These three, namely karma and merit, are like a lamp, a lampstand, and lamp oil, relying on each other to sustain life for a long time. Thirdly, according to the number of breaths each person takes, counting 21,600 breaths per day, after a hundred years, through the gradual process of gathering the channels, winds, and bindus, signs of death will appear. Due to the influence of sudden factors, the deviations in the movement of the sun and moon on the left and right will increase sharply, and the shape of a house will appear in the navel, eight parts in the heart, constellations in the throat, and the order of feet on the crown of the head, disappearing in a short period of time, thus causing untimely signs of death. If you want to know more details, the content is vast and boundless, and you need to understand it from the tantric scriptures, instructions, and oral teachings. The second part has six aspects: What place to observe? How to observe? When to observe? The relational statement of signs. Examine how many signs appear. The necessity of observation. The first point comes from 'The Realization of Deceiving the Lord of Death': If someone is about to die and wants to know its characteristics, then he should shift his mind from the body of ease to other knowable places. Due to the power of physical discomfort, greed, dimness, etc., and the influence of fear and sorrow, different scenes will appear from the original state. It's like this. The second point, although there are various classifications and summaries in scriptures and oral instructions, in short, there are two types: external and internal signs. The first type has six aspects: At noon on the days when Cancer and Capricorn alternate, the shadow of oneself increases or decreases, reverses position, or excessively decreases is a sign of death; excessive increase is a sign of disease affliction, these are judged by observing the shadow. If you feel that the soles of the feet and the navel are hollow, it will turn into five days three days before, etc., these are judged by observing sudden pain. Feeling numb when excrement and urine are discharged together, discharging black substances on the first day of the white month, the smoke of Mount Sumeru appearing, the utta of the ear, the radiance of the queen, the breaking of Brahma's thread, etc., these are judged by observing the body. The eyes cannot perceive shapes normally or incorrectly, the ears cannot perceive sounds normally or incorrectly, and various things are experienced as illusions, these are judged by observing the senses. In a cloudless clear sky, in the morning or evening, or after watching one's own shadow in the moonlight for a long time, seeing the shape of the shadow in the sky, whether there is a problem

现在是检查,即检查阴影;脉搏收缩且气息以歪曲的方式流动,以及由于邪魔进入脉搏位置而引发疾病的缘故,出现黑暗笼罩、日月西沉,佩戴红色装饰和花环,赤身裸体地游荡,骑着驴子向南方行进等寿命衰减,神志恍惚,与三种过失相合,突然死亡的各种预兆显现的梦境的检查,详细内容可以从《死亡欺骗的证悟》等处了解。第二是检查气息,这有总的和特别的两种。第一种是:如《空行母海》中所说:“无明水怪罗睺罗。”一样,凭借缘起和结合的力量,首先进行星宿月的转移,然后由无病安住的普通人检查气息的转移。也就是从白分初一开始,三天内早上天亮到半个时辰之间,首先是月亮的气息流动。之后三天太阳的气息首先流动等,如果交替流动没有错乱,寿命自然安住。如果五六天之内颠倒流动,就会出现争论和悲伤等争吵。如果一个方面颠倒,就会遭受难以忍受的疾病。如果两个方面颠倒,朋友亲戚就会衰败。如果在三个方面颠倒,或者从三个口鼻流动,或者一起流动十天都不转移,或者半个时辰内多次转移,或者只从一个口流动等,都是邪魔吞噬而死的征兆。从氐宿、鬼宿、参宿、觜宿、柳宿、星宿这六个星宿的宫位转移开始,每五天只有太阳的气息流动,就会依次在十八年、十五年、十二年、九年、六年、三年之后死亡。如果月亮的气息也这样流动,也会出现疾病等损害。第二种是:在出生宫位中,出生星宿与月亮相遇,并且太阳偏离七个宫位的时候,这时称为增长的时候,是检查寿命长短的特殊时间。在增长的时候,如果太阳的气息流动到半天,就会从十四岁开始死亡,如果流动一天,就会在十二岁死亡,直到流动十五天,就会在一年死亡。如果流动二十五天,就会在三个月死亡。如果流动一个月,就会在三天死亡。如果流动三十三天

