4  I prostrate to the Lama Manjushri Yamantaka, Jampal Shinje Shed! What follows is the story of the 'Extreme Blazing Razor' of the Immortal Lord Manjushri. At a time long past, in the south at the sacred place of Yama was the great charnel ground known as 'The Most Fierce Inferno'. Within this awesome charnel ground was an immeasurable castle established in complete abundance. Innumerable were the displays of this terrifying charnel ground. Completely surrounding its center were water buffalo, elephants, hundreds of thousands of death lords, hundreds of thousands of nagas, and tens of thousands of mountain spirits and earth lords. Above all this upon a throne, a lotus, moon, and a blazing sun, the Lord Manjushri Yamantaka of sheer blazing wrath reveled about, standing with legs stretched and bent. Surrounding him, were the enlightened beings of the ten directions, the protectors of the ten directions, and his retinue of beings of this world and beyond. Dwelling together, they were much more vast and numerous than even the stars in the sky. At that time, the Lord Manjushri Yamantaka expounded the rare and precious secret tantras of the enlightened mind of Manjushri. All so-called demons were established in the deep equanimity of meditative absorption. Immediately after coming out of that state, all these haughty spirits and their retinues began to tremble with sheer fright and terror. Light rays emanated from the enlightened mind of primordial wisdom. From the points of these rays, meteoric iron wheels, iron hooks, iron nooses, iron chains, shackles, and bells limitlessly came forth. Hung Hung, Ha La La, Hu Lu Hu Lu, Dza Hung Bam Ho, and Eh Ah Ra Li Hring Hring resounded like a thousand thunderclaps! All these arrogant spirits were then immediately subjugated and tamed. To the Lord Manjushri Yamantaka, these spirits bowed, prayed for protection, and were established in bliss. Then, Vajrapani, the Lord of power and might, arose and supplicated Lord Yamantaka with devotion. At the time of this supplication, all of the evil spirits each came and offered up their vital life essences. In deep meditative absorption, the Lord Manjushri Yamantaka sang: "The Rudras disrupting the teachings of the Buddha and the turnings of the Dharma wheel must be subdued. All of you, in your tasks of subduing, you must not harm sentient beings."

5  After binding the entire retinue under oath with this command, Yamantaka taught the great root tantra of the 'Secret Moon of Manjushri's Mind' in four chapters, the tantra 'Secret Moon of Annihilating Arrogant Spirits' in eight chapters, the tantra of the 'Manjushri Yamantaka's Magical Wheel Unleashing the Fury inside the Heart of the Scorpion' in fifteen chapters, the tantra famous in the realms of gods as the 'Essential Meaning of the Fierce Mantra of the Savage Fury of the Scorpion's Heart' in seven chapters, as well as all the other root tantras, explanatory tantras, and individual tantras. By the power of these limitless transmissions, the retinue was established in absolute rapture! All these tantras were carefully collected by the powerful Lord Vajrapani. These were then entrusted to the master Garab Dorje, who in turn entrusted them to Manjushrimitra. Manjushrimitra then concealed the root tantra of the 'Secret Moon of Manjushri's Mind' in the stone pillar of the 'Naga Suppressing God' (This was later discovered by Jnanagarbha and transmitted to Tragtung Nagpo, who in turn gave them to Tsuglag Palge). All other tantras he gave to the master Shantigarbha. These were then given to Tsuglag Palge. From within all these tantras, the master Tsuglag Palge extracted the profound pith instructions on protection, repelling, slaying, and suppression. These were then given the name, 'Blazing Razor of Extreme Repelling', and transmitted to the master Padma. These were then given to the Nepali Vasudhara. Vasudhara's younger brother passed away. In Nub valley in Tibet he was reborn as the famous Nub Sangye Yeshe. Through the power of previous aspirations Nub Sangye Yeshe went to Kathmandu in Nepal and came before the presence of Vasudhara seven times. Vasudhara carefully transmitted all the tantras to him. These tantras were all received by being explained, listened to, and practiced in the language of Nepal. At the end of this time, Vasudhara bestowed upon him the entire cycle of the 'Blazing Razor of Extreme Repelling' hiding nothing. Placing a Manjushri upon Nub Sangye Yeshe's head, he sealed these instructions as not to be propagated to others until he had been ripened. When Nub Sangye Yeshe returned to Tibet, all the tantras widely flourished. Yet the time to reveal the pith instructions had not come. Thus he made the following aspiration, "In the times of the five rampant degenerations, may these meet with Ngagpas of fortunate karma, and may the enemies of Buddhists be defeated!"

