English

English version Cut off the tips of two fingers. The materials used should contain milky sap, such as mulberry and paper mulberry trees. Also, use cheese, ghee, honey, and three white foods (rice, flour, milk) and seven kinds of grain seeds, such as sesame, rice, etc. Use sandalwood, red flowers, storax, benzoin, frankincense, etc., as fuel. Its signs of burning are as described above. Also, as mentioned above, unsuitable woods include: those that are dry and without bark on the tree, short, curved, thin, ugly, peeled, or too long, too thick, have been chopped by an axe, or have sores and diseases. These are all unsuitable. If practicing the fourth method, they can be used. Also, as mentioned above, the bad signs of fire include: the fire being cold and without luster, sparks flying everywhere, the flame being like smoke, or the flame shooting into the ashes, emitting a foul odor, or having no smoke or flame, or the flame and ashes rising together and falling into the ground. If these signs appear, one should know that internal and external humans or ghosts are causing trouble, or that afflictions, karma, and other obstacles have not been eliminated. If these signs are obtained, one should redo the initial method. If these signs appear when practicing the fourth method, it is called accomplishment, because it conforms to evil dharmas. The fourth method of destruction: perhaps someone will say, 'The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have great compassion, why do they teach sentient beings to practice this evil dharma?' The answer is, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas speak this dharma for the wise, not for the foolish. The reason for this is that after the Buddha's parinirvana, there will be many evil people who rely on great power, follow evil paths, do not believe in the correct dharma, and destroy the appearance of the Three Jewels, causing sentient beings to lose the eye of nirvana. How sad and pitiful. Use this method to subdue the mind of the Bodhisattva. Practicing this method is for the benefit of sentient beings, so it has great merit. Carefully observe, if there is no benefit but instead evil thoughts arise and harm sentient beings, one will incur great sin. The Buddha established precepts not to be practiced casually. If a person practicing samadhi, stays away from noise, the mind is often quiet, observes the unchanging nature of the Three Jewels, abides in the place of samadhi, enters the realm of the Buddha, accomplishes the function of wisdom, and does great Buddha deeds, the method of destruction will naturally be accomplished. For this method, the altar and furnace are both black, made in a triangular shape. The incense and flowers used are all foul and black. The firewood used is thorny, curved wood, roots growing beside the tree without branches, bitter wood, and camel or mule dung as incense. Mix furnace soil with various materials as fire food. Use white mustard oil, or fat and blood as lamp oil. Use bone --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version Distribute coffins, etc. Cut off the tips of six or seven fingers. Dress in dark blue or blood-stained clothes. Squat in anger, as described in the scriptures. Then perform the fire ritual. When an evil omen appears, the ritual is accomplished. Furthermore, according to the Yoga Great Secret Teaching, there are twenty kinds of secret fire rituals. What are the twenty kinds? These twenty kinds come from three practices: first, Śāntika (pacifying); second, Pauṣṭika (increasing); and third, Ābhicāruka (subjugating). It can eliminate all sins, perfect merits, and make the body and mind peaceful and indestructible. This is called Śāntika (there are four practices in this). All wishes are quickly fulfilled, increasing wealth and lifespan, etc. Everything is self-tamed, and those who see it are respectful. All kinds of appearances are dignified, and realgar, etc., are accomplished in the void. This is called Pauṣṭika (there are nine practices in this). Binding, destroying, etc., subduing various difficult-to-tame enemies and demons. This is called Ābhicāruka (there are seven practices in this). The above are twenty kinds of Homa (fire offering) methods (among them, a wider range of one hundred and ten kinds of fire offering methods are kept secret and not translated). It should be known that the twenty kinds of furnace shapes should also be explained. If you want to gather everything, make the shape of a Vajra (a ritual implement) inside the furnace. If you want to subdue evil people, etc., make the shape of a lotus (Padma) inside the furnace. If you want to eliminate all sins, make the furnace round, and a door must be made. Make a treasure image inside the furnace, and the door is the same. If you want the clan to grow, make the shape of a Karma-mudrā inside the furnace, which is a three-pronged cross shape. If it is for longevity, beauty, and strength, set up armor inside the furnace, and walls and ditches around it. If you want to accumulate all wealth, make a tooth mark inside the furnace. If you want all good things to be accomplished and be happy everywhere, set up a wheel-shaped seal inside the furnace, like a wheel hub, and the four sides of the furnace are also like wheels. Set up the twenty kinds of seals in this way in sequence, such as the altar seals behind. Or set up various seals, according to what you want to achieve. In addition, regarding the solemn decoration outside the furnace, first measure the furnace with a rope of four cubits, and place boundary paths and colored ground on all four sides, either square, round, or like a lotus. The four sides are flat and upright, and the four doors gradually become steps. Draw nets and crescent shapes in the eight parts of the door. Make the shape of a Vajra-yakṣa near the door steps, and draw it according to the law. Draw ten thousand on the east side outside the furnace. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
