He entrusted the treasure to Ras Lha Je, spoke of the lineage of rebirths, and revealed the benefits of seven lifetimes. In the Tsangtang Turquoise Temple, he liberated the self-arisen queen by guiding her. At Shel Drak, he gave oral instructions to three fortunate women. He subdued the magic of Peker, bound him by oath, and performed practices and punishments. He spoke and, on the bank of the Tsangpo River, answered questions from the sage radiating purple light, bound him by oath, and performed healing and curses. He also bound the nagas by oath and spoke of the secret instructions for subjugation. He went to the summit of Samye and gave loving advice to the prince. Contemplating going to the land of the rakshasas, he sent an advance party to Mangyul Gungtang. On the tenth day of the monkey month in the monkey year, he set out from Samye and, at the Zungkar Stone Stupa Square, spoke to the king and subjects about the ultimate meaning of the Dharma and the yoga of the guru. He went to Lhasa, gave oral instructions, and bid farewell at Gungtang. He gave oral instructions and general advice to the king and subjects, khenpos, acharyas, mantra practitioners, doctors, astrologers, and male and female patrons respectively. From the sky, amidst swirling red and yellow clouds and rainbows, he rode a horse named Gyalwa that had appeared miraculously, and again sang a song of love to the king and subjects. Four heroes led the horse, and he departed swirling in rainbows. Then, the king and subjects, with faithful devotion, looked at the sunlight and saw things as small as crows, pigeons, sparrows, bees, and moths, and then they could not see them with their eyes. In the visions of some who had purified their karma, they saw him passing through the island of Sinhala and the land of the rakshasas, residing on Ngayab Palri in the form of the rakshasa king Tötreng Tsal, teaching the sacred Dharma to the rakshasas, and so they prostrated many times. The king and subjects then returned to their own places. They engaged in teaching and practice of the Dharma taught by the master and respectfully worshipped the Buddha's teachings. Thus, there are various accounts of the length of time that the great Guru Padmasambhava stayed in Tibet, but here the biography is compiled in accordance with the Yangtang Catalogue alone. It is also said that he stayed for one hundred and eleven years. Likewise, the biography is only a brief summary of the main points and cannot be written in detail, so please consult other sources for more information. In short, however detailed or brief the biography of this great master may be, it should be used as nourishment for faith and devotion, and prayers should be made.