Now is the examination, that is, the examination of shadows; the pulse contracts and the breath flows in a distorted way, and due to the reason that demons enter the pulse location and cause illness, there appears darkness enveloping, the sun and moon setting, wearing red decorations and garlands, wandering naked, riding a donkey and going south, etc., life diminishes, the mind is distracted, and combined with the three faults, the examination of dreams in which various omens of sudden death appear, the details of which can be learned from the "Realization of Death Deception" and other sources. The second is the examination of breath, which has two types: general and specific. The first is: As it is said in the "Ocean of Dakinis": "Ignorant water monster Rahu." Likewise, by the power of dependent origination and combination, first the transition of the lunar mansion is performed, and then the transition of breath is examined by a person who is healthy and in a normal state. That is, starting from the first day of the white fortnight, for three days, from dawn to half a watch, the lunar breath flows first. Then for three days, the solar breath flows first, etc. If the alternating flow is not mistaken, life naturally abides. If it flows in reverse within five or six days, disputes and sorrows, etc., will arise. If one aspect is reversed, unbearable illness will be suffered. If two aspects are reversed, friends and relatives will decline. If it is reversed in three aspects, or flows from all three mouths and noses, or flows together without changing for ten days, or changes many times in half a watch, or flows only from one mouth, etc., these are all signs of death by demonic consumption. Starting from the transition of the mansions of the six constellations: Krittika, Rohini, Mrigashira, Ardra, Ashlesha, and Magha, if only the solar breath flows for every five days, death will occur sequentially after eighteen years, fifteen years, twelve years, nine years, six years, and three years. If the lunar breath flows in the same way, harm such as illness will also occur. The second is: In the birth chart, when the birth star meets the moon and the sun deviates by seven mansions, this is called the time of increase, which is a special time for examining the length of life. At the time of increase, if the solar breath flows for half a day, death will occur from the age of fourteen, and if it flows for one day, death will occur at the age of twelve, until it flows for fifteen days, death will occur in one year. If it flows for twenty-five days, death will occur in three months. If it flows for one month, death will occur in three days. If it flows for thirty-three days

因此,要知道就在那一天死亡等等。内在的征兆对于辨别生存和死亡非常重要。正如导师所说:如果内在的特征,没有成为真正的确定,仅仅凭借外在的特征,不能很好地确定死亡的征兆。如果两者都确定且清晰,那就会确定无疑地死亡。外在的认知是颠倒的,也会由疾病等引起。这是有原因的说法。此外,在古老的密续中说:面容改变,行为举止变得放荡,导师和医生都错过了时机,食物也不合口味,这些都是衰败的迹象。等等,确定和不确定,以及近和远的死亡征兆的差别是不可思议的,只能从其他地方了解。第三,在什么时候观察呢?寂天说:日夜不停留,此生总是衰败,如果不能额外增加,我等怎能不死?因为必定会死亡,而且是迅速死亡的确定者,所以不要拖延,现在就开始努力修行佛法和欺骗死亡的方法。一旦脉和气的力量被吸收,疾病摧毁了身体的营养,元素邪魔击中了要害,就无法欺骗死亡了。例如,下层房间着火时,如果用方法扑灭,还可以补救;但如果上层房间着火,就无法扑灭和补救了。考虑到这一点,导师说:死亡的征兆从很久以前,就应该知道并进行补救。当闪电击中头顶时,即使非常聪明又有什么用呢?第四,在《月光经》中说:正如果实的花朵,火的烟雾,雨的云彩,是后来出现的征兆一样,同样,从死亡的征兆中必定会死亡。没有死亡的征兆就不会死亡,出现死亡的征兆就无法生存。就像世间的果实、火和雨水等出现的前兆,花朵、烟雾和云彩等征兆出现一样,如果原因先出现,那么结果后来出现是毫无疑问的。第五,导师说:死亡的征兆是无限的,所以不希望同时出现,也不是全部依次出现。

