Having seen those who were calling out, suffering, and calling out names, I thought, "Alas, my child, am I about to die?" Alas! What should I do now?" A sudden, intense burning sensation arose in my heart, and at the same time, I felt like a fish thrown onto the sand, or like butter placed on the sand in summer. The iron Shalmali mountain was filled with various weapons. Being on the path of blades, having arrived near them, I said to the weeping ones, "I am here, do not weep." But they did not perceive it, and only came to the foot of that mountain. Having arrived there, the weapons were dripping with flesh and blood, and while suffering, I saw the weeping ones coming to the foot of the mountain again. Again, I was tormented by the suffering of arriving there. Then, thinking that I should search for a body, I felt as if I were squeezing into all the caves, and this vision lasted for twenty-one days. Thus it is said. From the Secret Essence of the All-Good Mother, the Clear and Blazing Sun Tantra, the Key Treasury of Secret Mantras, the chapter explaining the appearance of the intermediate state of existence for ordinary individuals, the one hundred and thirty-third chapter. ཨེ་ཀ་ཙ་ཏི་ (Tibetan, Devanagari, Romanized Sanskrit, Literal Chinese meaning). O Ekajati, chief of all dakinis, great sovereign of karma, listen! When the appearances of those in the intermediate state of existence arise, those who have more virtuous karma and greater pride will feel as if they have entered a white light without radiance, as if they have entered a celestial palace, and thus enter the womb of a deva and are born as a deva. Their negative karma is purified, and the teacher of the devas will teach the outer Dharma, and the guru of the devas will bestow the inner empowerment, and they will be liberated. If they are not purified, they will fall into hell, and samsara will have no end. Alas! In the blue light without radiance, feeling as if they have entered clouds and mist, those who have more jealousy will be born as asuras. Their negative karma is purified, and the teacher of the asuras will teach the outer Dharma, and they will receive the inner empowerment from the guru of the asuras, and they will be liberated. If they are not purified, they will be the same as devas. Alas! Those who have more desire will see red and green light, feeling as if they have entered a beautiful house, and thus enter the womb of their parents and are born as humans. Their negative karma is purified, and they will receive the outer empowerment from the teachers of humans. They will receive the empowerment of the secret mantra of the result from the gurus of humans, and thus be liberated. Alas! Those who have more sinful karma and more delusion will see yellow light, or like darkness, and enter narrow caves.

或者认为，当感觉自己进入岩洞中时，便会转生为旁生。当业障清净后，旁生的导师们会宣说外在的佛法。旁生的上师们获得果秘密咒语的灌顶后，便能解脱。唉！那些罪孽深重、吝啬的人，在昏暗的光芒中，感觉自己进入了树桩、空房子或深邃的土洞中，便会转生为饿鬼。当业障清净后，饿鬼的导师们会宣说因的佛法。饿鬼的上师们会给予果秘密咒语的灌顶，从而获得解脱。唉！那些罪孽极其深重，违犯誓言、戒律和学处，以及嗔恨心强烈的人，在昏暗的光芒中，感觉自己进入了岩石被水冲击的地方，或者腐烂的泥潭中，便会以幻化的方式堕入地狱，感受痛苦。当恶业清净后，地狱的导师会宣说因的佛法。从地狱的上师那里获得果秘密咒语的灌顶后，便能解脱。业未尽者，还会前往其他六道，解脱遥遥无期。唉，听着！那时，将会看到各自的父母在行男女之事。那时，这种记忆会变得七倍清晰，六种追忆会显现。仅仅忆念三宝、上师或本尊的精髓，而不执着于欲望和贪恋，便能舍弃化身，并在报身上获得解脱。甚至必定会在法身原始清净的境界中获得解脱。唉！关于入胎的窍诀是：当六道的父母在行男女之事时，不要产生贪恋和嗔恨，而要忆念一种厌离的觉知。以极大的热情冲入天神和上师父母，以及高贵的种姓之间行男女之事的场所，从而延续善业，转生于高贵的种姓中，并不断提升，最终获得解脱。唉！听着，业的巨大力量！忆念这些业是极其困难的，例如水向下流淌是普遍的，而向上流动则很少。对于普通人来说，情况是这样的：当恶业的意像感觉自己的身体和习气被抛弃在虚空中时，会出现五天的天空景象。然后，当感觉身体被压在地下时，会出现五天的中阴景象。然后，在被风吹走和抬升的景象中，风的中阴

