Do not conceal. If merits are not shown, joy in virtue will not arise. If the means of fulfillment are not shown, it contradicts the saying "Secret mantras have many means." If examples are not shown, the meaning of good and bad will not be understood. If one cannot gather the meanings of the four tantras into one, one will go astray, therefore, less than ten is not acceptable, and more is better. Second, there are ten aspects to elaborating on the text, the first of which is the essence. There are three aspects to this, the first being the root: If the essence of the vows is determined, then the root vows are bodhicitta, and the three aspects of body, speech, and mind, these four are the root. Second is the branches: For the uncommon, there are five practices, five not to abandon, five to accept, five to accomplish, and five to know. For the common, there are self-benefit and other-benefit, thus there are two branch vows. Third is the root of the root: Among the four roots, the greatest is the bodhicitta vow, which is connected to the four tantras. If this is protected, then the remaining three hundred and sixty objects of protection are briefly included in it, and the arising of three hundred and sixty is also related as a means to prevent this from deteriorating. Second, there are two types, the first being a brief explanation: The number of types of root and branch vows are explained in detail and clearly shown, like this. Second, there are two aspects to the detailed explanation, the first being the general way in which vows are limitless: In general, the number of sentient beings in the six realms is limitless, and the number of wrong thoughts in the mindstream of each sentient being is limitless and proliferates immeasurably. Even the omniscient Buddha cannot count the sands of the Ganges, therefore, in order to subdue each thought, it is necessary to proclaim each type of vow as an antidote. Because thoughts are limitless, the types of vows as their antidote are also limitless, therefore even the victorious Buddha cannot express it. Second, if summarized, it is included in three hundred and sixty. There are two aspects to this, the first being the reason for the number arising: However, considering the benefit of sentient beings with dull minds, if we identify a brief summary, it is like this. Second, there are three aspects to the actual types, the first being the root types: The bodhicitta vow has two aspects, ultimate and conventional, and the body vow.

需要像那样的。其根本的比喻是,比如一个难以取悦的暴君,他手下有一个非常卑微的仆人,拿着一满罐酥油,走到泥泞之中。背后有一个拿着锋利宝剑的人跟着,如果滴落一滴,就会被砍头。如果能安全送到,就会得到丰厚的奖赏。虽然外面有歌舞和音乐等各种表演,但他的感官不会被分散,他会像对待生命一样专注于此。同样,像仆人一样的瑜伽士们,对于像国王一样的上师所给予的,像酥油一样极其难以守护的三昧耶戒,如果像被砍头一样,一旦违犯,就会堕入三恶道受苦。如果能好好守护,就能显现像奖赏一样的殊胜和共同成就。因此,不要被像表演一样的世间散乱所控制,要认真守护自己的誓言。第二,守护之法广说有二,第一是根本的三昧耶戒。其中有五,第一是菩提心的三昧耶戒。其中有四,第一是世俗菩提心的三昧耶戒:自己的身体的五蕴、十二处和十八界,从原始以来就是四十二位佛陀的身体,是摩诃穆扎(梵文:Mahāmudrā,梵文罗马拟音:Mahāmudrā,汉语字面意思:大手印)。也就是五蕴是五部,五大是五母,四种识是内在的四位勇识,其四境是四母,四根是外在的四位勇识,四时是其四母,身体的根、识、根境三者聚合的触等四者是四忿怒尊,常断我见和执着相状四者是四忿怒母,六种烦恼是六能仁,作意者是普贤,所作法是普贤佛母。同样,要知道并证悟六道众生的五蕴、十二处和十八界也安住于诸佛的坛城之中。那么,如此显现的诸法不是有实体的吗?不是的,因为是显空不二的智慧身,是摩诃穆扎(梵文:Mahāmudrā,梵文罗马拟音:Mahāmudrā,汉语字面意思:大手印)。第二,胜义菩提心是:自己的身体所做的,眼睛所见之色,舌头所尝之味等六识的

