Secondly, regarding the description of the five Buddha families: Vajrasattva holds a five-pronged vajra in his right hand, Vairochana holds a four-spoked wheel, Ratnasambhava holds a radiant jewel, Amitabha holds a lotus, and Amoghasiddhi holds a sword. These five Buddhas all hold their respective emblems in their right hands, placing them at their hearts, and hold a bell in their left hands, embracing their consorts. The five consorts also embrace their consorts from the necks with their right hands, and hold a bell in their left hands at their hearts. All these emblems are radiant with light. As for the three-faced, six-armed deity as described in the Mayajala Tantra, as stated in the Mayajala Vajra Tantra: Vajra, wheel, burning sword, bell, lotus, jewel, are the order of Vajradhara. Elsewhere, know the vajra, first the heart, then the left embrace. Thus it is said. The emblems of the Bodhisattvas and Bodhisattva consorts are: lotus, nagavriksha, and so on. Thus, Bodhisattva Manjushri holds a lotus in his hand, Bodhisattva Maitreya holds a nagavriksha in his hand, and so on. From these 'and so on,' other emblems also arise: Kshitigarbha holds a jewel sprout, Akashagarbha holds a sword, Avalokiteshvara holds a lotus, Vajrapani holds a vajra, Nivarana-vishkambhin holds a dharma wheel, and Samantabhadra holds a jewel rice stalk. As it says: 'Holding pleasing offerings.' Therefore, the inner four consorts hold emblems in a beautiful manner: Lasya holds a beautiful mirror in her hand, Mala holds a jewel rosary, Gita holds a lute, and Nirti makes a dancing mudra. The outer four consorts hold pleasing offerings: Dhupa holds an incense burner, Pushpa holds flowers, Aloka holds a butter lamp, and Gandha holds a conch shell filled with fragrance. Furthermore, the emblems of the four wrathful deities who subdue the maras are: Yamantaka holds a skull-headed staff, Mahabala holds a five-pronged vajra, Hayagriva holds a skull cup entwined with snakes, and Amrita Kundalin holds various vajras. The wrathful mothers hold iron hooks, ropes, iron chains, and bells. Samantabhadra is in a meditation posture with his right hand facing upwards, and Samantabhadri is in a meditation posture with her left hand facing upwards, or with the vajra mudra at the heart.

愿吉祥!首先,展示身体的特征是:身体的手印等,因业力的力量而各自显现。那里有这样的话。一般来说,身体是指作为所依的事物。在这里,身体是指作为果位的法或功德的所依。身体的手印至高无上,意思是说,圆满正等觉佛的俱生身是五身自然成就的,因此身体的手印非常伟大,第六胜者的身体是所有佛的共同形象。这样,如果将一个身体的不同方面进行区分,从界(梵文:dhātu)主要的角度来说是法身,从那成熟的无量眷属面前显现为具有五种决定的报身,从信解无量眷属面前显现为不具有五种决定的化身,从三身在显现方面不混杂的角度来说是现证菩提之身,从不可分割的角度来说是金刚身。也就是说,正如“如是,从界中未动摇”所说,从无二的如是性之界或智慧中未寻觅、未动摇的是法身。“也”是 جمع 的词,也就是那也,正如“真实解脱之色身”所说,因为没有要抛弃的,所以是真实的,从束缚的两个结中解脱出来的共同和不共同的相好所庄严的色身是报身。正如“为了调伏所有众生,随顺所化现的身是多种多样的”所说,为了具有调伏所有六道众生的必要,随顺所调伏者的身是示现不可思议的多种多样的化身。正如“示现犹如幻术眼花,此状未离于界”所说,示现多种多样的身体本身,虽然显现为如幻术或眼花般的形态,但以并非真实成立的比喻来象征,两种色身的形态也未曾离开法界,因此法身和色身不可分割,所以称为金刚身。正如“未动摇而多种多样”所说,从那法身本身未动摇,五身不需寻觅而自然成就,与所调伏者的智慧层次相符而显现为多种多样。

May it be auspicious! First, the presentation of the characteristics of the body is: The mudra of the body, etc., appear separately due to the power of karma. There are such words there. Generally, the term "body" refers to something that serves as a support. Here, "body" refers to the support for the qualities or virtues of the fruit. The great and supreme mudra of the body means that the co-emergent body of the perfectly complete Buddha is naturally accomplished with the five bodies, so the mudra of the body is very great, and the body of the Sixth Victor is the common form of all Buddhas. Thus, if we differentiate the aspects of one body, from the perspective of the primary element (Sanskrit: dhātu), it is the Dharmakaya. From the perspective of its maturation, appearing with five certainties before the assembly of limitless retinues, it is the Sambhogakaya. From the perspective of appearing without five certainties before the assembly of limitless devotion, it is the Nirmanakaya. From the perspective of the three bodies not being mixed in appearance, it is the Manifest Enlightenment Body. From the perspective of being indivisible, it is established as the Vajra Body. That is, as it is said, "Thus, not moved from the element," what is not sought or moved from the element or wisdom of suchness, which is non-dual, is the Dharmakaya. "Also" is a word of جمع, that is, that also, as it is said, "The form body of true liberation," because there is nothing to abandon, it is true; the form body adorned with common and uncommon marks and signs, liberated from the two knots of bondage, is the Sambhogakaya. As it is said, "For the sake of taming all beings, the body that accords is shown in various ways," for the purpose of having the necessity to tame all six types of beings, the body that accords with those to be tamed is the Nirmanakaya, which shows inconceivable variety. As it is said, "Showing itself like an illusion or a mirage, this state does not move from the element," the showing of various bodies themselves, although appearing like an illusion or a mirage, is symbolized by an example of not being truly established, and the state of the two form bodies does not depart from the Dharmadhatu, so the Dharmakaya and the Rupakaya are indivisible, and therefore it is called the Vajra Body. As it is said, "Without moving, yet various," without moving from that Dharmakaya itself, the five bodies are naturally accomplished without needing to be sought, appearing in various ways in accordance with the level of intelligence of those to be tamed.
