It is just like that. The root downfalls are initially root downfalls, so downfalls and gross offenses are not considered. The branch downfalls are called gross offenses, and one should understand the order of their severity. Some have not understood the meaning of tantra and are controlled by afflictions in this life. The Vinaya and so on are very difficult, how can they be kept? They have not gone beyond the law of decay. This tantra is eating meat and drinking alcohol, taking life without being given, engaging in sexual activity, lying, etc., thinking that anything is allowed. Regarding this, it is also said that the four roots are used in tantra, which is also because of the place, thought, and behavior, as well as the ultimate great means, and the learned, and the many, and the special, etc., as mentioned above, because the key is immeasurable, so it is used. If it is used according to the literal meaning, then even the monk Tarpa Nagpo, who used the four roots, is born in the realm of demons, because he is attached to the four things. The body is dressed in sacred clothes, but the mind goes to evil. It is said like that. Moreover, if one does not know that the outer world of vessels and contents appears but is without self-nature, or does not know that it is a palace, and does not know that this body is also the nature of the Buddha, then one violates the vows of knowledge. Even if one has an impure thought about feces and urine, one violates the voluntary vows, etc., which are inconceivable. Therefore, it is very important to understand clearly and without confusion without falling into blindness. Jowo Je said: For tantra, the door of downfall is inconceivable. For example, even a vase, if it is considered an ordinary thing, will become a downfall. If one wipes a mandala on a very large area of dust and places it, it is like dust immediately gathers. Like this, it seems difficult to quickly achieve Buddhahood. (Jowo Je) replied: There is a teaching like chasing hundreds of birds with one stone, the practice and recitation of Vajrasattva exists for tantric practitioners. Just like it is said. Third, examining the manner of permission and prohibition: Losing control over everything, if it is done by others, in order to generate great meaning, for firmness and need, and to gain ability, permission and command, and obstruction, there is no fault, this is said in the Ornament of the Essence. Similarly, it is said in the Root Downfall Confusion Confession:

关于无过失的指示:关于生病和上师的事业,这样说:我因生病而痛苦吗?或者做这样的上师事业,应该如何行事呢?从“请问如何安乐行持”开始,如果允许就没有过失。如果上师本人感到高兴,那么无论如何行事,从第一条根本戒的角度来说,都没有过失。否则,应当谨慎行事。如根本堕第一品中所说,应使众人知晓。对于誓言的守护和约束,以日三次、夜三次的忆念和正知。如此日夜六时中,于舍取誓言之处精勤观察。如吉祥律仪根本续云:若欲成就胜悉地,生命舍弃亦容易,与死同赴亦容易,恒常守护诸誓言。如是宣说之理。第四,指示忏悔之理:即日三座、夜三座,六分之一称为一座之时量,若过六分,则称一座之时量已过。一日一月一年二年过,违犯、失坏、已过、毁坏,这些如果从内心忏悔,则可恢复,否则后果严重。如誓言安立中所说:一般而言,从誓言的差别来看,无论何时违越誓言,如果未超过一天,则向所缘境忏悔,即可恢复。如果“失坏”未超过一个月,则以强烈的后悔心忏悔。如果“已过”誓言,经过数年,若未中断忏悔,则可恢复。一年或三年内,称为“誓言毁坏”,如果非常强烈,则可以恢复。如果超过三年,则可能可以恢复,也可能无法恢复。如果接受,则两者都会烧毁。必须恒常承受地行和痛苦。如是说。关于实际的忏悔方法,总的来说,获得七种灌顶,对每一位本尊,念诵三万六千遍即可。也就是说,无论获得哪种灌顶,对每一位本尊念诵三万六千遍,即可成就。特别而言,如果获得瓶灌和秘密灌顶后失坏,则首先应修持断法。之后,进入寂静处接受四种灌顶。如果获得上面两种灌顶后失坏,首先要修持金刚萨埵的观修和念诵,以及火供和会供等。

