1 00:00:03,041 --> 00:00:20,500 So greetings, everyone to this, 2 00:00:20,500 --> 00:00:23,916 the second session of our Padmasambhava and Tibet seminar. 3 00:00:24,750 --> 00:00:28,166 The session will be recorded and published as a video podcast, 4 00:00:28,166 --> 00:00:32,125 and will be available from our web pages at the Tibetan and Himalayan Studies 5 00:00:32,125 --> 00:00:33,958 Center in Wilson College. 6 00:00:33,958 --> 00:00:37,416 From the main University podcast site, and also from Apple Podcasts 7 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,333 for anyone who did not see the notifications. 8 00:00:41,333 --> 00:00:44,958 John Nimitz is talk on Kashmir and Shi'ism in and around the late 9 00:00:44,958 --> 00:00:48,125 eighth century, is being put forward until February the 11th. 10 00:00:48,625 --> 00:00:50,083 But today we are very fortunate 11 00:00:50,083 --> 00:00:54,416 that our seminar Coconvenor Kathy Cantwell, is serendipitously able 12 00:00:54,416 --> 00:00:57,583 to share some of her most recent research discoveries with us. 13 00:00:58,416 --> 00:01:01,541 These come from her latest book project, which is a study of Tibetan 14 00:01:01,541 --> 00:01:04,791 longevity rituals that she's coauthoring with Geoffrey Samuel 15 00:01:06,583 --> 00:01:08,333 Kathy Cantwell, first on the Oxford 16 00:01:08,333 --> 00:01:11,666 faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies back in 2002. 17 00:01:12,291 --> 00:01:15,833 After retiring many years later, she still remains active 18 00:01:15,833 --> 00:01:19,791 as a research associate in Tibet and Himalayan Studies within the faculty. 19 00:01:20,125 --> 00:01:23,333 A member of Wilson College and a coconvenor of the seminar, 20 00:01:24,291 --> 00:01:27,166 she was for many years a secretary and also president 21 00:01:27,166 --> 00:01:30,833 of the UK Association for Buddhist Studies, and has published widely, 22 00:01:30,833 --> 00:01:33,333 especially on early new, more tantric traditions, 23 00:01:33,333 --> 00:01:36,333 and is the author of four monographs and numerous articles. 24 00:01:36,708 --> 00:01:39,416 She's also done a number of prolonged fieldwork stints, 25 00:01:39,416 --> 00:01:42,083 including in Bhutan, Kalin Powell and back. 26 00:01:42,083 --> 00:01:43,458 In the early 1980s. 27 00:01:43,458 --> 00:01:47,250 At the moment his funeral also, which was when she first learned about 28 00:01:47,250 --> 00:01:51,000 the Lama hot accomplishment practices, which will be referenced in this talk. 29 00:01:51,416 --> 00:01:52,916 So, Cathy, over to you. 30 00:01:54,958 --> 00:01:56,000 Oh. Thank you. 31 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,416 It's, it's good to be, here and giving this talk now for some time. 32 00:02:02,416 --> 00:02:07,125 Jeffrey, Samuel and I have been preparing a book on Tibetan longevity rituals, 33 00:02:07,458 --> 00:02:11,250 which will focus on contemporary practices in the tradition, 34 00:02:11,541 --> 00:02:15,500 especially that of the chimney smoke tick cycle associated with the revealer. 35 00:02:15,791 --> 00:02:20,375 Zilla Nankai Dorjee, who lived from the 19th to the 20th century. 36 00:02:21,166 --> 00:02:25,708 As a background to that work, we have been delving into historical sources, 37 00:02:26,083 --> 00:02:30,583 and I have particularly looked into precedents in the larger pneuma sources. 38 00:02:31,166 --> 00:02:33,750 Here I give just a glimpse of those rich, 39 00:02:33,750 --> 00:02:36,750 rich materials. 40 00:02:37,375 --> 00:02:38,166 It's clear 41 00:02:38,166 --> 00:02:42,000 that longevity rites have an important role in Tibetan imperial times. 42 00:02:42,208 --> 00:02:43,708 When Buddhism was first adopted 43 00:02:43,708 --> 00:02:47,333 by the Tibetan Empire and started to penetrate into the society. 44 00:02:48,083 --> 00:02:50,791 A recent study by Brandon Dotson and Louis 45 00:02:50,791 --> 00:02:54,958 Stone has demonstrated the centrality of Tibetan versions 46 00:02:54,958 --> 00:02:58,791 of the sutra of Limitless Life in Imperial Tibet. 47 00:02:59,416 --> 00:03:03,291 Thousands of copies of this sutra, apparently made and distributed widely 48 00:03:03,291 --> 00:03:04,916 across the Empire in the first half 49 00:03:04,916 --> 00:03:08,916 of the 19th century, and the motivation for such reproduction 50 00:03:08,916 --> 00:03:12,583 appears to have been to benefit Tibetan emperor, who most probably 51 00:03:12,875 --> 00:03:16,083 and most probably to expand and extend his lifespan. 52 00:03:16,791 --> 00:03:19,208 Although he may not have official records 53 00:03:19,208 --> 00:03:22,375 of the tantric rituals, which later became so important, 54 00:03:23,833 --> 00:03:24,416 it is worth 55 00:03:24,416 --> 00:03:28,708 noting this interest in Buddhist practice for longevity from the earliest period, 56 00:03:29,125 --> 00:03:33,541 and also to note the dhani, which features in the search for of limitless 57 00:03:33,541 --> 00:03:36,958 life, is still recited and indeed practiced together 58 00:03:36,958 --> 00:03:41,333 with and integrated into tantric rituals performed in numerous circles today, 59 00:03:42,333 --> 00:03:45,458 the orientation of Buddhist practices linked to a concern 60 00:03:45,458 --> 00:03:50,083 for the longevity of the emperor is interestingly recognized and bemoaned 61 00:03:50,083 --> 00:03:53,250 in upon texts dating from the 12th century. 62 00:03:53,875 --> 00:03:57,000 In this proclamation study by pair 63 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000 Karana and Dan Martin, 64 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,000 we read a bonafide review of the official Tibetan adoption of Buddhism. 65 00:04:04,583 --> 00:04:07,583 The Tibetan king is said to favor the Buddha Dharma 66 00:04:07,625 --> 00:04:11,125 rather than born because he thinks it will prolong his life. 67 00:04:11,666 --> 00:04:15,708 The king is beseeched to reconsider on the grounds that the realm of Tibet 68 00:04:15,708 --> 00:04:19,625 will be ruined as a result, but the king insists that he requires 69 00:04:19,625 --> 00:04:21,708 longevity, such as an Indian king 70 00:04:21,708 --> 00:04:24,958 who lived for a thousand years due to his practice of Buddhism. 