At Ṛṣipatana, the first turning of the wheel of Dharma of the four noble truths was given to the five excellent monks; in places like Rājagṛha, the intermediate turning of the wheel of Dharma of no characteristics was given to countless beings, including gods and humans, who were the retinue of the saṅgha of the Greater and Lesser Vehicles; and in various places like Padmāvatī, the final turning of the wheel of Dharma of definitive meaning was given. Thus, the three turnings were given. Furthermore, in Rājagṛha, the wheel of Dharma of the ten virtues was turned for gods and humans; in Magadha, the wheel of Dharma of the twelve links of dependent origination was turned for the solitary realizer. Thus, countless teachings were taught in ways that manifested as play that suited the inclinations and capacities of the beings to be tamed. In essence, all of these are included within the three wheels of Dharma. Among these, the vehicles of gods, humans, śrāvakas, and pratyekabuddhas are called common vehicles, and the Mahāyāna is called the extraordinary vehicle. The latter has two aspects: the causal vehicle and the resultant vehicle. The teachings of the treatises that establish the views of the Madhyamaka and Yogācāra schools are the causal pāramitā vehicle, and the teachings that abide in the outer and inner tantras are called the resultant secret mantra vehicle. Although the ultimate result of the Mahāyāna sūtra and tantra vehicles is the same—the attainment of buddhahood—due to the difference in the profundity of the paths, the difference in the swiftness with which the result is manifested is extremely great. Therefore, they are referred to as the causal and resultant vehicles. In mantra, among the three divisions of outer action tantra, performance tantra, and yoga tantra, in action tantra, the six general tantras, such as the Root of All Vidyā Mantras, the Dhvajāgrakeyūra Tantra, and the specific action tantras, such as the cycles of the Three Family Lords, were taught by the Lord himself appearing in the forms of the Three Family Bodhisattvas, etc., to the lords of the gods, etc., in common places like Nairañjanā and in special places like Campaka. The performance tantras, such as the Mahāvairocanābhisambodhi Tantra, are taught in a manner that is similar in content to the previous tantras and the yoga tantras. In yoga tantra, there are three divisions: yoga, mahāyoga, and atiyoga or yogottara. The first was taught by the all-knowing Vairocana in the form of the Vajradhara, etc., to Vajrapāṇi, etc., in common places like the Trayastriṃśa heaven and in special places like Akanishtha. The Yoga Great Tantra, the three hundred chapters, and the Body.

对大幻化网等四续部的眷属本尊和菩萨们宣说,这些的分类在新旧密咒的观点中是共同存在的,没有太大的不同之处。大瑜伽玛哈瑜伽的续部主要是十八部大怛特罗,虽然引用方式有些不同,但按照法王龙钦饶降的观点,身之身续为象王猛力,身之语续为象王入水,身之意续为佛陀合修,此为身续三部。语之身续为叠山,语之语续为莲花自在,语之意续为月密明点,此为语续三部。意之身续为顶端汇聚,意之语续为一出多,意之意续为秘密汇聚,此为意续三部。功德之身续为明灯燃烧,功德之语续为甘露萨玛雅十万部,功德之意续为吉祥胜初,此为功德续三部。事业之身续为白妙吉祥鬘,事业之语续为母续教言,事业之意续为答玛拉十万部,此为事业续三部。共同之身续为方便索,共同之语续为萨玛雅陈设,共同之意续为秘密幻化网等十八部。这些的根本是《秘密藏续》,是唯一能确定为续部之王,后来经过整理,对超越常人的有缘国王匝(藏文:ཛཿ)宣说,并依次流传下来。总而言之,玛哈瑜伽的续部是导师化现为大吉祥或毗卢遮那等,对请问者金刚持和有缘国王匝等殊胜眷属宣说。归纳起来,可分为方便和智慧二续。对于无上瑜伽续部,有圆满阿努瑜伽之乘和圆满大圆满阿底瑜伽之乘两种。前者是在女王布日的园林中,导师化现为大普贤或金刚萨埵,由楞伽的领主请问,归纳为四部经和五部经后赐予教诲。阿底瑜伽是在国王布日的园林和匝玛布日

