the present awareness is unmade, unfabricated, uncorrupted by delusion, unmixed with external objects, drawn inward, original, clear, vast, unadorned, unpursued, relaxed, and naturally maintaining this state with mindfulness. This is the meaning of the fourth empowerment, the wisdom of the Buddha.

这是为了看到法身的容颜。如果习惯了这一点,毫无疑问,在呼吸停止后的第一个中阴阶段就能成佛。这就是大圆满的道路。从《引导文·智慧上师》中所说的区分轮回与涅槃等,不需要每天都做。偶尔,将虚幻显现的顽固执着去除,对善行大有裨益。最好今生解脱,中等在临终时解脱,最差在中阴时解脱的诀窍都要铭记于心。无论何时,都要修生起次第。永远不忘正念是最重要的。如果接受空行母的自入,就要布置坛城,通过一个自前仪轨来生起。 念诵开始时,将自前分开,分开念诵室,进行念诵和接受自入等。平时不需要前生起。供品、供物要清楚地观想为所欲之物。在获得会供等成就时,将朵玛瞬间观想为本尊,然后获得成就。之后融入自身。在火供时,将前生起观想为火和本尊无二无别,然后供养焚烧物。 ༈ 口诀取舍明镜。 诸佛之慈悲, 力量之自性邬金莲师, 种姓之女本然母, 愿您恒时加持心续。 从五种姓中分出之, 根枝无垢智慧母, 具足八功德信施之, 您以财富尤为富裕。 于心中恒时铭刻。 凡是轮回之境, 由处觉体验之差别, 未被痛苦真谛所折磨, 纵有佛陀降临亦不见。 虽是如此,然证悟自心之, 实相之人, 观察自己之自性后, 无自性空性之妙用, 无论显现乐苦善恶, 亦如虚空之中南方的云彩, 虽生亦从心之本性生。 观察此心存在与否, 过去之自明显现本性, 若能无有矫饰地守护, 则一切取舍之分别念, 不会显现为自有自性, 自生自灭无得无失。 那时轮回涅槃诸法, 皆圆满于一念觉性之中。 然而自诩禅定者, 若生起“是空性”之念, 则会将甚深见解误解, 彼即堕入

This is to see the face of the Dharmakaya. If you become accustomed to this, there is no doubt that you will attain enlightenment in the first bardo after the breath ceases. This is the path of Dzogchen. Distinguishing between samsara and nirvana, as explained in the "Guidance Manual of Yeshe Lama," etc., is not necessary every day. Occasionally, removing the stubborn clinging to illusory appearances greatly benefits virtuous practice. It is best to be liberated in this life, moderately at the time of death, and at worst in the bardo. You must keep in mind the key points for liberation. At any time, practice the generation stage. Always remembering mindfulness is the most important. If taking the self-entry of the Dakinis, arrange the mandala and generate it through a single self-front ritual. At the beginning of recitation, separate the self and front, separate the recitation room, and perform recitation and taking self-entry, etc. Usually, the front generation is not necessary. The offerings and desirable objects should be clearly visualized. When obtaining accomplishments such as tsok, instantly visualize the torma as the deity and then obtain the accomplishment. Then dissolve it into yourself. During the fire offering, visualize the front generation as inseparable from fire and deity, and then offer the substances to be burned. ༈ The Mirror of Acceptance and Rejection of Oral Instructions. The compassion of all Buddhas, The self-nature of power, Orgyen Rinpoche, The daughter of the lineage, Rangtsulma, May you always bless my mind stream. Emanating from the five lineages, The root and branches, the wisdom mother free from defects, You who are exceedingly wealthy with the eight qualities of faith and generosity, Always inscribe it in your heart. As long as there is samsara, Due to the difference in the experience of place and awareness, Not tormented by the truth of suffering, Even if a Buddha appears, they will not see. Although it is so, the one who realizes the nature of his own mind, After examining his own nature, The magic of emptiness without inherent existence, Whatever arises, be it happiness, suffering, good, or bad, Like southern clouds from the expanse of the sky, Even if it arises, it arises from the nature of the mind. Examining whether that mind exists or not, The past self-clear, naked nature, If you guard it without fabrication, Then all the discriminating thoughts of grasping, Will not appear as having their own inherent nature, Self-arising, self-liberating, without gain or loss. At that time, all the dharmas of samsara and nirvana, Are perfected in the state of one awareness. However, those who boast of meditation, If the thought arises, "It is emptiness!", Then they will misunderstand the profound view, And fall into