Therefore, one should know about dying on that very day, etc. Internal signs are extremely important for discerning life and death. As the teacher said: If the internal characteristics, do not become truly certain, merely by external characteristics alone, one cannot properly ascertain the signs of death. If both are certain and clear, then it will certainly become death itself. External cognition is inverted, and can also be caused by diseases, etc. This is said with reason. Furthermore, in the ancient tantras it says: Facial changes, behavior becomes dissolute, the teacher and physician miss the opportune time, and food is also not to one's liking, these are signs of decline. Etc., the differences between certain and uncertain, and near and far signs of death are inconceivable, and can only be learned from others. Third, when should one examine? Shantideva said: Day and night do not stay, this life is always decaying, and if there is no additional increase, how can I not die? Because one will certainly die, and is certain to die quickly, one should not procrastinate, but strive now to practice the Dharma and the means of deceiving death. Once the power of the channels and winds has been absorbed, disease has destroyed the body's nutrients, and elemental demons have struck the vital points, death cannot be deceived. For example, when a fire breaks out in the lower room, if one puts it out with methods, it can be remedied; but if it breaks out in the upper room, it cannot be extinguished or remedied. Considering this, the teacher said: The signs of death from a long time ago, should be known and remedied. When lightning strikes the top of the head, what use is it even if one is very clever? Fourth, in the Moonlight Sutra it says: Just as the flowers of fruit, the smoke of fire, the clouds of rain, are signs that appear later, similarly, from the signs of death one will certainly die. If there are no signs of death, one will not die, if signs of death appear, one cannot live. Just as the precursors of the appearance of worldly fruits, fire, and rain, such as the signs of flowers, smoke, and clouds, appear, if the cause appears first, then there is no doubt that the result will appear later. Fifth, the teacher said: The signs of death are infinite, so it is not desirable for them to appear all at once, nor are they all in sequence.

。然而,正如所说“以一等数字”,一个人的寿命耗尽时,无数的死亡预兆并非依次或同时出现。确定的死亡预兆出现一或二等,即使这样也必定会死亡。不确定的死亡预兆即使出现很多,也能用避免死亡的方法来逆转。还有,有些人即使没有出现梦兆和姿态等死亡预兆也会死亡,这是因为寿命或气息等必定会出现死亡预兆,只是自己没有确定。即使出现了梦兆等预兆也不会死亡,这是因为神 побуждают к Дхарме,或者修习佛法时,妖魔等制造障碍的预兆。第六,导师说:“死亡从长远确定,如何尽力延缓,以及投入治疗,将成为极大的成就。” 如是说,因为不知道死亡的预兆,所以不知道何时会死。因为不知道,所以不努力修行佛法和谋生。因为不努力,所以在没有察觉到寿命耗尽时,死亡的时刻到来,无法避免,所以从长远开始观察寿命长短,努力谋生,就能毫不费力地成就长寿的果实。第七,谋生的仪轨虽然无边无际,但归纳起来有两种:外和内。第一种有三种:宝物、药物和身语意的行为。第一种有两种:殊胜和普通。第一种是:杰仁炯夏说:“诸佛的舍利是宝物中的殊胜,能实现一切所需所愿。声闻、缘觉、菩萨,以及具有瑜伽者的遗骨,供养并佩戴在身上,所有邪魔都无法靠近。” 如是说,更何况是佩戴,仅仅是见到、听到、忆念、触碰,就能平息罪障,实现愿望等,利益无边,而且殊胜的宝物也都是由诸佛的遗骨所化成。第二种是,《证悟》中说:“在珍宝特征论典中,所说经过详细观察的金刚持,也可以佩戴寿命宝珠,同样可以佩戴各种宝物,因陀罗尼蓝宝石等,其他大宝物,佩戴后所有死亡都能被避免。