71 00:04:25,583 --> 00:04:26,916 I might mention also, 72 00:04:26,916 --> 00:04:30,791 in the light of our seminar topic, that one version of this proclamation 73 00:04:31,041 --> 00:04:35,666 includes Padma Samovar in its blame for the subsequent ruin of Tibet. 74 00:04:37,500 --> 00:04:38,291 As many of you 75 00:04:38,291 --> 00:04:42,000 will know, we have little evidence in official imperial sources 76 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,041 of the Maha Yoga tantric rituals, which are our particular interest here. 77 00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:49,833 Yet survivals found in dung on both of my yoga 78 00:04:49,833 --> 00:04:53,916 route Tantra, such as the Tucking Shopper and Maha yoga practice 79 00:04:53,916 --> 00:04:57,208 manuals, attest that such materials are to be found 80 00:04:57,666 --> 00:05:01,041 and were perhaps popularized in the post-imperial period. 81 00:05:02,041 --> 00:05:05,125 The ancient Tantra collection pneuma, 82 00:05:05,625 --> 00:05:10,750 or NB, represents a compilation of the now journeying my heritage of route. 83 00:05:10,750 --> 00:05:14,875 Temperance from the period before the later spreads as the Dharma 84 00:05:15,125 --> 00:05:18,291 represented by the sama or New Translation schools. 85 00:05:21,333 --> 00:05:22,166 Of these, 86 00:05:22,166 --> 00:05:27,875 a number of NB route Tantra feature or include longevity practices, but here 87 00:05:27,875 --> 00:05:32,166 I mentioned only one, which seems to have had a lasting influence on lightning. 88 00:05:32,166 --> 00:05:33,916 My practice. 89 00:05:33,916 --> 00:05:37,708 This is the pooling elixir Tantra of immortal lifespan 90 00:05:37,916 --> 00:05:42,500 within the My Yoga Elixir Qualities section of the ng cb. 91 00:05:43,041 --> 00:05:46,750 This is referred to or cited by many nice and new male writers, 92 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,250 but perhaps especially significantly, this is drawn on in the longevity sections 93 00:05:52,708 --> 00:05:56,750 of the 12th century young RA, Nina Unser's multi-volume 94 00:05:57,208 --> 00:06:01,458 revelation of the Eightfold Buddha word, embodying the singletons, 95 00:06:02,666 --> 00:06:04,250 which helped to create 96 00:06:04,250 --> 00:06:07,583 a template for tantric practice in the Numa tradition. 97 00:06:08,625 --> 00:06:12,208 At this stage, I want to digress slightly to make two important points 98 00:06:12,208 --> 00:06:16,333 about the dating of the revelation sources I'll be discussing in this talk. 99 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,458 First, as some of you will know, Tamo revelations 100 00:06:20,458 --> 00:06:24,291 may be reworked or supplemented by further materials from the tradition 101 00:06:24,291 --> 00:06:27,291 in later compilations and practice manuals. 102 00:06:27,458 --> 00:06:30,750 Here I've restricted my discussion only to the root source 103 00:06:30,750 --> 00:06:34,916 revelations or tension of the reveals. 104 00:06:35,208 --> 00:06:38,333 In other words, to take some fairly confident stems 105 00:06:38,333 --> 00:06:41,333 from the revealer rather than later editors. 106 00:06:41,916 --> 00:06:46,500 Second, although we can date our texts to the reveal is concerned, 107 00:06:46,750 --> 00:06:50,458 this does not necessarily mean that the texts under discussion 108 00:06:50,458 --> 00:06:55,083 or significant passages of them date only from the time as a revealer. 109 00:06:55,541 --> 00:06:58,250 They might, in fact be a good deal older. 110 00:06:58,250 --> 00:07:02,833 It is common for revelations to reproduce or reiterate older texts. 111 00:07:03,208 --> 00:07:07,791 In the case of Myung Ro, I've written elsewhere and I give the reference here 112 00:07:08,666 --> 00:07:11,666 about the action purpose part of the embodying the sutra 113 00:07:12,041 --> 00:07:15,583 Circuits collection, which consists of a single text 114 00:07:15,583 --> 00:07:18,583 in six sections, which is clearly an archaic text. 115 00:07:19,041 --> 00:07:22,833 The second section of the text is witnessed amongst the Durham materials, 116 00:07:22,833 --> 00:07:27,291 which pre-date young Wilde's time by at least a century, and it is most likely 117 00:07:27,291 --> 00:07:31,583 that the entire text was inherited and transmitted as a whole by young royal. 118 00:07:32,500 --> 00:07:36,208 In the case of our longevity practices within young males embodying 119 00:07:36,208 --> 00:07:39,250 the societies, it is possible that here too young 120 00:07:39,250 --> 00:07:42,250 well may have been drawing on older materials. 121 00:07:42,250 --> 00:07:46,791 I have a working hypothesis relating to a core of the Embodying 122 00:07:46,791 --> 00:07:51,125 the Scriptures collection, a number of texts which are all marked 123 00:07:51,125 --> 00:07:55,166 by the same wording found in the action Purba section, 124 00:07:56,125 --> 00:07:56,916 saying that they 125 00:07:56,916 --> 00:08:00,208 stem from the King's earlier manuscripts. 126 00:08:00,708 --> 00:08:05,083 My hypothesis is that these key texts of the collection represent 127 00:08:05,083 --> 00:08:09,250 older man's scripts, passed on intact within young man's revelation. 128 00:08:09,833 --> 00:08:13,791 My only evidence is my own hunch, together with evidence from the action 129 00:08:13,791 --> 00:08:17,791 Purba part of the collection and I hope that subsequent scholars 130 00:08:18,500 --> 00:08:21,666 will be in a position to test this hypothesis carefully. 131 00:08:23,125 --> 00:08:26,666 So retaining some caution given that I've not conducted 132 00:08:26,666 --> 00:08:30,000 a full textual analysis of these specific longevity texts, 133 00:08:30,416 --> 00:08:34,791 I think it possible or even probable that the texts I mention here, both marked 134 00:08:34,791 --> 00:08:38,750 by this wording, may stem from materials inherited by a young girl. 135 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,541 In any case, the main point here is that when we date these texts 136 00:08:42,541 --> 00:08:45,541 and young wealth, we're not necessarily saying they were written 137 00:08:45,541 --> 00:08:49,041 in the 12th century, only that they're known later than this. 138 00:08:50,041 --> 00:08:51,125 To return to a brief 139 00:08:51,125 --> 00:08:55,041 consideration of the pooling elixir Tantra as immortal lifespan, 140 00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:59,250 it's clear that it has a significant impact on the tradition. 