6  Then, he concealed these at the Khoting Temple of Lhodrag and at Phungpo Riwoche. As for the hidden treasure of Riwoche, it was revealed by the fortunate tertön Gya Zhang Trom. Later it was entrusted to Lharje Nub Chung. Lharje Nub Chung, knowing about the hidden treasure of Lhodrag Khoting, went and revealed it. Around this time, when Tsurtön Rinchen Dorje was using magic to deal with Pongzhön Tönchung, his father, and son, Rolpo Metön, through the practice of repelling, caused a powerful magical attack to arise. Tsurtön Rinchen Dorje went before Lhamo Wangchug Dorje of Kharag and explained his story. He said, "The one they call Metönpa has been using repelling in the kingdom of Tsang destroying all without a trace." "I myself have a refined practice of repelling and the rest," was the reply. "Yet this is no good," he said, "for he is an expert with mudras and 'urmo' magic." "Then if you are in need of a profound practice of extreme repelling, Lharje Nub Chung has one like it," she said. So he left to go see Lharje Nub Chung. On his way he obtained some dyed wool, and coming before the presence of Lharje Nub Chung, offered it. Then he requested the instructions of 'Extreme Repelling'. Although he was given only a part of the instructions, he was satisfied. When he practiced these, a great magical display of a yellow muzzled stallion arose.. Taking with him some gold coins, he went before Lharje Nub Chung and offered them all and said, "It seems that there were parts missing to what you gave me, please I request you to grant me everything." Nub Chung replied, "When I didn't give you everything, it was because I gave you everything you came to get. Didn't you request a practice to create great magical displays?" Then fastening on his Ngagpa robes, he bestowed the meditation methods of the deity and everything else saying, "I swear on my own head that nothing is left out." Tsurtön Rinchen Dorje in turn took an oath not to instruct others until he had realized the instructions. Then he went back. He had two sons Jampal, who was eighteen and Tsurtön Wang Nge, who was fifteen. Together the three of them continuously did the mantras of protection, repelling, and slaying. Because of this, Metön,

7 his master, and four servants began vomiting blood, and then died. By stabbing the effigies of Pongzhön Tönchung, his seven sons, and sixty-one servants and then doing the practices, Pongzhön Tönchung, his father, sons, and sixty-one servants were all liberated over the course of nine months. These profound instructions of the 'Blazing Razor of Extreme Repelling' were then entrusted by Tsurtön Rinchen Dorje to Kuzhang Pal. Then they were given to Tsultrim Rinchen, Changchub Gönpo, the one named Namkhai, the one named Tsultrim, and Gyatön Bönpo Rigdzin Sangwa. Then these instructions were offered to the all-seeing victorious one known as Ratna, Rinchen Phuntsog. Through profound practice, the great awareness holder Rinchen Phuntsog beheld the true face of the deity continually. These were entrusted to the one with the name Dharma, Chögyal Phuntsog, endowed with the warmth of perfection, who through profound practice beheld the true face of the deity continually. Then they were entrusted to the one named the Tshungme Manga, Tashi Phuntsog, who through profound practice beheld the true face of the deity more than a few times. To my great delight, I was graciously given these instructions. By binding myself to practice for a period, I saw the true face many times and became accepted by the deity. Having been accepted by the supreme deity, I actualized the fruitions of accomplishment. Relatively, the four enlightened activities were accomplished since beginningless time. Ultimately, I easily accomplished the five kayas, the five primordial wisdoms, and the state of the primordial wisdom deity Manjushri Yamantaka without any doubt of this being the true Yidam. There is no hesitation and only certainty that this is the profound extract of the innermost essence of the great secret unsurpassable Vajrayana. This is how previously the 'Blazing Razor of Extreme Repelling' passed through Tsuglag Palge. Before this, the history is abbreviated. The introductions to the tantra of the 'Secret Moon', the life stories of all the lineage Lamas, Rinchen Phuntsog's and his son's records of teachings received, and other sources were carefully collected in a way that was easy to understand. This was composed by Rigdzin Chökyi Dragpa, a twelfth generation descendent of the Kyura family of the great and glorious Drigungpa, in the year of the iron female sheep in my own thirty-seventh year on the sixth day of the eleventh month at the great castle of Tashi Tshug.

Bill
Note
Meditating on the stupa is very vast, as vast as the universe. Everything else is contained within. Just find a picture of a stupa and that should help the visualization. No need to get very elaborate with the description. Those just begining should be very clear about some of the basic stages of visualization. So take the visualizations one by one a spend a little more time strengthing the clarity of the visualization and giving the subsequent visualizations time next time you practice. The most important point is not to see things as ordinary but pure. We are trying to train our mind to perceive things in a pure way.

