Protecting beings from snares, redeeming honey, freeing from traps, giving gifts to hunters, benefiting the sick, saving lives from weapons, etc., saving lives, etc., and as an antidote to sins, reciting profound teachings such as the praised "Great Liberation Sutra" and the "Immaculate Confession Tantra"; relying on the lama like a wish-fulfilling jewel on the crown of the head; contemplating the Samaya Vajra Accomplishing Father and Mother in the heart, thinking that the stream of nectar descends from the heart's seed syllable, thereby purifying sins, and preceding it with the recitation of Om Ah Kham Hum (Tibetan: ༀ་ཨཱཿཁཾ་ཧཱུྃ, Sanskrit Devanagari:, Sanskrit Romanized: oṃ āḥ khaṃ hūṃ, Literal Chinese meaning: Om Ah Kham Hum); taking self-entry into either the body mandala or the external mandala; circumambulating the blessed support, or staying in its presence, reciting five thousand or so of the hundred-syllable mantra, which is the heart essence of the Buddhas of the three times; on auspicious days such as the eighth and fifteenth of the waxing moon, reciting many dharani mantras praised for purifying sins; reciting the "Sutra of the Three Heaps" six times day and night; visualizing the lama Vajrasattva on the crown of the head, and reciting the hundred-syllable mantra with the intention of cleansing sins; visualizing oneself as the innate deity, visualizing the lama Vajradhara above the crown of the head, clarifying the three syllables in the three places, and performing mental recitation; clarifying oneself as the deity and clarifying the channels and chakras, practicing melting and descending, which is the yoga of bindus; in the center of the five chakras, focusing the mind on clarifying the subtle emblems of the five Buddha families, practicing the subtle breath control yoga of the five protectors, these are all methods of healing. Fourth, healing with the common bath of the three yogas, as stated in the "Elephant's Powerful Entry" Tantra: The common bath of yoga, repentance purifies like space, because repentance cannot purify, therefore practice it. That is to say, extracting a key point from the "Elephant's Powerful Entry" Tantra, as stated in the "Kalpa Fragment Tantra" and the "Immaculate Confession Tantra," for yogis who have entered the door of the three yogas, in order to complete deficiencies and purify conceptual thoughts and sins, relying on the extraordinary common bath, the king of all repentance, the Naraka Dongtruk's instructions, performing the completion of external resources, the completion of the inner aggregates' support, and the completion and confession of the secret bodhicitta, on days such as the eighth and fifteenth, from that time on.

据说,所有的违犯和破损都会被清除。即使没有完全做到这一点,如果经常将仪轨的清单作为誓言,并通过忏悔,所有的违犯和破损都会被清除。因此,无论如何都要努力实践。正如所说:谁对幻化寂怒之坛城的本尊顶礼膜拜,所有的违犯和破损都会被净化,甚至五无间罪也能被清除。即使身处地狱,也能被抛弃,被称为持明者胜利的净土。还有,仅仅是瑜伽男女听到坛城本尊的名号,就能弥补根本和支分的誓言违犯和破损。如此忏悔,简而言之,直到在梦中出现上师和本尊给予认可,或者洗澡,或者穿白色衣服,或者登上大山的顶峰,或者日月升起等罪业清净的征兆之前,都要努力进行具备四力的忏悔。此外,对于圆满的根本堕罪,在忏悔清净的征兆出现后,再次进入坛城接受灌顶,这是一个特别之处。第二,未进行补救的过患是:如果未忏悔,今生会因不悦意而受苦,来世会生于名为金刚地狱之处,生于无间且无与伦比之地。正如所说,如果不对所犯的错误如法忏悔,其过患是不可思议的。如果根本誓言破损,所有的修行都会颠倒。如果身誓破损,身体会生起各种疾病。如果语誓破损,语言会变得口吃或哑巴等。如果意誓破损,心会变得疯狂或被附体。今生会因各种不悦意之事物如磁铁吸铁般聚集而受苦。如《秘密藏续》所说:如果根本誓言破损,所有的修行都会颠倒。各种不悦意的果报,即使不想要也会聚集。还有,如果支分誓言破损,会成为获得两种成就的障碍。这两者都会导致来世生于名为金刚地狱之处,遭受无法超越的痛苦,从而在世间轮回中不断转生。《秘密藏续》