Regarding the indication of blamelessness: Concerning illness and the activities of the guru, it is said: Am I suffering from illness? Or, doing such activities of the guru, how should I act? Starting from "Please ask how to act comfortably," if permission is granted, there is no fault. If the guru himself is pleased, then in whatever way one acts, from the perspective of the first root vow, there is no fault. Otherwise, one should act cautiously. As explained in the context of the first root downfall, everyone should be aware of this. For the protection and restraint of vows, with mindfulness and awareness, three times during the day and three times during the night. Thus, in the six periods of day and night, diligently examine the places of abandoning and adopting vows. As it is said in the Glorious Root Tantra of Samvara: If you desire the supreme accomplishment, it is easy to give up your life, it is easy to go to the same place as death, always protect your vows. This is according to the manner of what was said. Fourth, indicating the manner of confession: That is, three sessions during the day and three sessions during the night, one-sixth is called a session's time. If six parts have passed, it is said that the session's time has passed. One day, one month, one year, two years have passed. Violation, degeneration, transgression, and destruction, these, if confessed from the heart, can be restored, otherwise the consequences are severe. As it is said in the Establishment of Vows: In general, from the difference of vows, whatever fault is committed by transgressing the time, if it does not exceed one day, then confess to the object of focus, and it can be restored. If "degeneration" does not exceed one month, then confess with strong regret. If the vow is "transgressed" and years have passed, if confession is not interrupted, then it can be restored. Within one or three years, it is called "vow destruction," if it is very strong, then it can be restored. If it has passed more than three years, then it may or may not be restored. If accepted, both will be burned. One must always endure earth-walking and suffering. Thus it is said. Regarding the actual method of confession, in general, having obtained the seven empowerments, for each deity, practice by reciting thirty-six thousand times. That is, whichever empowerment is obtained, by reciting thirty-six thousand times for each deity, it will be mastered. In particular, if the vase and secret empowerments are obtained and then degenerated, one should first practice the severance practice. After that, enter a quiet place and receive the four empowerments. If the two higher empowerments are obtained and then degenerated, one must first practice the visualization and recitation of Vajrasattva, as well as fire offerings and tsog offerings, etc.

Having confessed the broken vows and made it a suitable vessel, one should again enter the mandala and receive empowerment and vows from the lama. As it says in the Tantra of the First Excellent One: If a root downfall occurs, then again in this mandala, enter into the cause of purification. Again, having received permission, when going into the assembly, the name of the elder is 'young one.' And in the fourteen root downfalls, beginning with taking refuge in the Three Jewels, the vows such as bodhicitta are: If I want benefit for myself, the mantra practitioner should strive to keep them. Thus it is. Lower empowerments, the wisdom empowerment, word empowerment, letter empowerment, having obtained them, the generation stage, and the immutable discipline, the completion stage. Other than the blessing of one's own continuum, others cannot purify. Having meditated on the two stages, by the order of blessing one's own mindstream, as it says in Vajra Clear Light: The word 'samaya, samaya,' it is not something separate, one's own mind is the samaya. All phenomena that appear, appear as self-aware, free from all elaborations. Whatever appears, for as long as it exists, is self-awareness. No matter where the demon turns or goes, it is impossible to go beyond the meaning of the essence. The nature is the great samaya. In that way, purify. In terms of time, if one violates, one confesses with the tsokhor; if one breaks, one compensates with possessions; if one exceeds the time limit, one compensates with children, wives, wealth, etc.; if one destroys, it is said that one revives with one's own life. This is also said in the tantra that arranges the samayas: If one violates, one confesses with the wheel of the assembly; if one breaks, one compensates with one's own possessions; if one exceeds the time limit, one compensates with children and wives, and relatives, body, speech, and mind, and possessions; if one destroys, one compensates with one's own life. Thus it is. Furthermore, in the Ornament of Essence, the ritual for restoration is: Confession in the assembly field, the mantra mudra of severance, and burning in the fire of tummo through the order of washing, and non-conceptual meditation and receiving the four empowerments, five, entering the assembly and the marks of the deity, and offering the mandala and doing stupa activities, and fire puja and giving torma, and reciting secret mantras and profound contemplation, and saving lives, reading the teachings, relying on the lama, and self-entry, recitation of the hundred-syllable mantra of the Victorious Ones at auspicious times, the Sutra of the Three Heaps, Vajrasattva, the lama, and meditating on the yoga of subtle bindus is how to restore. Thus, in the Tantra of the Ornament of the Vajra Essence, among the twenty-five methods of restoration that were spoken, the first is accumulating merit.