Or, thinking they have entered a cave, they will be born as animals. When their karma is purified, the teachers of the animals will teach the outer Dharma. The gurus of the animals, having received the empowerment of the fruit secret mantra, will be liberated. Alas! Those with great sins and miserliness, in the dim light, feeling they have entered a tree stump, an empty house, or a deep earth cave, will be born as hungry ghosts. When their karma is purified, the teachers of the hungry ghosts will teach the Dharma of the cause. The gurus of the hungry ghosts will bestow the empowerment of the fruit secret mantra, and they will be liberated. Alas! Those with extremely heavy sins, who have broken vows, precepts, and trainings, and who have great hatred, in the dim light, feeling they have entered a place where water strikes rocks, or a swamp of rotting mud, will be miraculously born in hell, experiencing suffering. When their evil karma is purified, the teachers of hell will teach the Dharma of the cause. Having received the empowerment of the fruit secret mantra from the gurus of hell, they will be liberated. Those whose karma is not exhausted will also go to the other six realms, and there will be no end to liberation. Alas, listen! At that time, one will see one's own parents engaging in sexual union. At that time, such memory will become seven times clearer, and six recollections will arise. Merely remembering the essence of the Three Jewels, the guru, or the yidam, and not being attached to desire and craving, one will exhale the emanation body and be liberated into the enjoyment body. Indeed, one will certainly be liberated in the realm of the Dharma body, primordial purity. Alas! The instruction on entering the womb is this: when the parents of the six realms are engaging in sexual union, do not generate attachment or hatred, but remember a single awareness of renunciation. With great enthusiasm, rush into the place where the deities and guru parents, as well as noble lineages, are engaging in sexual union, thereby continuing the thread of good karma, being born into a noble lineage, and continually rising higher, eventually attaining liberation. Alas! Listen to the great power of karma! Remembering these karmas is extremely difficult, just as water flowing downwards is common, while flowing upwards is rare. For ordinary people, it is like this: when the mental image of evil karma feels that their body and habitual tendencies have been abandoned in space, the appearance of the sky will arise for five days. Then, when they feel their body being pressed under the earth, the bardo appearance will arise for five days. Then, in the appearance of being carried and lifted by the wind, the wind bardo

因此，五七日，即二十五日时，会出现大的中阴。之后在圆满的黑暗中停留七天，便会堕入恶道，主要取决于之前的无身业果。总的来说，在有中阴时，因阎罗王的恐惧而停留五天；在有中阴时，停留二十一天；在五大的中阴时，停留二十五天；在黑暗的洲际中阴时，停留七天。这五十八天是死者的日子。唉！在此期间，如果以善业为引导，无论大小、好坏，都来自于动机、思想、事物、田地、回向和清净的愿望，就能从巨大的迷惑和痛苦的痛苦，即三恶道中解脱出来，并能转生到天界。此外，慈悲的喇嘛关闭六道之门，将亡者投生为本尊之子，或者投生为化身，或者通过原始清净将其安置于地等，有许多方法可以获得自力和他力的解脱。请铭记于心，努力为生者和死者，为迁识、系解脱、认识和牵引转生而努力。唉！众生的业力是如此恶劣，与显现为敌，记忆力如此微弱，六根如此善于诱惑，欲望如此浪费，轮回如此令人愉快，我执如此强烈，我执的道路如此狭窄，习气如此难以消除，恶业如此难以转变，恶身如此罪恶，三界如同坚固的堡垒，二元对立如此善于争辩，贪执如此根深蒂固，因此要努力寻找扭转轮回的方法。唉玛霍！请珍惜并展示这从生死轮回中解脱出来的方法！如是说。从普贤王如来空明炽燃太阳密续密藏中，讲述了有中阴时解脱方法的分类，以及轮回六道方式的章节，第一百三十四。