1 OM 'five primordial wisdoms' SWABHAWA 'self-nature' (rang-bzhin) SHUDDHA 'purity' SARWA 'all' DHARMA 'phenomena' SWABHAWA 'pure self-nature' SHUDDHO HAM 'essence' In the profound twenty-third chapter of the 'Manjushri Heart Tantra' it says, "Meditate on the basis and the three types of meditative absorption as suchness and the all-illuminating (samadhi)." As for the meaning, it follows. 2 From the emptiness of the Dharmadhatu, the enlightened realm of the selflessness of phenomena and individuals arises. "In a single instant, all animate and inanimate phenomena are established in the luminousity of emptiness." This is how the tantra of 'Accomplishing All Through the Mandala of Death's Sworn Enemy,' was translated by Pandita Khepa Thugje Chenpo and Lotsawa Ra Dorjedrag. Later the translation was revised by Pandita Samantashri and Lotsawa Ra Chörab. "All animate and inanimate things are not existent, non-existent, both, or neither. Meditate within this unelaborated simplicity." This being said, realize that the selfless realm of emptiness is freedom from the four extremes. 3 'Grasp' 4 'Great' refers to the 'samadhi of illumination'. 5 In the same tantra of the 'Sworn Enemy' it says, "At the time of meditating on the mandala, through (cultivating) the stages of immeasurable love, compassion, joy, and equanimity, one will be able to benefit all sentient beings." This statement and the previous statement from the tantra of the 'Sworn Enemy' were from the same chapter. Thus, they have a consistent purpose. In the twenty-third chapter of the 'Secret Tantra of Immaculate Manjushri' it further says, "Never parting from the mind of compassion, never parting from love and the rest, one's mind becomes completely pure, like a wish-fulfilling jewel." 6 'The enlightened mind'

120 7 Unelaborated and free from thoughts 8 The essence here refers to the 'seed syllable'. 9 'Self-awareness' 10 This is the 'seed samadhi'. 11 'Fire, wind, and water' respectively 12 Grasping to the reality of 'oneself and what pertains to oneself' 13 This happens through the ultimate fire, wind, and water of the luminousity of emptiness. 14 This refers to the same seed-syllable as before. According to various explanations, it is explained that 'Hung' has a meaning of complete subduing and generosity. In this context, it completely subdues the ten completely misguided forces (see note 175) and it bestows the two types of accomplishments to sentient beings. This is the precise meaning of the seed syllable. 15 As a deep blue triangle 16 A 'green' vajra cross 17 A 'red triangular' mandala 18 A 'white spherical' mandala 19 A 'golden square' foundation 20 The vowels are skillful means. The consonants are wisdom.

121 21 The stupa is symmetrical. Above the throne is Mount Meru. Above Mount Meru are four more steps. Above the vase of the stupa is the pillar of thirteen dharma wheels. Above that, is the supreme parasol. Above that are the sun, moon, and wish-fulfilling jewel. 22 In the old texts it used to say 'rainbow' light rays. 23 'Inside the vast and spacious vase of the stupa' 24 Visualize that the vajra crosses spread from the seed syllable 'Hung' like light spreads from a butter lamp. The spokes of the vajra crosses are connected. 25 The same dark blue seed syllable as before 26 'YAMA' means 'Lord of Death' and 'TI RA BAM' means corpse. 27 They are interlaced 28 There are two of each. 29 This is the 'sun and moon manifestation of enlightenment'. (In generation stage one visualizes the five manifestations of enlightenment.) Below these is the lotus seat. 30 This is the same seed syllable as before. It is the 'enlightened speech manifestation of enlightenment'. 31 It is given further in some oral instructions that the nature of the emanating Hung above the three seats, without emanating and gathering, dissolves into light from which the vajra is meditated upon. 32 All enemies and obstructors are destroyed. 33 In order to purify taking birth in the bardo through the blood and semen of ones parents or as a gandharva spirit, (meditate that from the Hung emits) the roars and whispers of the vowel 'U' and the consonant 'Ha', purifying the ten phases of being in the womb. To purify the five aggregates and the five poisons, the head (of the Hung)

