That the place of abode of Dharmata is, the mandala of perfect spontaneity. May auspiciousness prevail! Three kinds of peaceful white milk, yogurt and butter, as well as cheese of full season and extensive season, the two fires, one power, top root of the lotus, and coarse foods such as fierce poison, garlic, ginger, etc., subdued by mantras, are consumed. Whatever increases nourishment, yogurt and meat are necessary conditions. May auspiciousness prevail! By undertaking the four activities, the enemy of obstacles is pacified, and the wisdom of meaning increases, and the discordant sides are gathered into power, and the obstacles of enemies and obstructors are removed, and the wisdom of great bliss spontaneously arises in oneself, and all beings to be tamed are placed in the four meanings of spontaneity. May auspiciousness prevail! Appearance, emptiness, two, the four limits of non-duality, in the reality of complete perfection, those with nihilistic views and consequentialists repeat that Dharmata is empty. Desiring to save beings from suffering, they rely on the power of the aspiration of the path to achieve it. This is also contradictory. What does it contradict? It contradicts emptiness. How can everything be empty, then the very aspiration to accomplish something becomes empty. If this is accepted, then the two abilities contradict each other, so benefiting beings is not accomplished. Those who hold to existence, the five groups, consider things to be temporary, and they also believe that they themselves are possessed by the demon of real existence. The Madhyamika outer tantras accept two truths, ultimate truth and conventional truth, and the two contradictions of existence and non-existence are combined into one nature. Some inner practitioners, who accept the non-duality of the two truths, save themselves and those of the same kind from the suffering of contradictory samsara. May auspiciousness prevail! All four limits are complete, and the one-sidedness is free from everything. Blessings become the glory of beings, and accomplishing meaning is effortless, spontaneous great bliss. Placing all beings to be tamed is the means of liberating the continuum. The manifestation of wisdom appears in any way, like a precious jewel-like instruction. May all sentient beings be liberated through this. May auspiciousness prevail! The magical display of wisdom is fully shown in the four activities. Complete. The Indian Abbot Shri Simha Prabha and the Tibetan translator Bhikshu Vairochana translated, edited, and finalized it in the assembly hall of Dhahena. Sei Benze Jungden added notes in accordance with his own views.
