The mothers returned. Scattering white mustard seeds on the executioners caused them to be able to speak and walk. Previously, when the words of the master were reported to the king, great admiration arose in the king's heart. Like this and so on, some Nyingma people say that these accounts from the "Ba Xie" are untrue. But these are not untrue either. In the history of the "Oral Instruction Garland," the three letters of the king's oath, the history of "Hayagriva Very Secret Wrathful," and in many histories of the "Kama," similar things have occurred. Oh, and in the empty strikes of the Vajrakila of the Obran tradition, Langlab, Rongzom, and the Vajrakila of the Jo tradition, the history is told in the same way as above. In the letter of Je Tsongkhapa's testament, it also says, "May he reside for a long time and make the entire Tibetan region prosperous and happy." Later, due to the common karma of sentient beings, and the evil gods and demons of the black side entering the heart, and the ministers causing trouble, it was not accomplished. Therefore, it is said. So, what is it really like? Ascending from Mangyul, that was the master showing a manifestation to deceive the wicked ministers. Just as the patron and benefactor secretly discussed that the master would stay here until the king died, the master's actual body went to Gzhoto Tise, and to the dakini Yeshe Tsogyal, he spoke the Great Perfection Dakini Heart Essence, separating foolish meditation from conceptual thought, and directly established the Buddha's intention in the present moment. In the letter of the oath, it says, "Chimza Lhamo Tsen and Kharchen Tsogyal both went to practice from a young age, so there is no temple with their footprints." The reason cited above is also like that. This is the preparation for subduing the land of Samye, etc., which was done in the Tiger year, which is the Fire Male Tiger year. In the Tang annals, it is written as Earth Male Tiger year, which is a writing error. In any case, the way Tsogyal received the Dakini Heart Essence in the Tiger year is clearly recorded in the Dakini Heart Essence itself. Before that, there were seven descents of secret mantra. The first descent is a brief description of how the master Padmasambhava appeared. At that time, the king built Samye Monastery. The three-tiered top is in the shape of Mount Meru.

乌拉!夜叉上下日月。所有其他寺庙都像四大洲和小洲一样。周围有铁围山和八大佛塔等。根据唐朝史料记载,耗时五年;根据《巴协》记载,耗时十三年。最初,由菩提萨埵导师主持开光。有些人说是由寂护(Shantarakshita)主持开光。这并不矛盾,因为当时所有的大班智达都主持了开光。当时,许多人谈论莲花生大师住在修行场所。国王也像调查真假一样,迎请了他。大臣们心想,他可能无法亲自前来。导师前来,将金刚界坛城显现在空中,当开光的花朵散落时,里面的神都出来了。乌策(U-tse,主殿)的神们放下了手中的法器。国王害怕了,心想:现在进不去了。诸神绕着乌策三圈后,进入其中。他们像以前一样住在那里。所有人都看到守护门的忿怒尊放出火焰。国王也害怕了,心想:桑耶寺失火了吗?在觉姆林松(Jo-mo gling-gsum)散落鲜花,寺庙被光芒照亮。物品增多。闻到了以前从未闻过的香味。所有人都看到长出了莲花的茎。在圣观世音洲(Aryapala's Isle)散落鲜花,马头明王像发出了三次马的嘶鸣声,所有人都听到了。在空地上长出了以前没有的翠绿的竹子。在慈氏洲(Byams-pa gling)散落鲜花,许多神灵从云中下来供养。在文殊洲(Jampal gling)下起了花雨。降伏魔鬼的咒士洲(Dud-dul sngags-pa gling)中,所有人都看到佛陀充满天空,然后融入了里面的神灵。在沐浴洲(Khrus-khang gling)散落鲜花,所有人都听到那些神灵在说法。在禅定洲(Bsam-gtan gling)同时升起了太阳和月亮。在翻译洲(Sgra-bsgyur gling),所有的乐器都自动演奏。在白莲洲(Pe-dkar gling),诸神出来拿了鲜花,然后回到了里面。四个佛塔上,未经装饰的伞盖、幢幡和花环等装饰品自然而生。四个护法殿(Mgon-khang bzhi)散落鲜花,光芒四射,神像出来引起了骚动。四块石碑上散落着鲜花。

