Invite the Lamas, Buddhas, and Bodhisattvas to the sky in front. In front of them, if you recite this tantra with the vajra tongue as many times as your age, you will completely purify all the sins of seven kalpas. In the future, you will become a Buddha named Vajra Essence, as stated in the Great Array Sutra. Also, making it into a precious scripture and carrying it will have the same merit. "Writing" means writing on dark blue precious leaves with gold, enshrining it in a clean place, and making offerings and respect. This will completely purify the sins of seventy-two kalpas, as stated in the twenty-first chapter of the Great Array Sutra. Furthermore, it is said in the Sutras that writing countless Paramita scriptures with precious gold and making offerings, praises, and reverence for seven kalpas is surpassed by writing a single verse of the secret mantra tantra with precious materials and making offerings for seven days. Even a hundredfold merit cannot compare, as stated in the Sutras. "Merely holding it" means that generally, the Secret Mantra Tantras, especially the Great Perfection, and especially the root of all the Tripitaka, this Sound Transformation, even if held by all animals such as birds, will immediately take birth as a god or human with merit after death in this life. After that birth, one will become a Buddha, as stated by Vajradhara in the Precious Qualities Perfectly Manifested Tantra. Whoever holds the root of all the Tripitaka, called the Secret Sound Tantra, whoever holds it for one or two days, or if they hold it for three days, this person has held all the supreme qualities of all the Buddhas and will not remain in the three realms. This is what the Sutra says. Also, a faithful son of good family, writing on any paper, wrapping it with five-colored silk, making it into a three-finger-wide scripture, and hanging it around the neck, this person will be free from illness, will have a long life, will gather retinues, will have wealth, will be worthy of all offerings, will have a widespread reputation, and non-humans will also protect, save, give, increase radiance and strength, and the leaves of the tree

The ḍākinīs also cause wisdom and knowledge to increase, and they show the blessings of the ḍākinīs to be supreme, and they will surely show prophecies and so forth. In the next life, one will also be born in the buddha-fields, which are blissful and delightful, extremely beautiful and pleasing. In this life, too, the remembrance of previous lives and so forth will arise. If there is an earthquake, or when the sun and moon are eclipsed, or when many disturbances occur in the kingdom, if one recites this with offerings and tormas going before, those blessings will surely come. Furthermore, if some son or daughter of good family writes this on silk and keeps the well-folded book on the crown of their head in the midst of a tuft of hair, they will also obtain the same qualities as before. Furthermore, even if an ordinary person who has not been prophesied also writes this well and keeps it carefully where other beings cannot see it, they will obtain the same qualities as before, and for hundreds of thousands of kalpas, this person will enjoy having performed honor, service, attendance, and worship to all the buddhas of the three times. Thus, the retinue of those who appear in advance promised that for those fortunate ones of the future who read this, write and hold it, listen, entrust, meditate, and realize it, by protecting, saving, increasing, serving, and honoring them, the ḍākinīs and the buddhas and bodhisattvas, in the presence of the teacher, having vowed, praised the teacher, the Bhagavan Buddha. From the later times, the disciples, in the presence of the guru, vowed to hold this and to keep it, and rejoiced in the body, speech, and mind of the kind guru, and praised the body that is naturally perfect with such qualities. Having praised in this way in advance, then the assembly of the teacher's retinue, gathered with faith, rejoiced in the Bhagavan Buddha, the teacher, because the three realms were completely emptied, were satisfied because they had found the nature of reality in themselves, and because they had seen the completely pure wisdom of the teacher's mind, the joy of the mind arose from the mind itself, the Bhagavan.

由于对逝世者生起了极大的敬仰之心,因此获得了如是的禅定自在。法性完全清净的虚空,自性清净而显明,一切法不可言说的词句,各自在自己心中显现。由于自然明澈之心的意念自然而然地获得,因此对导师释迦牟尼佛生起了随喜之心。仅仅生起随喜之心,各自便获得了身语意的安乐。那些眷属们,自心空性,远离执着,自然而然,未经改造。一切法如幻如镜,无边无际,圆满广大之义。心髓自显自解脱。证悟了无二大平等空性。一切法是无戏论的词句,是超越文字的意义。在平等性无边无际的状态中,成为一体。如此转变,轮回涅槃的一切法都融入于寂静之中。特别殊胜的证悟。深奥的要诀,同时具备之义。在远离一和多的状态中,成为一体。如此转变,天子喜乐自在等眷属们,获得了与释迦牟尼佛,一切法自性无边的意念,以及同等性。因此,与导师释迦牟尼佛无二无别。之后,那些眷属们异口同声地对导师说出了这些欢喜赞叹之词。奇哉!从莲花中化生而来的导师释迦牟尼佛。您是我们这些人的续部之王。这自然流露之语,从法性完全清净的虚空中,不依赖任何言语,从完全清净之心的坛城中自然而生。从金刚不坏的颈部宝瓶中自然显现。从极乐之齿中自然生起,自然显现。在莲花盛开的舌根上自然舒展。从自性清净的加持力中,不发出任何言语而宣说,真是太好了!对其他众生的利益也太好了!为了自他二利的利益而善说,使我们这些眷属成熟为果位三身。因此,为了众生的利益,祈请您长久住世。我们

Having generated supreme devotion to the departed, one thereby obtains mastery over such samadhi. The nature of reality, the utterly pure sky, is clear with its self-nature utterly pure, and the words that cannot express all phenomena dawn individually in each of us. Because the intention of the great self-illuminating mind is spontaneously mastered, rejoicing arises towards the teacher, the Buddha, the Bhagavan. As soon as it arises, each individual finds the bliss of body, speech, and mind. Those retinues, their own minds empty, free from grasping, naturally uncorrected. All phenomena are like illusions and mirrors, boundless, the meaning of great perfection. The essence is self-appearing, self-liberated. Having realized the great non-dual equality as utterly transparent. All phenomena are words without elaboration, meanings beyond letters. In the state of equality, free from extremes, they become of one taste. Thus it transforms, and all phenomena of samsara and nirvana subside into quiescence. A particularly special realization. The meaning of a single, profound, all-encompassing essence. In the state of being free from one and many, it becomes of one taste. Thus it transforms, and those retinues, such as the son of the gods, Delightful Power, obtain the Bhagavan Buddha himself, the intention of all phenomena being naturally boundless, and equality of taste. Therefore, they become inseparable from the teacher, the Bhagavan Buddha himself. Then, those retinues, with one voice to the teacher, speak these words of joy and delight: O teacher, Bhagavan Buddha, born miraculously from a lotus! You are the king of the tantras for us. This spontaneous expression, from the sky of the utterly pure nature of reality, without relying on any spoken words, arises naturally from the mandala of the utterly pure mind. It appears spontaneously from the vajra indivisible vase of the neck. From the tooth of great bliss, it arises spontaneously, self-appearing. Unfolding spontaneously on the lotus-blooming power of the tongue. From the blessing of self-nature utterly pure, without uttering many words, you have spoken, it is indeed very good! It is also good for the sake of other sentient beings! Having spoken well for the benefit of both self and others, you have caused us, the retinues, to ripen into the fruition of the three kayas. Therefore, for the benefit of sentient beings, we request you to remain in the world for a long time. We