Something like that is needed. Its fundamental analogy is, for example, a servant of a very difficult-to-please tyrant, who takes a full container of butter and goes into the mud. Behind him walks someone with a sharp sword, and if a single drop spills, he will be beheaded. If he delivers it safely, he will be given a great reward. Although there are various performances such as singing, dancing, and music outside, his senses are not distracted by them; he focuses on it as if it were his life. Similarly, yogis who are like servants, for the Samaya vows that are like butter, given by a teacher who is like a king, are extremely difficult to protect. If they are violated, like being beheaded, they will fall into the three lower realms and suffer. If they can protect them well, they will manifest the supreme and common accomplishments that are like rewards. Therefore, do not be controlled by worldly distractions that are like performances, but diligently guard your vows. Second, the detailed explanation of how to protect them has two parts: first, the root Samaya vows. There are five of these, the first being the Samaya vows of Bodhicitta. There are four of these, the first being the conventional Samaya vows of Bodhicitta: all of one's own body's aggregates, elements, and sense bases are, from the very beginning, the body of the forty-two victorious ones, the Great Seal (Sanskrit: Mahāmudrā, Romanized Sanskrit: Mahāmudrā, Literal Chinese meaning: Great Seal). That is, the five aggregates are the five families, the five elements are the five mothers, the four consciousnesses are the four inner heroes, their four objects are the four mothers, the four faculties are the four outer heroes, the four times are their four mothers, the touch that combines the body's faculty, consciousness, and object, and the four are the four wrathful ones, the four views of permanence, annihilation, self, and clinging to characteristics are the four wrathful mothers, the six afflictions are the six Buddhas, the one who attends is Samantabhadra, and the Dharma to be practiced is shown to be Samantabhadri. Similarly, one should know and realize that all the aggregates, elements, and sense bases of all sentient beings in the six realms also abide in the mandala of the victorious ones. So, are the phenomena that appear in this way substantial? No, because they are the body of wisdom that is inseparable from appearance and emptiness, the Great Seal (Sanskrit: Mahāmudrā, Romanized Sanskrit: Mahāmudrā, Literal Chinese meaning: Great Seal). Second, the ultimate Bodhicitta is: what is done by one's own body, the forms seen by the eyes, the tastes tasted by the tongue, and so on, of the six consciousnesses.

当一切显现生起时,因为心即是自性,所以心不是任何事物,因此身体做着行为。眼睛看到形色等六识的显现,并非自性成立,而是空性。在空性之中,显现出各种所知。像这样,生起次第和圆满次第的意义,要先以正念和正知来守护,并且在三时中持续不断地融入自相续。第三,不具备这些的过患是:像这样,如果不能在三时中持续忆念生起次第和圆满次第的意义,那么如何能成为殊胜密宗瑜伽士呢?根本无法成为。第四,守护誓言的瑜伽士的特征是:见解上通达二谛无别,行为上与此见解不分离,誓言上不违越、不破损,并且是与三摩地相连的瑜伽士。第二,守护身誓言的方法有两种,第一是上师的誓言。其中有四种,第一是首先守护的对境的数量:直到共同的皈依戒律之前是共同的上师;请求灌顶的晚上,金刚上师面前引导者是引导的上师;给予誓言和灌顶者是誓言灌顶的上师;接受密宗经续者是使自己心续解脱的上师;介绍生起次第和圆满次第引导次第者是口诀传承的上师。对于这些上师,第二,以比喻的数量来象征守护的方式:对于共同的上师,如同受国土支配的国王的命令管辖的人们,必须不违背法律一样地尊敬;对于引导的上师,如同王子必须由叔父安排座位一样地尊敬;对于誓言灌顶的上师,如同母亲生养自己的身体一样地尊敬;对于弥补破损的上师,如同父亲消除自己的过错一样地尊敬;对于使心续解脱的上师,如同眼睛使自己看见一样地尊敬;对于口诀传承的上师,如同没有心脏,其他身体存在也没有意义一样地尊敬。因此,必须这样尊敬上师。