141 00:08:59,833 --> 00:09:04,041 As already mentioned, Nyanga refers explicitly to this root tantra 142 00:09:04,375 --> 00:09:07,583 and cites it in the longevity texts, which is found in volume 143 00:09:07,583 --> 00:09:11,166 six of The Embodying the Signatures Collection, 144 00:09:11,458 --> 00:09:15,666 the seven fold scriptural instruction for a pacifying longevity accomplishment, 145 00:09:16,250 --> 00:09:20,791 and both this text and the auspicious longevity accomplishment in three sections 146 00:09:20,791 --> 00:09:25,250 found in volume nine have some material reminiscent of this tantra. 147 00:09:25,625 --> 00:09:28,625 Although I've not made detailed comparisons. 148 00:09:30,208 --> 00:09:34,166 An even more striking example of this tantra influence is that it 149 00:09:34,166 --> 00:09:39,375 is represented in a juncture revelation as a 15 to 16th century, 150 00:09:40,250 --> 00:09:42,375 written like dendrogram, 151 00:09:42,375 --> 00:09:45,583 Dorjee, who was the second Dorjee 152 00:09:46,125 --> 00:09:49,625 written on the incarnation of Singledom. 153 00:09:50,125 --> 00:09:54,083 Not only the entire Root Tantra, but around 400 pages 154 00:09:54,083 --> 00:09:58,583 of related practice and commentary on materials are given in this revelation. 155 00:10:01,708 --> 00:10:02,458 Now, the content 156 00:10:02,458 --> 00:10:07,583 of this root tantra is particularly rich in items integrated into later Newmont 157 00:10:07,875 --> 00:10:10,875 Tantric longevity practice practices. 158 00:10:11,083 --> 00:10:14,916 And here I show you a modern depiction of an assembly of longevity deities 159 00:10:14,916 --> 00:10:17,916 to highlight some of the similarities, 160 00:10:17,916 --> 00:10:20,666 there is the Maha Yoga framing of the practice 161 00:10:20,666 --> 00:10:25,375 and the mandala centered on Amethyst, with consort featuring numerous deities 162 00:10:25,375 --> 00:10:27,875 including the five male and female Buddhas, 163 00:10:27,875 --> 00:10:32,125 along with various sets of goddesses such as the Swiss Ladies, the standard 164 00:10:32,125 --> 00:10:36,208 set of offering goddesses and goddesses connected through the senses. 165 00:10:36,958 --> 00:10:40,041 There were different aspects of life to be enriched 166 00:10:40,708 --> 00:10:43,708 the life span, the life force, 167 00:10:43,708 --> 00:10:46,750 life spirit, and symbolic component, 168 00:10:46,750 --> 00:10:49,750 and such as the never lowered victory banner, 169 00:10:51,416 --> 00:10:53,041 we find the longevity, silk 170 00:10:53,041 --> 00:10:58,291 armor and rituals for summoning lifespan, as well as hints of the sexual yoga 171 00:10:58,291 --> 00:11:02,916 practices and related meditations on the tantric channels and ends. 172 00:11:03,625 --> 00:11:08,458 The main component, which is of course entirely absent, 173 00:11:08,458 --> 00:11:12,291 is the embedding of the practice within a Padma centric vision. 174 00:11:13,208 --> 00:11:14,750 Enlightening male practice. 175 00:11:14,750 --> 00:11:17,750 It is common for longevity cycles at the least, 176 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,041 to relate the background for the practice to the great guru's accomplishment 177 00:11:22,041 --> 00:11:26,125 of the exalted attainment of a video of deathless life, 178 00:11:26,666 --> 00:11:30,416 often accompanied at the climax of the practice, with invitations 179 00:11:30,416 --> 00:11:34,791 for the presence of the great guru and his associates, an entourage. 180 00:11:36,500 --> 00:11:36,958 In many 181 00:11:36,958 --> 00:11:42,041 cases, the entire practice is conceived as a guru in perché cycle 182 00:11:42,208 --> 00:11:46,583 with Padma Samovar and his consort mandala of her exemplifying 183 00:11:46,583 --> 00:11:49,750 the attainment of immortality at Mara Tika 184 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,000 and appearing as Amitai mutism consort. 185 00:11:53,125 --> 00:11:55,750 This episode, in which the tantric couple practice 186 00:11:55,750 --> 00:11:59,416 together and receive consecration from the deity in person, 187 00:11:59,750 --> 00:12:03,916 is given in some detail in the Copper Sanctuary Chronicle. 188 00:12:04,041 --> 00:12:07,375 The zoom link revealed by Yang Rel, an oft 189 00:12:07,375 --> 00:12:11,166 repeated in both hagiographic and ritual contexts. 190 00:12:11,541 --> 00:12:14,750 There were variations on how this video of accomplishment 191 00:12:14,750 --> 00:12:18,333 is referenced and rehearsed in longevity practices, contexts. 192 00:12:19,166 --> 00:12:23,333 The historical account given to introduce permalink this longevity cycle, 193 00:12:23,541 --> 00:12:28,625 the Rosary provides a succinct discussion of three episodes, 194 00:12:29,125 --> 00:12:32,666 first, following the receipt of transmissions from the eight 195 00:12:32,666 --> 00:12:38,125 main deities from the eight Vigil Orders and their accomplishment, 196 00:12:39,333 --> 00:12:41,791 as well as receipt of the eight names. 197 00:12:41,791 --> 00:12:45,875 Again, Padma stayed in a charnel ground practicing the Longevity Mandala. 198 00:12:46,583 --> 00:12:50,125 After seven days, when the sun arose over the mountain peak, 199 00:12:50,583 --> 00:12:53,958 the mandala of amortized deities manifested in person 200 00:12:54,208 --> 00:12:58,541 and proclaimed his accomplishment of deathless life. 201 00:12:59,166 --> 00:13:02,458 Second, while practicing in the Rocky Cave, both 202 00:13:02,458 --> 00:13:06,541 he and Mandara attained the Cities of Immortality 203 00:13:06,875 --> 00:13:11,000 and the third, after the consecration of some monastery in Tibet, 204 00:13:11,458 --> 00:13:16,083 Padma opened the Longevity Mandala and yes, she Tokyo attained the state 205 00:13:16,583 --> 00:13:19,583 of the Vigil of Life 206 00:13:19,791 --> 00:13:23,750 is beyond my competence to produce a history of the exact processes 207 00:13:23,750 --> 00:13:27,916 by which the Padma centric vision penetrated and progressed 208 00:13:27,916 --> 00:13:32,333 to taking center stage in human tantric longevity practice. 