Ula! Yaksha above and below, sun and moon. All other temples are like the four continents and subcontinents. Surrounded by an iron fence and eight great stupas, etc. According to the Tang Dynasty records, it took five years; according to the Ba zhed, it took thirteen years. Initially, the abbot Bodhisattva performed the consecration. Some say that Shantarakshita performed the consecration. There is no contradiction, as all the great paṇḍitas who came at that time performed the consecration. At that time, many people talked about Padmasambhava staying in the practice places. The king also invited him as if investigating the truth. The ministers thought that he might not be able to come in person. The master came and manifested the mandala of Vajradhātu in the sky, and when the flowers of consecration scattered, the inner deities came out. The deities of the U-tse (main temple) dropped their hand implements. The king was frightened and thought: Now I cannot enter. The deities circumambulated the U-tse three times and then entered. They stayed there as before. Everyone saw the gate-guarding wrathful deity emitting flames. The king was also frightened and thought: Is Samye on fire? Flowers scattered in Jo-mo gling-gsum, and the temple was filled with light. Items increased. A fragrance never before smelled was emitted. Everyone saw the lotus stems growing. Flowers scattered in Aryapala's Isle, and the Hayagriva statue emitted three horse neighs, which everyone heard. Unprecedented green bamboo grew in the open space. Flowers scattered in Byams-pa gling, and many deities came down from the clouds to make offerings. Rain of flowers fell in Jampal gling. In Dud-dul sngags-pa gling, everyone saw the Buddha filling the sky, and then dissolving into the inner deities. Flowers scattered in Khrus-khang gling, and everyone heard those deities preaching the Dharma. In Bsam-gtan gling, the sun and moon rose simultaneously. In Sgra-bsgyur gling, all the musical instruments played automatically. In Pe-dkar gling, the deities came out, took flowers, and then returned inside. On the four stupas, decorations such as umbrellas, banners, and garlands of flowers appeared naturally without being attached. Flowers scattered in the four protector chapels (Mgon-khang bzhi), light radiated, and the statues came out, causing a commotion. Flowers scattered on the four stone pillars.

抛掷后,四只铜狗刺入四方并游荡。向铁围山抛掷鲜花,湿润的阿如拉的雨水下了三个小时,所有这些都变成了共同的景象。据说巴协派认为这是菩提萨埵论师所为。巴协的一份文件中说,寂护论师举行开光仪式时,这些事情就会发生。由于当时的开光仪式主持人都是圣者,所以一切都会如此显现。之后,论师化现到拉萨的昌珠寺等所有寺庙,重新举行开光仪式。在乌孜三层楼,当向一百零八位译师、君臣朋友三人等转大法轮时,王妃才邦扎和大臣们内心非常痛苦,商议后将国王请到克楚栋。王妃、香嘉擦拉囊、达拉鲁贡、赤昌拉洛等说道:陛下,我们心灰意冷,泪流满面。国王的心中存在这样的错误。父亲的财物都涂上了泥土。没有钱财,国王就会沦为平民。对南方尼泊尔边民的关心过于强烈。恶劣的边民会夺走国王的性命。说是出家人,却将奴仆提拔到高位。缘起错乱,国家有倾覆的危险。说是建立法律,却做边民的行为。藏族百姓无法随心所欲地享受安乐。我们这些大臣不被重视。如果不听劝告,外敌入侵时,就用佛法来制服吧!内部的间谍由出家的僧人来担任。我们这些大臣都各自离去。家犬跑到山上就成了野狼。如果认为国王和大臣齐聚一堂才显得英勇威武,就把这些边地的僧侣赶走吧!王妃说:父王陛下,您的心意被边民改变了。大臣们心灰意冷也是非常真实的。这个边地的恶咒师在我们父母之间制造不和。甚至会夺走国王的性命。以前连王妃卡钦扎和钦扎都被抢走了。现在要夺取王位也毫无疑问。君主没有大臣就无法成为国