122 is (primordial wisdom of) equanimity, the crescent moon is mirror-like primordial wisdom, the tip of the bindu is primordial wisdom of the Dharmadhatu, the 'zhab-kyu' is all-accomplishing primordial wisdom, and the hollow (of the Hung) is discriminating primordial wisdom. One should generate a constant awareness of the innate existence of the five primordial wisdoms in this way. By (meditating) on the essence of the Hung's form as the 'five certainties of the Sambhogakaya' for the sake of purifying the path of the bardo, one has the opportunity to utilize the path of the Sambhogakaya. (The five certainties of the Sambhogakaya are the perfect teacher, Dharma, retinue, place, and time.) 34 To all directions 35 It is said in the pith instructions that at this point all worldly demons are annihilated. 36 To completely transform from the vajra, Hung, and causal vajra-holder, into the manifest vajra-holder of fruition, with the visualization one must recite the mantra and simultaneously arise as the deity. The eleven-syllable 'A TRO' mantra of the deity is set forth in the Tantra of 'The Blazing Murderer of Dark Red Yama'. To purify the karma of taking continuous rebirths, one should meditate as the deity being like an illusion. Through training in the purification of rebirth both fortunate disciples and others have the opportunity to practice the rebirth of the path of a supreme Nirmanakaya. Although there are limitless explanations, scriptures, and reasoning in the vast teachings of the profound path of the Vajrayana generation stage, they are not written here. 37 Generate the 'completely perfect body manifestation of enlightenment' of the five manifestations of enlightenment. 38 One should visualize oneself as Yamantaka. 39 In dancing posture 40 The face of Nirmanakaya having a smiling and joyous expression

At the heart of Manjushri one meditates on the five-pronged vajra and so forth according to the practice. 72 Silk upper and lower garments 73 In repelling and slaying, it front of yourself is the absolutely terrifying form of the wrathful deity with burly limbs holding a razor sword and an iron hook. From his heart emanate uncountable (wrathful deities) holding iron hooks, nooses, iron shackles, and bells. By this, the enemies of black magic are seized, and brought down upon themselves. This visualization is from the oral instructions. 74 In the heart of oneself, the samayasattva, one should meditate on the five pointed vajra as the enlightened mind of all the Buddhas, the essence of Vajrasattva. 75 In the central point is white Vairochana, facing towards the front. In front is blue Akshobhya. In the right point is yellow Ratnasambhava. Behind is red Amitabha. In the left is green Amoghasiddhi.

130 133 The two types 134 In the oral instructions it further says, 'a strong and powerful force'. 135 In the sixtieth chapter of the 'Gathering of the Secret Moon' tantra, when teaching on the outer tantra, 'Whatever particular actions are done, you are not separate from Yamantaka. As for the color and implements of the deity, it is suitable to visualize whatever you are doing in an elaborate or simple way.' This having been said, whatever infinite things you may be doing, you should not separate from the generation stage practice of the deity. Furthermore, it is appropriate to use either the six-armed or two-armed deity. In the generation stage practice here, you should meditate for as long as you can with a vivid recollection of the deity's presence. When you tire of that, recite the mantra. 136 OM EH KA YAMA DU RU TSA KRE SUNG/ 'Dharmakaya' HE KA YAMA DU RU TSA KRE SUNG/ 'Sambhogakaya' GHRI MA YAMA DU RU TSA KRE SUNG/ 'Nirmanakaya' SARWA TSITTA 'the essence of all samsara and nirvana' ZIR TUM/ BHIG NEN/ 'summon' TRIG NEN/ 'overpower' BE YA 'incite' DOG YA/ 'repel' This commentary on the mantra is in the fiftieth chapter of the 'Vajra Temple' tantra. 137 Having visualized this, recite the mantra. It is said in the texts, 'It is shown how the signs of effort manifest from the previous mantra recitation. These signs are storming the castle, donning armor, capturing weapons, the sun rising, climbing a mountain peak, winning a horse race, raising a flag, sounding a horn, winning a battle, being victorious in all debates, sailing a ship to a destination, and many other different and various signs. When signs come, each must be examined as to whether it is in conformity with a true experience.'

Having done the recitation and by clapping your hands accordingly, your effort will bring about the appropriate signs of repelling. The signs of repelling are repelling a world war, repelling hail, changing the course of a river, tearing down a rock face, the overflowing of ponds and reservoirs, smashing of rocks to bits, and others. With your intelligence investigate. 139 E ka 'single' tsa ti 'braid of hair'.

There are the spirits who have previously taken a solemn oath in the presence of the wisdom deities. 146 For in the Dharmadhatu realm, the mind of all Buddhas resides. 147 The nature of the skillful means of great bliss. 148 Nirmanakaya 149 Sambhogakaya 150 Dharmakaya

The garland of fresh skulls is the fifty purified aspects of formation. The crown is the empowerment of the victorious ones. 158 The elephant skin is the purity of ignorance. The skin of a corpse is purity of desire.