It was spoken to the retinue deities and bodhisattvas of the four great tantras, such as the Mahayoga Tantra. The classifications of these are common to both the new and old secret mantras, and there are no great differences. The tantras of the Great Yoga Mahayoga are mainly the eighteen great tantras, although there are some differences in the way they are cited. However, according to the view of the Dharma King Longchen Rabjam, the body lineage of the body is the Elephant King's Might, the speech lineage of the body is the Elephant King Entering the Water, and the mind lineage of the body is the Buddha's Union, these are the three body lineages. The body lineage of speech is the Stacked Mountain, the speech lineage of speech is the Lotus Empowerment, and the mind lineage of speech is the Moon Secret Bindu, these are the three speech lineages. The body lineage of mind is the Summit Assembly, the speech lineage of mind is One Emanating Many, and the mind lineage of mind is the Secret Assembly, these are the three mind lineages. The body lineage of merit is the Burning Lamp, the speech lineage of merit is the Nectar Samaya Hundred Thousand Sections, and the mind lineage of merit is the Glorious Supreme First, these are the three merit lineages. The body lineage of activity is the White Auspicious Garland, the speech lineage of activity is the Mother Tantra Teachings, and the mind lineage of activity is the Tamala Hundred Thousand Sections, these are the three activity lineages. The common body lineage is the Method Lasso, the common speech lineage is the Samaya Arrangement, and the common mind lineage is the Secret Illusion Network and the eighteen. The root of all these is the Secret Essence Tantra, which is the king of tantras that can only be determined, and after being sorted out, it was spoken to the fortunate King Ja (Tibetan: ཛཿ), who was beyond ordinary people, and passed down in succession. In short, the tantras of Mahayoga are the teacher himself manifesting as the Great Glorious One or Vairochana, etc., and speaking to the questioner Vajradhara and the fortunate King Ja, etc., the supreme assembly of retinue. In summary, they can be divided into the two tantras of method and wisdom. For the tantra of Supreme Yoga, there are two vehicles: the complete Anuyoga and the complete Great Perfection Atiyoga. The former was in the Queen Puri's Garden, where the teacher manifested as the Great Samantabhadra or Vajrasattva, and was asked by the Lord of Lanka, and after being summarized into four sutras and five sutras, he bestowed the teachings. Atiyoga is in the King Puri's Garden and Zama Puri

在吉祥的森林中,导师化身为普贤王如来,为那些并非他者的眷属们宣说了安住于自身之中的大普贤的续部等大圆满心髓之类。嘛哈、阿努、阿底这三者是宁玛派独有的特点,在新密咒中并不为人所知,并且它们拥有着最为卓越的要点。如此宣说的无量法门,对于居住在世间的人类以及声闻、缘觉、菩萨等种姓者,释迦能仁的真身在印度等地宣说了因明之乘。对于诸天以及观音、文殊、金刚手等大菩萨,以普光明照的形象宣说了外续三部。对于五部如来及其眷属,化身为普贤而宣说了内续瑜伽三部,这些都是为了适应所化众生不同的根器。在 धनकोष(藏文,梵文天城体,Dhanakośa,财库),清凉林,国王的住所,火焰山等共同的处所,以及密严刹土,母续虚空,法界源,大解脱的无量宫等特殊的处所,以共同和特殊的导师之身显现,为上、中、下等的眷属所化,转动因果之法轮,安住于神变之中。实际上,是一位导师以各种应化之身和智慧事业显现,为了调伏不同的众生,以各种导师的形象示现,开启了无数的法门,广为宣说了八万四千法蕴,简略宣说了十二部经,再简略宣说了九乘次第等,虽然拥有无量的分类,但实际上可以归纳为因果二乘。这些教言,有的是从口中宣说,有的是加持,有的是随许,从说法方式上可以分为三种。如此宣说的因果之乘的教言,在宣说时的眷属们,由各自的结集者以不忘失的陀罗尼记住,记录成文字,从而使之在这个世间兴盛。因乘

In the auspicious forest, the Teacher manifested as the Primordial Buddha Samantabhadra, and for those retinues who were not other than himself, he taught the tantras of the Great Samantabhadra residing within oneself, such as the Great Perfection, the Mind Essence, and so forth. The three, Maha, Anu, and Ati, are unique characteristics of the Nyingma school of Secret Mantra, unknown in the New Tantras, and they possess the most extraordinary key points. Thus, the countless Dharma doors that were taught, for the beings residing in the world, and for those of the Hearer, Solitary Realizer, and Bodhisattva lineages, the actual body of Shakyamuni taught the vehicles of reasoning in India and other places. To the gods and the great Bodhisattvas such as Avalokiteśvara, Mañjuśrī, and Vajrapāṇi, he taught the three outer tantras in the form of the Great Illuminating All-Knowing One. To the five Buddha families and their retinues, he manifested as Samantabhadra and taught the three inner Yoga tantras. These were all in accordance with the different mental capacities of the beings to be tamed. In common places such as Dhanakośa (藏文,梵文天城体,Dhanakośa,Treasury of Wealth), the Cool Grove, the King's Residence, and the Flaming Mountain, and in special places such as Akanishta, the Space of the Mother, the Source of Dharma, and the Immeasurable Palace of Great Liberation, the Teacher appeared in separate common and special forms, turning the wheel of Dharma of cause and effect for the superior, middling, and inferior retinues to be tamed, abiding solely in miraculous displays. In reality, it is the one Teacher who appears in various forms of bodies and wisdom activities to tame different beings, manifesting in various forms of teachers, opening countless Dharma doors, extensively teaching the eighty-four thousand collections of Dharma, condensing them into the twelve categories of scriptures, and further condensing them into the famous nine vehicles, and although there are countless other classifications, in reality, they can be summarized into the two vehicles of cause and effect. These teachings were spoken from the mouth, blessed, and permitted, and can be divided into three types according to the manner of speaking. These teachings of the vehicles of cause and effect that were taught in this way, the compilers among the retinues at the time of teaching, remembered with unfailing dharanis, recorded them in writing, and thus made them flourish in this world. The causal vehicle