It is said that all violations and breakages will be cleared. Even if this is not fully achieved, if one constantly regards the list of rituals as a vow and confesses, all violations and breakages will be cleared without exception. Therefore, one should strive to practice in every way. As it is said: Whoever prostrates to the deities of the mandala of illusion, peace, and wrath, all violations and breakages will be purified, and even the five heinous sins will be cleansed. Even if one is in hell, it will be abandoned, and it will be known as the pure land of the victorious vidyadharas. Furthermore, merely hearing the names of those deities of the mandala by male and female yogis will fulfill all violations and breakages of the root and branch vows. Thus, in short, until signs of purification of sins and downfalls appear in dreams, such as the guru and deity giving approval, or taking a bath, or wearing white clothes, or climbing to the top of a great mountain, or the rising of the sun and moon, one should strive to perform confession with the complete four powers. Moreover, for a complete root downfall, it is special to enter the mandala again and receive empowerment after signs of purification through confession have appeared. Secondly, the faults of not making amends are: If one does not confess, one will suffer in this life from unpleasantness, and in the next life, one will be born in a place called the Vajra Hell, born in a place of uninterrupted and incomparable suffering. As it is said, the faults of not confessing errors properly are inconceivable. If the root vow is broken, all practices will be reversed. If the body vow is broken, various diseases will arise in the body. If the speech vow is broken, speech will become stuttering or dumb, etc. If the mind vow is broken, the mind will become mad or possessed. In this life, one will suffer from the accumulation of various unpleasant things like iron to a magnet. As the Guhyagarbha Tantra says: If the root vow is broken, all practices will be reversed. Various unpleasant fruits will accumulate even if one does not want them. Furthermore, if the branch vow is broken, it will become an obstacle to obtaining the two types of siddhis. Both of these will cause one to be born in the next life in a place called the Vajra Hell, suffering unbearable torment, and thus continuously be reborn in the cycle of existence. The Guhyagarbha

论:如果支分誓言失坏,则无果且堕恶趣。如《光明经》云:根全部失坏的邪淫者,不勤于救治,彼堕金刚地狱,所有其他地狱的痛苦加在一起,也比不上它的百万分之一。如是罪大恶极的根本堕罪者,不仅自己失坏,也使他人遭受同等失坏的过患。如《总集经》云:如是腐烂的牛奶,以腐烂使所有牛奶都腐烂一样,一个瑜伽士失坏,使所有瑜伽士都不悦。不仅如此,梦中造罪,或者观察他人说什么,或者过度取悦他人而产生的附带失坏,如果不立即忏悔,也会变成大罪。如《大庄严经》云:对上师和亲近眷属,金刚兄弟姐妹,即使是恶语相向的一句话,也不应以暗示或实物来表达。如果即使在梦中发生,也应以意忏悔。身语意所造之罪,如果因不记得而放纵,不忏悔,则会被视为愚蠢而堕入地狱。如《金刚心庄严经》云:从那以后,咒师完全逝去,必定会遇到魔鬼,疾病和痛苦会增加,会堕入无间隙的铁室地狱。粗大的堕罪过患,也应知与此相同。如是虽然说根本堕和支分堕两者都一样会转生到地狱,但痛苦的大小和受苦时间的长短有很大差别。第七,不失坏誓言而如法守护的利益是:不失坏,长久以往十六世,或者快的话,此生或临终中阴时,获得八种共同成就和八种自在,获得具有七种结合的最胜悉地,因此自他二利任运成就。也就是说,总的来说,誓言是产生和安住一切功德的基础。如《总集经》云:如是肥沃的土地,依赖于播种的种子,果实成熟,如是维持众生生命一样,安住于此誓言,无上菩提成熟。

Furthermore, if the branch vows are broken, there will be no result and one will fall into the lower realms. As the 'Clear Light Sutra' says: 'The immoral one whose roots are completely damaged, does not strive to remedy it, they will fall into the Vajra Hell. The suffering of all other hells combined is not even one millionth of that.' Such a greatly sinful person with root downfalls not only harms themselves but also causes others to suffer the same harm. As the 'Collected Sutra' says: 'Just as rotten milk, through its rottenness, makes all the milk rotten, one yogi who has degenerated makes all yogis displeased.' Moreover, even if one commits a fault in a dream, or examines what others say, or incurs an incidental downfall by excessively pleasing others, it becomes a great fault if not immediately confessed. As the 'Great Array Sutra' says: 'To the lama and close attendants, Vajra brothers and sisters, even a single word of abuse should not be expressed through hints or objects. If it occurs even in dreams, it should be confessed in mind. Actions done by body, speech, and mind, if one becomes indulgent without remembering, and does not confess, one will be regarded as foolish and go to hell.' As the 'Vajra Heart Ornament Sutra' says: 'Thereafter, when the mantra practitioner has completely passed away, they will certainly encounter demons, diseases and suffering will increase, and they will go to the uninterrupted Iron Chamber Hell. The faults of gross transgressions should also be known to be the same as this.' Although it is said that both root and branch downfalls cause rebirth in hell in a similar way, there is a great difference in the magnitude of suffering and the length of time one suffers. Seventh, the benefit of protecting the vows properly without breaking them is: Without breaking them, in the long run, for sixteen lifetimes, or quickly, in this life or at the time of death in the bardo, one will obtain the eight common siddhis and eight powers, and obtain the supreme siddhi endowed with seven unions. Therefore, the benefit for oneself and others is spontaneously accomplished. That is to say, in general, vows are the basis for the arising and abiding of all qualities. As the 'General Sutra' says: 'Just as on fertile ground, relying on the seeds that are sown, the fruits ripen, and in the same way, they sustain the lives of beings. When one abides in this vow, which is the basis of all dharmas, unsurpassed enlightenment is fully ripened.'

