That which is called "such appearance." If it deviates from these two, the object and the mind, which are appearing to us now, then there is nothing whatsoever called the appearance of "the spontaneously accomplished ground appearance," and there is also nothing whatsoever called the body and wisdom of the Buddha as the result. However, due to the power of grasping at reality and clinging to truth, there is a difference between whether the appearance is made stable or not, and whether the part of dualistic grasping of illusory appearance is purified in the dharmadhatu or not. Therefore, on top of these two, the object and the mind, abandoning the extremes of grasping at the two truths as different, and the dualistic grasping of the grasper and the grasped, praying to constantly abide in this state of the wisdom of the great perfection of self-nature, which is the non-dual union, free from elaboration, and spontaneously accomplished: The emptiness that is primordially pure from the very beginning, The dharma that is dependently originated and spontaneously accomplished, Whatever has abandoned the extremes of grasping at two, May it abide in the great perfection of self-nature. The concluding connection is easy to understand. These meanings are extremely condensed, and are only made as an entrance to analysis, because a detailed explanation would make the words cumbersome and the discussion lengthy. However, although disciples of the supreme protector Jetsun, like a string of golden mountains, have emerged who are most suitable for explaining these meanings, I know that I am merely the lowest of all subjects, like a dark iron fence, but I still try hard to be able to contain the profound meaning like an ocean in my belly, and to skillfully illuminate the key points with the light of eloquent speech. The words and meanings are skillfully integrated, Without elaborating on what is known, Wise people rejoice in this feast of good speech, But fools do not like it. This short prayer for the long life was written in a straightforward manner by Gödöl Chöpal Ge Hralpo, may this virtue cause the lotus feet of the kind protector Gyalsé Dampa, whose kindness is immeasurable, to remain firm forever. Auspicious! The commentary on the long life prayer, "The Vajra Words Unveiled," by Gyalsé Shenpen Thaye.