After throwing, four copper dogs pierced and roamed in the four directions. By throwing flowers at the iron fence, the rain of wet Arura fell for three hours, and all of these became a common sight. It is said that the Ba Xie sect believes that this was done by the master Bodhisattva. One of the Ba Xie documents states that when the master Shantarakshita performed the consecration ceremony, these things would happen. Since all the consecration ceremony hosts at that time were noble beings, everything would appear in this way. After that, the master manifested in all the temples such as Lhasa's Tradruk Temple and performed the consecration ceremony again. In the three-story Utse, when the great wheel of Dharma was turned to the one hundred and eight translators, the three friends of the king and subjects, etc., Queen Tsepongza and the ministers were very distressed and consulted, and then invited the king to Khrochu Dong. The queen, Shang Gyatsa Lhanang, Takra Lugong, Khri Drang Lhalo, and others said: Your Majesty, we are discouraged and tearful. There is such a mistake in the king's mind. The father's wealth is all smeared with mud. If there is no wealth, the king will be reduced to a commoner. The concern for the southern Nepalese border people is too strong. The bad border people will take the king's life. Saying they are monks, they promote slaves to high positions. If the interdependence is wrong, there is a great danger of the country collapsing. Saying they are establishing laws, they act like border people. The Tibetan people cannot freely enjoy happiness. We ministers are not valued. If you do not listen to advice, when foreign enemies invade, use the Dharma to subdue them! Let the ordained monks be the internal spies. We ministers will all leave separately. If a domestic dog runs to the mountain, it becomes a wild wolf. If you think that the king and ministers gathering together is heroic and majestic, then drive away these monks from the border! The queen said: Father King, your mind has been changed by the border people. It is also very true that the ministers are discouraged. This evil mantra practitioner from the border is creating discord between our parents. He will even take the king's life. In the past, even Queen Kharchenza and Chimza were robbed. Now there is no doubt that he will seize the throne. A monarch without ministers cannot become a count

有什么办法可以统治?把所有边境的流浪者都驱逐到边境,让我们这些国王和大臣们都团结一心!国王非常沮丧,流下了眼泪。他说三天后答复,然后离开了。他心想:没有大臣就无法战胜外敌,这是真的。除此之外,像这样憎恨佛法,心里很不舒服。他又想:现在像莲花生大师这样的人住在这里,或许能阻止王后和大臣们的阻挠。于是,他去见莲花生大师,讲述了以前的事情。莲花生大师说:伟大的君主,从智慧和无明的自性光明中,过去每一位佛陀面前都出现过一个魔。您是护法的国王,所以大臣们才会变成魔。举例来说,智慧就像觉性自明的晴朗虚空,无明就像云和雾。由于胜义谛和世俗谛的差别,魔不能遮蔽佛陀的功德。对此,国王您自己保持良好的意愿非常重要。对大臣们和王后说,三天后我会盛情款待译师和班智达们,你们自己去沐浴吧!如果不能杀死他们,这些人的恶咒一定会缩短我们的寿命,所以以后不要再做这样的事,发誓并严守誓言。我会降伏大臣们的障碍。然后,国王对王后和大臣们说了这些话,他们非常高兴。按照国王所说的做了。三天后,国王在布扎金殿邀请译师和班智达们,并款待他们。王后和大臣们在太阳升起时派出了刽子手,所有的译师和班智达都变成了观世音菩萨,刽子手们也放弃了杀戮的念头,返回了。然后,中午派出了刽子手,所有人都变成了燃烧的珍宝。刽子手们被景象吸引,又返回了。傍晚派出刽子手时,译师和班智达们都变成了一位位的转轮圣王,每个人都有数不清的王后和大臣。

What methods are there to rule? Expel all the vagrants on the border to the border, and let us kings and ministers all unite in one mind! The king was very distressed and shed tears. He said he would reply in three days and then left. He thought to himself: It is true that without ministers, one cannot defeat foreign enemies. Apart from that, hating the Dharma like this made him feel very uncomfortable. He thought again: Now that someone like Guru Padmasambhava is here, perhaps he can prevent the obstruction of the queen and ministers. So, he went to see Guru Padmasambhava and told him the previous story. Guru Padmasambhava said: Great sovereign, from the self-radiance of wisdom and ignorance, in the past, a demon appeared before each Buddha. You are a Dharma-protecting king, so the ministers have descended as demons. For example, wisdom is like the clear sky of self-illuminating awareness, and ignorance is like clouds and fog. Because of the difference between ultimate truth and conventional truth, demons cannot obscure the qualities of the Buddha. Therefore, it is very important for the king himself to maintain good intentions. Tell the ministers and the queen that in three days I will treat the translators and pandits with great respect, and you yourselves should take a bath! If you cannot kill them, these people's evil curses will surely shorten our lives, so do not do such things in the future, take an oath and keep it strictly. I will subdue the obstacles of the ministers. Then, the king said these words to the queen and the ministers, and they were very happy. They did as the king said. Three days later, the king invited the translators and pandits to the Golden Hall in Butsal and entertained them. When the queen and ministers sent executioners at sunrise, all the translators and pandits turned into Avalokiteśvara, and the executioners also abandoned the thought of killing and returned. Then, when executioners were sent at noon, everyone turned into burning jewels. The executioners were distracted by the spectacle and returned again. When executioners were sent in the evening, the translators and pandits all became individual universal monarchs, each with countless queens and ministers.