209 00:13:32,958 --> 00:13:36,416 Here, I would rather focus on a few key sources 210 00:13:36,416 --> 00:13:39,416 in the historical record to build up a picture. 211 00:13:39,625 --> 00:13:43,416 So I'm going back three slides to three that set, 212 00:13:44,458 --> 00:13:46,875 so first, the two young world texts 213 00:13:46,875 --> 00:13:50,291 in embodying the two guitars connect the practice upon the samovar. 214 00:13:50,958 --> 00:13:55,541 At the end of the text in volume six, we're told that it was looking parmigiani 215 00:13:55,708 --> 00:13:59,541 who extracted this summarized mandala of deathless lifespan 216 00:13:59,708 --> 00:14:02,625 from the pooling elixir Tantra. 217 00:14:02,625 --> 00:14:06,083 So the text itself seems to be attributed to Padma Samovar, 218 00:14:06,791 --> 00:14:10,250 the more substantial text in three sections in volume nine, 219 00:14:10,583 --> 00:14:16,083 as several references to Padma Samovar also linking the text and the practice 220 00:14:16,083 --> 00:14:21,000 to look on parmigiani, and in two cases the reference is further 221 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,583 linked to the accomplishment of the state as a vigil of life. 222 00:14:25,166 --> 00:14:29,875 In the first occurrence and aspiration for this vigil, the accomplishment is given. 223 00:14:30,083 --> 00:14:35,333 Just before saying that, look at again Parmigiani did this practice manual, 224 00:14:35,500 --> 00:14:38,791 and on the final occurrence at the end of the text, we are told that 225 00:14:38,791 --> 00:14:43,875 this auspicious longevity accomplishment was done by looking composed again 226 00:14:44,333 --> 00:14:49,708 Campo Parmigiani for the benefit of later generations of yogis 227 00:14:49,708 --> 00:14:55,125 accomplishing the vigil to a lifespan and to lengthen the life of all beings. 228 00:14:55,958 --> 00:14:59,458 So, although we now have no explicit reference to the story of Padma, 229 00:14:59,458 --> 00:15:02,458 some of his accomplishments of the vigil order a lifespan 230 00:15:02,583 --> 00:15:05,666 that it would seem clear that the association is implicit 231 00:15:06,250 --> 00:15:10,375 and would be understood by practitioners of this practice themselves, 232 00:15:10,375 --> 00:15:15,458 aspiring to follow in the great Guru's footsteps and attain this exalted state. 233 00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:19,583 So now I'm jumping back to slides. 234 00:15:22,500 --> 00:15:23,625 To my knowledge, 235 00:15:23,625 --> 00:15:26,958 the earliest surviving practice text in which Guru Pema 236 00:15:27,208 --> 00:15:30,833 becomes the deity on which the amortized longevity practice is 237 00:15:30,833 --> 00:15:35,041 focused, is found in the secret embodiment of the Lama collection 238 00:15:35,875 --> 00:15:40,041 of younger successor, the 13th century Guru Show on. 239 00:15:40,791 --> 00:15:45,083 As I have discussed before, and I have put the reference here, 240 00:15:46,041 --> 00:15:49,458 the significance of this cycle can hardly be overstated. 241 00:15:49,916 --> 00:15:53,833 Here we have the earliest known source for the seven syllable supplication, 242 00:15:54,250 --> 00:15:57,833 as well as a precedent for future lama accomplishment 243 00:15:58,125 --> 00:16:03,625 or nama heart accomplishment cycles, many of which reproduce virtually unchanged 244 00:16:03,625 --> 00:16:08,250 a good deal of the key recitations from the secret embodiment of the lama, 245 00:16:09,375 --> 00:16:11,125 the 10th day dance traditions, 246 00:16:11,125 --> 00:16:15,208 including the dance of the eight aspects or names of the guru, 247 00:16:16,291 --> 00:16:18,166 also primarily to stem from 248 00:16:18,166 --> 00:16:21,166 Groucho Wong's visions and this revealed cycle, 249 00:16:21,958 --> 00:16:24,958 and the earliest known descriptions of the set of eight, 250 00:16:25,208 --> 00:16:28,666 which clearly resemble the later established iconography, 251 00:16:28,833 --> 00:16:31,833 are found in the sacred embodiment of the Lama. 252 00:16:32,791 --> 00:16:35,666 Again, that is not to say that the entire 253 00:16:35,666 --> 00:16:38,666 cycle derives only from guru chairman's visions. 254 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,625 Doubtless, earlier practice materials are integrated. 255 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,000 Briefly, this Lama accomplishment tradition 256 00:16:48,375 --> 00:16:53,000 represents a guru yoga focused on guru remember che as permaculture and Sol 257 00:16:53,291 --> 00:16:56,750 uniting with Yoshi Tokyo and surrounded by the church 258 00:16:56,750 --> 00:17:00,875 and cells of the Buddha families and the eight aspects of the guru. 259 00:17:01,791 --> 00:17:05,166 The main mandala and practice of the sacred embodiment of the Lama 260 00:17:05,416 --> 00:17:10,041 has no mention of army science or of a longevity practice. 261 00:17:10,583 --> 00:17:13,833 However, a fortuitous survival of a collection 262 00:17:13,833 --> 00:17:17,250 is the root revelation of the sacred embodiment of the Lama 263 00:17:17,625 --> 00:17:21,083 includes many further practices of the cycle, 264 00:17:21,416 --> 00:17:23,958 and I've given the references at the top of the slide. 265 00:17:24,916 --> 00:17:27,583 In particular, we find separate sections 266 00:17:27,583 --> 00:17:31,125 for accomplishing the mnemonic Kai Lama, 267 00:17:31,375 --> 00:17:34,416 the Zamboanga Kai Lama, and the Dhammakaya Lama. 268 00:17:35,333 --> 00:17:38,708 The mnemonic I Lama's appearance corresponds quite closely 269 00:17:39,083 --> 00:17:42,750 to what is later called as a whole style of depicting this guru. 270 00:17:43,208 --> 00:17:47,500 While the Zamboanga Kai Lama is again Pema, as Amitai as 271 00:17:48,708 --> 00:17:51,000 this rather detailed practice to accomplish. 272 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,166 The Zamboanga Kaya Lama consists of two texts, 273 00:17:54,458 --> 00:17:57,291 the first of which is called the Zamboanga Kai Guru. 274 00:17:57,291 --> 00:17:58,458 Accomplishment. 