因此,是善良的命脉的圣者啊。就这样。特别是,即使在当下,所有心中的愿望都能如实实现,令众人满意,获得世间大天神的尊敬,诸佛和菩萨勇士瑜伽母们视为子嗣和兄弟般加持,进入如来本身的行境,从而逐渐进入持明者的地道。如《幻化根本续》所说: 执持胜者之殊胜明,受世间主和眷属敬,圣者殊胜与圣者之,视为子嗣兄弟而加持,进入善逝本身之境,融入无惧普贤之境。 又如《三昧耶三句》所说: 安住于金刚誓言中,彼之愿望皆成就,诸神亦恒常守护之,胜者至胜连同诸子,如子般思念行圣事,禅定功德不可量,普贤种姓之圣者成。 如此。 假设此生未能精进于二次第之道,但若誓言未失,无论多久,最长十六世,或七世,定能与二次第之道相遇而解脱。若以极快而言,若誓言清净,且努力于道次第,则利根者此生即可获得双运金刚持之果位。中根者,若此生已现证譬喻光明,则临终时可转化为意义光明,从而升华为有学双运之身。若已现证意义光明,则临终时与基础时之光明相融,从而显现真实之边际,升华为无学双运之身。中等之下者,亦可在中阴界,以自己的修持和对上师的虔诚,以及对清净刹土的忆念,于自性化身刹土中解脱。彼等之时,虽有无量可得之功德,然可归纳为二种殊胜成就。共同成就中,小者可得八大事业。如《喜金刚》中所说,可归纳为: 权势与神通,敌众

Therefore, it is the holy one who holds the life force of virtue. Thus it is. In particular, even in the present moment, all the wishes of the mind are fulfilled as they are, pleasing to all, obtaining the respect of the great gods of the world, being blessed by the Buddhas and Bodhisattva heroes and yoginis as sons and brothers, and entering the realm of activity of the Thus-Gone One himself, thereby gradually entering the path of the Vidyadharas. As it is said in the Root Tantra of Illusion: "He who holds the supreme knowledge of the Victorious Ones, Is revered by the lord of the world and his retinue. The supreme holy one and the holy ones, Are blessed as sons and brothers. He enters the realm of the Sugata himself, And merges into the fearless Samantabhadra." And as it is said in the Three Statements of Commitment: "He abides in the Vajra commitment of secret mantra. All his wishes are fulfilled, And the gods also always protect him. The Victorious Ones, the supreme Victors, together with their sons, Think of him as a son and perform holy deeds. The qualities of Samadhi are immeasurable, And the holy one of the Samantabhadra lineage is accomplished." Thus it is. If one is unable to strive on the path of the two stages in this life, but the commitment is not broken, no matter how long it takes, at most sixteen lifetimes, or seven lifetimes, one will definitely meet the path of the two stages and be liberated. If it is done very quickly, if the commitment is completely pure, and one strives on the stages of the path, then the keen-minded will attain the state of union Vajradhara in this life. Those of middling faculties, if they have realized the example luminosity in this life, will transform into the meaning luminosity at the time of death, and rise as the body of the union of learning. If one has realized the meaning luminosity, then at the time of death, it merges with the luminosity of the ground-time, thereby manifesting the ultimate reality, and rising as the body of the non-learning union. Even the lowest of the middling ones, in the intermediate state of existence, by their own practice and devotion to the Guru, and by remembering the pure land, will be liberated by exhaling in the field of the self-nature Nirmanakaya. At those times, although there are infinite qualities to be obtained, they can be summarized into two supreme accomplishments. Among the common accomplishments, the lesser one can obtain the eight great activities. As it is said in the Hevajra, it can be summarized as: Power and magic, enemy hosts