Thus, on the fifth seventh day, that is, the twenty-fifth day, the great bardo will occur. After that, staying for seven days in the complete darkness, one will fall into the lower realms, mainly depending on the previous disembodied karmic results. In general, in the existence bardo, one stays for five days due to the fear of Yama; in the existence bardo, one stays for twenty-one days; in the bardo of the five elements, one stays for twenty-five days; in the bardo of the dark continent, one stays for seven days. These fifty-eight days are the days of the deceased. Alas! During this time, if one is guided by virtuous deeds, whether great or small, good or bad, arising from motivation, thought, things, fields, dedication, and pure aspirations, one can be liberated from the great delusion and the suffering of suffering, that is, the three lower realms, and can be reborn in the heavens. Furthermore, the compassionate lama closes the doors of the six realms, casting the deceased as the son of the yidam, or casting them as an emanation, or placing them on the ground through primordial purity, etc. There are many methods to obtain liberation through self-power and other-power. Please keep this in mind and strive for the benefit of the living and the dead, for transference of consciousness, attached liberation, recognition, and pulling rebirth. Alas! The karma of sentient beings is so evil, opposing appearances, memory is so weak, the six senses are so good at seduction, desires are so wasteful, samsara is so delightful, ego is so strong, the path of ego is so narrow, habitual tendencies are so difficult to eliminate, evil karma is so difficult to transform, the evil body is so sinful, the three realms are like a strong fortress, dualistic clinging is so good at arguing, attachment is so deep-rooted, therefore, strive to find a way to reverse samsara. Emaho! Please cherish and show this method of liberation from the cycle of birth and death! Thus it is said. From the Secret Treasury of the All-Good Mother, the Clear and Blazing Sun Tantra, the chapter explaining the classification of methods of liberation in the existence bardo, and the manner of cycling through the six realms, the one hundred and thirty-fourth.

From the knees down, even when scorched, they do not want to die, and they suffer without being able to escape for a kalpa. The so-called mire of corpses, because the mire of impurities, urine, and feces submerges below the knees, many iron-beaked worms devour all flesh and bones, suffering without being able to escape, their lifespan lasting for one intermediate kalpa. Furthermore, the path of razors is where all paths become crossed with razor edges, all limbs are cut, and they suffer, their lifespan lasting for one kalpa. Furthermore, the forest with sword-leaf blades is where all forests turn into swords, and upon entering, the head and body are all cut, and when ascending and descending Mount Shalmali, touching it causes the head and body to separate, etc., suffering, their lifespan lasting for one kalpa. The ephemeral ones are those who experience continuous suffering every day of their lives. The ephemeral surrounding hells are divided into five types: the pit of raging fire, the river of ashes, the mire of corpses, the path of razors, and the forest of swords. This is a description of the hot hells, so listen well! The so-called Reviving Hell is where they are squeezed between mountains, goats, sheep, and various heads, feeling the pain of becoming like paper, and then wishing for the mountain to split open and return to its original state. The Black Line Hell is the suffering of being cut after drawing lines on the abdomen and back. The Crushing Hell is the suffering of being placed on an iron anvil and having an iron hammer fall from the sky, striking the crown of the head. The Howling Hell is where they are locked in a burning iron house, with piles of coal stacked in all directions, and iron-made, perforated rooms move back and forth, blown by the wind, causing the body to burn like grease. Furthermore, the Great Howling Hell is where the body is locked in a two-story iron house and burned, crying out in agony because they do not want to die. The pain of heat is the suffering of being lifted between burning iron mountains and thrown into a pit of raging fire. The Great Heat Hell is where they are burned in the fire of the end of a kalpa. The Uninterrupted Hell is where they are locked between two red-hot copper plates, boiled in boiling copper water, and the hell wardens stir them with ashes, causing suffering.