To try and guide one of these ten types of beings (by normal means) is logically ridiculous. 176 From the measureless wrathful triangular 'E' the 'bhaga', or 'primordial womb' 177 One hundred thousand nagas 'in the form of vipers', ten thousand nyen spirits 'in the form of tadpoles', and a thousand earth lords 'in the form of scorpions' 178 These are the eight glorious accoutrements of the charnel grounds and so forth. 179 The thirty-two major and eighty minor marks 180 The four demons are the demon of god's son or pride, the demon of afflictive emotions, the demon of death, and the demon of the aggregates. 181 The six classes of beings of the six realms 182 This is the body adorned with the major and minor marks of having attained the Vajrakaya 183 This is true enlightened speech that is endowed with the sixty types of melodies. 184 This is the primordial wisdom of non-dual bliss, emptiness, and profound luminosity. 185 These qualities are unmatched by all sentient beings and have no adversary. 186 Peaceful, increasing, magnetizing, and wrathful 187 Through the application of great and powerful magic, all forces are subjugated. 188 This refers to the supreme accomplishment of Mahamudra. 189 May there be the immediate fruition of all my requests.

135 190 Of my body, speech, and mind 191 This refers to an age during the increase of the five degenerations. (1. degeneration of the view 2. degeneration of afflictive emotions 3. degeneration of the time 4. degeneration of life span 5. degeneration of sentient beings.) 192 On the stages and paths until I reach the unhindered state 193 Overwhelmingly summon these beings and tame them through peaceful methods. Yet if they cannot be tamed by peaceful methods, they will be liberated by the force of your awesome fury of compassion! 194 The triangle is for flesh, blood, and bones. In this way the Nirmanakaya is attained. 195 The Sambhogakaya is attained. 196 The Dharmakaya is attained. 197 My foremost wish is for supreme accomplishment in attaining the paths and stages of awakening. 198 The right hand is holding the wheel. The left hand is holding the iron hook. There are two legs. The bone ornaments and so forth are like the six armed Yamantaka. 199 In post meditation one should see with completely pure perception all phenomena as luminous emptiness. Thus training for a long time in the base, path, and fruition of the luminosity of Mahamudra, one will enter the state of luminosity. Moreover, one should arise as the two armed enlightened form, like an illusion, appearing yet non-existent. This is the essence of the practice of the father tantra. If one knows the crucial points of establishing all phenomena as luminosity, arising in the deity's enlightened form like an illusion, and training in the recognition of the animate and inanimate universe as an illusion, then one has all the keys to the generation and completion stages of the father tantras without a single thing being left aside! May the fortunate ones understand this! These crucial points are profound and vast, quite

136 difficult to realize. Up until now there have been no commentaries on the practice ritual of the 'Blazing Razor of Extreme Repelling'. So that others may understand the meaning of this generation stage practice, this has been offered by Drigungpa Mantrika Chökyi Dragpa. 200 It is a great pitfall to ignore the cause of unhindered accomplishment, the main point of which is the non-duality of self and others. As for repelling, when doing the torma offering or any of the rest of the boundless activities, one should not regard oneself, the deity, enemies, obstructors, and so forth as separate. If one has any anger, jealousy, or hatred then all the things one does will be that of an evil Buddhist mantra practitioner. Do not end up with that unwholesomeness in your being! At the time of doing the activities, outer demons and obstructors are still one's own mind. Inner discursive thoughts are still one's own mind. Secretly, the channels, the winds, the five poisons, the three poisons, and the rest are still one's own mind. The outer universe, the inner beings, all samsara and nirvana are one's own mind. They are nothing whatsoever other than the infinite expanse of Kuntuzangpo, the empty and luminous Dharmakaya! There is no basis in the dualistic fixation of self and other, of subject and object, of all phenomena and what holds their nature. Decide upon the view of realizing the non-existing emptiness of the unique thigle of Dharmakaya, and seal that decision! At that time, you block the pitfalls to non-dual realization. In this way, the self-display and natural energy of that (Dharmakaya) unobstructedly appear as deities, practitioners, enemies, demons, and so forth all appearing yet without existence. A phantasmal illusion of a fortress, horses, elephants, armies, and so on without even so much as an atom of being. Places appear yet are non-existent. Activities appear to be done yet are non-existent. As for the fruition that appears but is non-existent, it is Dharmata, the meaning of all. The most profound uncontrived experience is realization that arises from within. The middling uncontrived experience is to have stability. Even the least will have a firm intellectual understanding, driving in the stake of mind with mindfulness and courage. Again and again remember this clearly! It is the way to accomplish all the activities. It is essential to keep in your mind! As written before, this was composed by Dharmakirti.