275 00:17:58,458 --> 00:18:01,666 The jewel was Revelation Treasury for accomplishing 276 00:18:01,666 --> 00:18:04,666 longevity. 277 00:18:05,458 --> 00:18:07,375 The second is called a commentary, 278 00:18:07,375 --> 00:18:10,708 and it reiterates and clarifies the practice instructions. 279 00:18:11,333 --> 00:18:15,791 Treating the two texts together, we find a series of visuals ations 280 00:18:15,791 --> 00:18:16,541 for the purpose 281 00:18:16,541 --> 00:18:20,833 of gaining the cities of immortality and the state of the deathless. 282 00:18:20,833 --> 00:18:21,666 For Jara, 283 00:18:22,750 --> 00:18:24,291 the first sequence For one's 284 00:18:24,291 --> 00:18:28,333 own practice focuses on oneself as a red sep Army. 285 00:18:28,375 --> 00:18:31,375 Army tires without consort, 286 00:18:31,625 --> 00:18:33,500 holding a lotus at the heart, 287 00:18:33,500 --> 00:18:36,958 and a white longevity flask filled with elixir in the lab. 288 00:18:37,583 --> 00:18:41,375 Although nothing explicit is said about the equation of this army ties 289 00:18:41,375 --> 00:18:42,833 formed Group Groupama, 290 00:18:42,833 --> 00:18:47,166 since this section represents that for accomplishing oneself as the Zamboanga 291 00:18:47,166 --> 00:18:51,708 Kai guru in this secret embodiment context, it is doubtless implicit. 292 00:18:52,291 --> 00:18:55,791 There follows a series of radiating and re absorbing lights, 293 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,541 invoking the Mandala Palace and its inhabitants and absorbing 294 00:18:59,541 --> 00:19:03,125 the essence juice as the Buddha fields and the phenomenal world. 295 00:19:03,833 --> 00:19:08,166 There is a three fold mantra Garland upon three circles of lotus petals 296 00:19:08,500 --> 00:19:12,916 with radiating lights from the seed syllables and the self resounding mantra. 297 00:19:13,375 --> 00:19:15,958 The entire universe is transformed 298 00:19:15,958 --> 00:19:19,500 into army times and harmful forces liberated 299 00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:21,500 at the end. 300 00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:24,333 The essence juice of the natural environment, 301 00:19:24,333 --> 00:19:30,333 the five elements, the life force of all beings, their roaming life span and life 302 00:19:30,333 --> 00:19:33,583 spirit along with the Buddha forms 303 00:19:34,583 --> 00:19:37,583 dissolve into the central seed syllable. 304 00:19:37,708 --> 00:19:42,000 The completion stages effected through the dissolution from the outside 305 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,958 in stages, and finally resting in the natural and contrived state. 306 00:19:48,416 --> 00:19:51,583 The second sequence is especially for empowering others, 307 00:19:51,583 --> 00:19:55,708 and it involves a mandala in front set up with a flask in the center, 308 00:19:55,708 --> 00:19:59,333 which becomes the basis for the deity generated upon the flask. 309 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,041 After the Mandala Palace with all its features is generated, 310 00:20:04,375 --> 00:20:08,458 the jeweled flask arises in the center filled with elixir, 311 00:20:08,458 --> 00:20:12,166 where the five elements above which there is a four petal lotus, 312 00:20:12,416 --> 00:20:16,375 a moon, and the white letter spring, which becomes again 313 00:20:16,375 --> 00:20:21,500 some boga coir amid tires embodying the Buddhas of the three times. 314 00:20:22,083 --> 00:20:25,583 He is white in color, holding a white longevity flask 315 00:20:25,916 --> 00:20:29,291 filled with white elixir, embracing his consort, 316 00:20:29,291 --> 00:20:32,666 whose left hand holds a blue flask filled with elixir. 317 00:20:33,291 --> 00:20:36,625 Above their heads is the Lord of family, the Red Opium 318 00:20:36,958 --> 00:20:40,375 or Amitabha, holding a white longevity flask. 319 00:20:40,875 --> 00:20:45,458 The Buddhas of the Four families appear as respective forms of tip army. 320 00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:48,583 Army times, along with the female Buddhas 321 00:20:48,625 --> 00:20:53,500 and a large retinue, including the various goddesses and swift ladies. 322 00:20:53,916 --> 00:20:57,000 The arduous wishes or enlightened sages, 323 00:20:57,333 --> 00:21:00,083 female doorkeepers, and other groups. 324 00:21:00,083 --> 00:21:03,083 After invitations, frustrations, and offerings 325 00:21:03,375 --> 00:21:06,875 with the longevity mantra, recitation elixir flows 326 00:21:06,875 --> 00:21:09,875 down from the flask via the tawny cord, 327 00:21:10,125 --> 00:21:14,750 filling the bodily channels of oneself and others like milky buttermilk, 328 00:21:15,458 --> 00:21:18,125 the uniting deities produced by the Chitta, 329 00:21:18,125 --> 00:21:22,708 which makes the flask elixir glisten, and a summoning longevity 330 00:21:22,708 --> 00:21:28,375 practice is effected through lights invoking the samya of the deities in time, 331 00:21:28,833 --> 00:21:31,708 and the cities of immortality are granted. 332 00:21:34,041 --> 00:21:35,375 This appearance of 333 00:21:35,375 --> 00:21:40,708 urging Pama as army tires is later repeated not only in the same context 334 00:21:41,666 --> 00:21:46,125 of accomplishment cycles, but also in specifically army 335 00:21:46,125 --> 00:21:49,125 tires, longevity cycles. 336 00:21:52,250 --> 00:21:54,333 I would like now to mention two 14th 337 00:21:54,333 --> 00:21:58,375 century masters who built on these patina centric materials. 338 00:21:59,041 --> 00:22:03,333 Darjeeling Power is the second of a series of seven weavers 339 00:22:03,583 --> 00:22:08,958 identified by dojo member che as producing llama heart accomplishment practices 340 00:22:09,125 --> 00:22:13,041 in continuity with Groucho Wong's secret embodiment of the llama. 341 00:22:14,041 --> 00:22:18,500 Amongst the extensive materials connected with his llama accomplishment cycle 342 00:22:18,833 --> 00:22:22,708 is a text for imbibing the essence of the letter R, 343 00:22:23,541 --> 00:22:26,541 along with a short longevity practice. 