Without accepting or rejecting,
Without projecting or dissolving.
When some degree of wakefulness has dawned,
Hold the vase with the union-breath and
Train the wind-path through vajra recitation.
Once the channels and winds are made pliable,
Use the contact with a qualified mudra
To kindle the fire of great passion.
Let the bliss descend, hold, turn, permeate, and spread.
Rest in the continuity of great wakefulness.
As enhancement practices, light the tummo fire.
From TAM in the heart, emanate the light of OM,
Through which the essences of the universe and beings
Are gathered by HUNG and then absorbed.
Focus the mind on the indestructible bindu
And stabilize it with breathing practice.
Bring the immediate instant of self-existing awareness
To basic space beyond conceptual mind.
Through the illustrating example wisdom,
The real coemergent is realized,
And you accomplish Vajra Tara of the changeless three essences
Within this very lifetime.
These were the gradual instructions
On the concluding part of the Supreme Path.
Samaya. Seal, seal, seal. Dathim.
Thus, having received the blessing of Jetsün Tara, Chokgyur Lingpa wrote this down, as it flowed forth from the treasure mine of realization. Atiguhya.