共同乘由大迦叶等结集,由人传人而兴盛。一些大乘经典由文殊等结集,主要通过菩萨传承而在人间兴盛。果乘密咒金刚乘,并非释迦国王亲自在人间调伏的共同对象前显说,而是为了有缘的殊胜根器者而秘密传授,为了遣除劣等调伏对象对密咒的疑惑,在当时的共同调伏眷属的显现中,释迦自在王亲自宣说此密咒教法最初在人间出现的景象,如经部《国王请问经》中所说:“我于涅槃后,十二年时,于国王匝之楼阁顶,以慈悲相应的加持,金刚手将宣说。”与此相符,导师以威力劝请五部如来及佛子们。此果法被写在金册上,用青金石的文字书写,由于慈悲一致的加持神变,在国王匝的楼顶上,如从虚空中自然降临般显现,国王匝和导师咕咕ra匝以金刚萨埵的威力领悟了其中的含义,从而使密咒在人间兴盛。此外,文殊菩萨使其显现在天界,观世音菩萨使其显现在龙族之地,金刚手使其显现在夜叉的处所。在此赡部洲,克里亚在瓦拉纳西,瑜伽在喜马拉雅山的顶端燃烧的火焰山,玛哈和阿努在国王匝的处所,阿底瑜伽在达那郭夏洲被宣说和修持,从而得到广泛发展。此外,四部和五部是生起、圆满、大圆满三者的共同续部,幻化八部因为见解属于阿底,行属于玛哈,所以也被说是属于阿努的续部。从开示生起、圆满、大圆满要诀的角度来看,如何安立都可以。这些就是总的教言的来历,被称为宁玛密咒。

The common vehicles were compiled by the great Kashyapa and others, and flourished through transmission from person to person. Some Mahayana scriptures were compiled by Manjushri and others, and flourished in the human realm mainly through the transmission of Bodhisattvas. The Fruition Vehicle, the Secret Mantra Vajrayana, was not explicitly taught by Shakya himself in front of the common objects of taming in the human realm, but was secretly taught for the sake of the fortunate and superior beings. In order to dispel the doubts of the inferior beings towards the Secret Mantra, in the appearance of the common taming retinue at that time, Shakya, the Lord of Power, himself declared that this teaching of Secret Mantra would first appear in the human realm. As it is said in the Sutra "The King's Questions": "After my Nirvana, in the twelfth year, on the roof of King Ja's palace, through the blessings of compassionate harmony, Vajrapani will teach." In accordance with this, the Teacher, through his power, urged the Buddhas of the five families and their successors. This Fruition Dharma was written on golden tablets with lapis lazuli letters, and through the miraculous power of compassionate harmony, it appeared on the roof of King Ja's palace as if descending naturally from the sky. King Ja and the master Kukkuraja realized its meaning through the power of Vajrasattva, thus causing the Secret Mantra to flourish in this human realm. Furthermore, Manjushri made it appear in the realm of the gods, Avalokiteshvara made it appear in the land of the Nagas, and Vajrapani made it appear in the abode of the Yakshas. In this Jambudvipa, Kriya is in Varanasi, Yoga is on the summit of the Himalayas, the burning Fire Mountain, Maha and Anu are in the place of King Ja himself, and Ati Yoga is taught and practiced in the island of Dhanakosha, thus widely developing. Furthermore, the four and five sections of tantras are the general tantras of the three: Generation, Completion, and Great Completion stages. The eight classes of Magical Illusion are said to belong to the Anu tantras because their view belongs to Ati and their conduct belongs to Maha. However, it is acceptable to arrange them in any way from the perspective of teaching the key points of Generation, Completion, and Great Completion. These are the general origins of the teachings, known as the Nyingma Secret Mantra.