344 00:22:27,125 --> 00:22:31,333 The initial meditation for the first text is similar to GU 345 00:22:31,375 --> 00:22:35,375 Future One's flask meditation with the white erg 346 00:22:35,458 --> 00:22:39,291 in in essence, many times in front of oneself. 347 00:22:40,041 --> 00:22:43,708 Here, the longevity mantra is integrated with the opening 348 00:22:43,708 --> 00:22:46,791 of the founder guru mantra that is on our home. 349 00:22:46,791 --> 00:22:47,916 Vajra guru Pema. 350 00:22:48,958 --> 00:22:50,125 The elixir from 351 00:22:50,125 --> 00:22:55,333 the flask held by the guru is in this case breathed in, and sickness 352 00:22:55,333 --> 00:22:58,666 and evil spirits are expelled with the exhalation, 353 00:22:59,333 --> 00:23:03,500 the guru in front dissolves into the letter R in one's own heart, 354 00:23:03,791 --> 00:23:06,791 so that the diet or a lifespan is attained. 355 00:23:07,125 --> 00:23:09,500 In a further section, looking at army 356 00:23:09,500 --> 00:23:13,916 tires in the sky, the longevity mantra is recited 357 00:23:13,916 --> 00:23:17,250 and one bleeds in from the sky so that one's body becomes. 358 00:23:17,250 --> 00:23:22,583 I many times in the deathless form of light, absorbed in clarity and awareness. 359 00:23:23,375 --> 00:23:25,916 The following longevity practice text is again 360 00:23:25,916 --> 00:23:31,125 similar, with a focus on the letter R, the breathing in of the flask 361 00:23:31,125 --> 00:23:34,458 elixir, and the dissolution of the guru in front. 362 00:23:34,958 --> 00:23:39,208 Although here again Pama appears as a red times. 363 00:23:43,833 --> 00:23:44,750 As well as these, 364 00:23:44,750 --> 00:23:48,916 tax dodging lengthens revelation include a separate 365 00:23:48,916 --> 00:23:52,791 longevity cycle, the ventral pull, longevity accomplishment 366 00:23:53,541 --> 00:23:57,958 a practice of imbibing the essence by drinking the essence juice of the sky. 367 00:23:58,250 --> 00:24:02,333 Apparently bundled with the text of this cycle, features 368 00:24:02,333 --> 00:24:06,666 a similar meditation of absorbing essence juice from a white urging Pama 369 00:24:06,666 --> 00:24:09,666 uniting with his consort Red mandala. 370 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,375 Although it's not explicit in this case that they are to be equated 371 00:24:13,375 --> 00:24:16,375 with omitting and consort. 372 00:24:18,083 --> 00:24:20,208 The second 14th century master 373 00:24:20,208 --> 00:24:23,208 who must be mentioned is regarding Gaudium. 374 00:24:23,250 --> 00:24:27,541 These revelations are the fount of the juncture or northern treasures tradition. 375 00:24:28,416 --> 00:24:33,125 His longevity, revelation, the Iron stem was very influential. 376 00:24:33,500 --> 00:24:37,375 It forms a subsection of eating good times, wrathful armor, 377 00:24:37,375 --> 00:24:42,000 heart accomplishment, Revelation Cycle, which has been published in a full volume 378 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:46,375 collection, of which three volumes consist of root source revelation. 379 00:24:47,500 --> 00:24:48,666 The main root 380 00:24:48,666 --> 00:24:51,666 source text is quite short around 381 00:24:52,666 --> 00:24:55,666 20 to 30 pages depending on the version, 382 00:24:55,791 --> 00:25:00,625 but it has outer, inner and secrets and ultra ultra secret sections. 383 00:25:01,291 --> 00:25:05,500 Here I mentioned only that the Ultra Secret section 384 00:25:05,750 --> 00:25:08,583 is focused on meditations on, 385 00:25:08,583 --> 00:25:12,583 repetitions of the syllable frame and the realization 386 00:25:12,583 --> 00:25:17,041 of the deathless primordial wisdom as a Dhammakaya and supreme cities, 387 00:25:17,375 --> 00:25:21,083 while not abandoning one's illusory body of the elements, 388 00:25:21,791 --> 00:25:24,750 it gives a visualization of a red pigment. 389 00:25:24,750 --> 00:25:30,291 So on Sol, wearing a red brocade cloak, holding a flask of nectar 390 00:25:30,583 --> 00:25:33,583 and having a red tree in his heart 391 00:25:33,666 --> 00:25:38,125 after meditating intensely on this one's own body, is self arisen 392 00:25:38,125 --> 00:25:43,166 as the lama and retinue vividly clear but, contrived and effortless 393 00:25:43,333 --> 00:25:47,666 without support, like a great Garuda soaring in space, 394 00:25:48,291 --> 00:25:52,916 one's empty yet clear body is seen actually as touching. 395 00:25:53,250 --> 00:25:57,000 One's voice speaks the Dharma and the Buddha's Buddha. 396 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,000 As the three times is discovered in the mind. 397 00:26:00,583 --> 00:26:05,291 Several video levels are specified as accomplished through this practice. 398 00:26:05,791 --> 00:26:10,208 Note on the slide that given our seminar series, focus on again, 399 00:26:10,791 --> 00:26:15,291 out of interest, I also give a snapshot from this text which purports 400 00:26:15,291 --> 00:26:19,083 to be in the language a virgin must see at the bottom of the slide. 401 00:26:22,750 --> 00:26:25,291 One other, John, in which I practice 402 00:26:25,291 --> 00:26:28,791 texts whose significance cannot be underestimated, 403 00:26:29,166 --> 00:26:33,875 is a seven chapter supplication revealed by talkers on pearl dropper 404 00:26:34,166 --> 00:26:38,250 in the mid 14th century and entrusted to victim goddamn. 405 00:26:39,291 --> 00:26:42,000 These seven chapters are universally recited in 406 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,166 numerous circles on the 10th day, for other occasions, 407 00:26:46,166 --> 00:26:51,083 including the contemporary practice of urgency, palmy cycles. 408 00:26:51,958 --> 00:26:56,208 They rehearse many of the central episodes of the podcast, some of the narratives 409 00:26:56,416 --> 00:26:59,541 connecting them with the related deity cycles. 410 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,708 In the case of lyre practice, there is a tradition for performing 411 00:27:04,708 --> 00:27:07,708 an ultra short version of the deity practice 412 00:27:07,791 --> 00:27:10,583 by combining a single verse lineage supplication 413 00:27:10,583 --> 00:27:14,875 from the chapter requested by nun, finding to a guru supplication 414 00:27:14,875 --> 00:27:18,625 from the chapter requested by nun on doji, bhajan 415 00:27:18,625 --> 00:27:23,166 and a main practice verse from the chapter requested by the king to on that song. 416 00:27:23,791 --> 00:27:28,208 Although I have no idea if the seven chapters is actually drawn on 417 00:27:28,541 --> 00:27:32,041 for a short do che related amortized practice. 418 00:27:32,458 --> 00:27:35,916 Yet a similar extract epitomizing the central themes 419 00:27:36,083 --> 00:27:40,708 could also be made with verses from these same three sections, 420 00:27:41,666 --> 00:27:45,166 and I give the page reference now, 421 00:27:45,166 --> 00:27:49,458 with from from this, from this book. 422 00:27:49,458 --> 00:27:53,750 But obviously there were so many versions of the, the seven chapters 423 00:27:53,750 --> 00:27:56,750 so they could be found elsewhere 424 00:27:58,083 --> 00:27:58,625 here. 425 00:27:58,625 --> 00:28:03,083 The episode of PMA, Johnny's attainment of the video of immortal life 426 00:28:03,083 --> 00:28:06,541 in the rocky cave of Motueka takes center stage. 427 00:28:09,375 --> 00:28:12,791 At this point, I move to the towering figure of Ratna Linker, 428 00:28:13,208 --> 00:28:14,666 who in the 15th century 429 00:28:14,666 --> 00:28:18,250 completed the first collection of the ancient Tantra collection 430 00:28:18,958 --> 00:28:23,125 on and whose revelations are said to have encompassed the revelations 431 00:28:23,125 --> 00:28:27,166 of three lifetimes in the town of revelation, traditions. 432 00:28:27,416 --> 00:28:31,833 Practicing practices deriving from several of his cycles remain popular, 433 00:28:32,458 --> 00:28:37,458 as well as indirect impacts of his writings on future traditions. 434 00:28:37,708 --> 00:28:39,708 We witnessed direct adoption 435 00:28:39,708 --> 00:28:43,500 of some of his revolutionary texts into later revelation cycles, 436 00:28:43,500 --> 00:28:48,166 and into compilations of different cycles, focus on the same deities. 437 00:28:49,041 --> 00:28:52,041 In the case of Ergon, so far May practices, 438 00:28:52,041 --> 00:28:56,500 three of his revelation cycles contain relevant materials. 439 00:29:01,125 --> 00:29:01,541 Ratna. 440 00:29:01,541 --> 00:29:04,708 Linker is the third of the seven reveal, as revealed by does 441 00:29:04,750 --> 00:29:07,916 remember che for his llama heart accomplishment cycle. 442 00:29:07,916 --> 00:29:11,333 Following in a direct line starting with Guru Cho on sacred 443 00:29:11,333 --> 00:29:15,458 embodiment of the Lama, his heart accomplishment. 444 00:29:15,458 --> 00:29:20,458 The Embodied Ultra Essence has a similar three kyr structure 445 00:29:21,291 --> 00:29:24,291 to that found in the secret embodiment of the Lama, 446 00:29:24,500 --> 00:29:29,000 and likewise the cycle contains some Pogacar Lama sadhana. 447 00:29:29,500 --> 00:29:35,291 So this, subtly, shows all three, as it were, mnemonic, Maya. 448 00:29:35,291 --> 00:29:40,166 And then on the head, the, Sambo, the tiger, and then, Dhammakaya above. 449 00:29:40,625 --> 00:29:43,708 And then we also have the individual ones. 450 00:29:43,708 --> 00:29:47,458 This one is the, the Dhammakaya lama. 451 00:29:48,500 --> 00:29:51,416 This one is the mnemonic Higher Lama. 452 00:29:51,416 --> 00:29:53,250 And here is the sun. 453 00:29:53,250 --> 00:29:56,000 Bogota Lama. 454 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,000 There is a visualization of oneself as Red Army tires, with the Sam 455 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,291 Bogota costume holding a longevity flask and uniting with his consort Gemma, 456 00:30:05,375 --> 00:30:08,791 conjurer, naked with ornaments, a curved knife 457 00:30:08,791 --> 00:30:12,208 and a longevity flask on the crown of their heads. 458 00:30:12,208 --> 00:30:16,458 Since again when perchance palming colored like coral 459 00:30:16,708 --> 00:30:20,000 with the Sam Bogota costume, together with his consort. 460 00:30:20,750 --> 00:30:24,750 Lights radiate to the Buddhas, and their consecration is like milk 461 00:30:24,916 --> 00:30:29,875 dripped down into the flasks, filling them with the elixir of immortality. 462 00:30:30,500 --> 00:30:34,375 Light rays again radiate, this time to gods wishes and cities 463 00:30:34,375 --> 00:30:36,500 with power over life. 464 00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:40,250 The lifeforce syllable, knowing the essence juice 465 00:30:40,250 --> 00:30:43,291 of the four syllables and the whole of space 466 00:30:43,291 --> 00:30:47,416 drips down into the elixir, and the liquid boils. 467 00:30:47,916 --> 00:30:49,541 The lama begins. 468 00:30:49,541 --> 00:30:54,708 A palm is supplicating to pacify harmful forces and grant consecration, 469 00:30:55,291 --> 00:30:59,000 having expelled the stale air, while meditates on the body 470 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,500 empty, empty, and limpid with hindrances. 471 00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:08,583 Purified elixir overflows and vapor rises from the flask of the Lama. 472 00:31:08,583 --> 00:31:10,958 Army retires on the crown of the head, 473 00:31:10,958 --> 00:31:15,250 and furthermore, the union of the lama and council produces white 474 00:31:15,250 --> 00:31:21,083 and red vital essences which flow down, filling one's body and spilling over. 475 00:31:22,375 --> 00:31:23,416 Following the mantra 476 00:31:23,416 --> 00:31:26,500 recitation, the full empowerments are received 477 00:31:26,750 --> 00:31:29,958 and the lama, amid tears, enters one's own heart. 478 00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:35,416 The green life for syllable neri is within a flask in the center 479 00:31:35,416 --> 00:31:38,416 of a golden cross, Vajra in his heart, 480 00:31:38,666 --> 00:31:41,125 with radiating and returning lights. 481 00:31:41,125 --> 00:31:44,833 The essence juice of samsara and nirvana drips down. 482 00:31:44,916 --> 00:31:48,625 Stilling one's body, one dissolves into the lama 483 00:31:48,625 --> 00:31:51,750 in the heart, who dissolves into the seed syllable, 484 00:31:52,250 --> 00:31:55,958 instantly endowed with the pride of being the enlightened form. 485 00:31:56,208 --> 00:32:00,375 This becomes an upright, unchanging, five spoke vajra. 486 00:32:01,500 --> 00:32:05,250 This practice is guaranteed to achieve the desired or longevity. 487 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,375 A further practice in this text involves visualizing oneself as many times 488 00:32:10,375 --> 00:32:14,333 with consort as before, and the five Buddhas and their consorts 489 00:32:14,333 --> 00:32:18,000 at the chakras inside the body, lights radiate, 490 00:32:18,166 --> 00:32:22,375 and in turn one absorbs the essence juice of space, water, 491 00:32:22,375 --> 00:32:26,791 fire, earth, and wind, stabilizing the five in the elements 492 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,000 and bringing the attainment of the video to a lifespan. 493 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,000 This is said to be the 494 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,000 ultimate essence practice list affecting the sun. 495 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,958 Boga Tai guru done by the enlightened scholar at urgent time. 496 00:32:38,958 --> 00:32:41,958 A young man. 497 00:32:43,583 --> 00:32:48,250 The first of the Ratna links to specifically longevity cycles. 498 00:32:48,250 --> 00:32:51,250 The founder of Rosary longevity accomplishment 499 00:32:51,500 --> 00:32:55,958 has a historical account which highlights the role of the great gurus around 500 00:32:56,458 --> 00:33:00,208 it recounts at length the occasion where again gives teachings 501 00:33:00,208 --> 00:33:05,291 to the 25 disciples that a simple amortize comes in person. 502 00:33:05,625 --> 00:33:10,375 The elixir water is drunk and the disciples gain accomplishment. 503 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,125 The cycle contains out it in and secret sections, 504 00:33:14,416 --> 00:33:19,375 all of which feature against the common in the outer practice 505 00:33:19,708 --> 00:33:22,708 from the syllable home radiating light rays. 506 00:33:23,125 --> 00:33:27,000 One is generated as Amitabh times in some book costume 507 00:33:27,416 --> 00:33:30,416 within his celestial palace. 508 00:33:30,458 --> 00:33:33,916 Above the ground of the head sits, sits against a palm 509 00:33:33,916 --> 00:33:37,041 in his complexion, white with a little red, 510 00:33:38,208 --> 00:33:39,666 holding a flask filled with 511 00:33:39,666 --> 00:33:43,583 the elixir of deathless primordial wisdom offering. 512 00:33:43,583 --> 00:33:46,583 Goddesses are in the cardinal directions 513 00:33:46,666 --> 00:33:50,750 both the main deities and one's own heart has the syllable free. 514 00:33:51,208 --> 00:33:54,500 There is a similar series of meditations for those in the Lama 515 00:33:54,541 --> 00:33:58,375 accomplishment practice with the essence juice of the Buddha's body, 516 00:33:58,375 --> 00:34:02,791 speech and mind lifespan, as well as the essence juice 517 00:34:03,833 --> 00:34:08,083 of the elements and medicines dropping into the flasks of the deities 518 00:34:08,083 --> 00:34:11,125 and retinue, which are filled to overflowing with wise 519 00:34:11,125 --> 00:34:14,291 elixir absorbed into one's own body. 520 00:34:14,541 --> 00:34:17,666 Once trackers have failed and illness is purified, 521 00:34:18,208 --> 00:34:21,375 the vajra like body of immutable life is gained 522 00:34:21,791 --> 00:34:25,583 and the lama and oneself, as amethyst, become inseparable. 523 00:34:26,541 --> 00:34:29,166 The main mantra combines the mantra guru 524 00:34:29,166 --> 00:34:32,166 and the longevity mantra. 525 00:34:33,375 --> 00:34:33,833 The inner 526 00:34:33,833 --> 00:34:38,083 practice has a few variations on the outer practice oneself 527 00:34:38,083 --> 00:34:42,000 as how many times is this time in union with the consort, red in color, 528 00:34:43,166 --> 00:34:44,875 who carries a silk longevity. 529 00:34:44,875 --> 00:34:46,666 Arrow and flask. 530 00:34:46,666 --> 00:34:50,166 The Buddhas and their consorts in the directional forms of tires 531 00:34:50,166 --> 00:34:56,291 make up the immediate retinue, with goddesses and swift ladies beyond above. 532 00:34:56,333 --> 00:35:00,791 Lama urging sip on May's consort is this time specified 533 00:35:00,791 --> 00:35:05,500 as the mistress of lifespan, the primordial wisdom conjured so Kyo, 534 00:35:05,916 --> 00:35:08,916 who has a white complexion with a little red. 535 00:35:09,625 --> 00:35:14,000 There is similar absorption of the essence juice of life span pooling. 536 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,458 Elixir pooling as elixir as before. 537 00:35:17,833 --> 00:35:21,250 In this case, for the rituals for summoning lifespan 538 00:35:21,250 --> 00:35:25,333 and for imbibing, cities are enacted again, white 539 00:35:25,333 --> 00:35:29,500 and red vital essences from the union of the man and female deities 540 00:35:29,791 --> 00:35:32,875 fall as a continuous stream, filling one's body. 541 00:35:34,041 --> 00:35:38,166 The section for the secret practice suggests a solitary retreat environment, 542 00:35:38,416 --> 00:35:41,250 in which the boundaries are drawn at the outset. 543 00:35:41,250 --> 00:35:43,708 The meditation here is oneself as a red. 544 00:35:43,708 --> 00:35:46,708 Some Pogacar form amid tires, 545 00:35:46,791 --> 00:35:49,041 while in the heart is a crossfader 546 00:35:49,041 --> 00:35:54,250 sun and moon discs and a lotus of bath, which is again so harmony 547 00:35:54,291 --> 00:35:58,208 with consort shining red like coral in his heart. 548 00:35:58,208 --> 00:36:03,750 Is the red syllable free, which is in which is Nestle the green knowing, 549 00:36:04,083 --> 00:36:07,375 and in the eye of the letter, not a white 550 00:36:07,375 --> 00:36:10,541 letter, are of unchanging lifespan. 551 00:36:11,458 --> 00:36:14,083 There are similar visualizations to those earlier 552 00:36:14,083 --> 00:36:17,250 for absorbing the essence, juices and vital essences, 553 00:36:17,458 --> 00:36:21,208 with additional meditations focusing on the seed syllables. 554 00:36:24,333 --> 00:36:25,958 The second of 555 00:36:25,958 --> 00:36:28,916 that Latin link, plus longevity cycles 556 00:36:28,916 --> 00:36:32,208 is the embodied secret longevity accomplishment. 557 00:36:32,916 --> 00:36:36,458 In this case, the outer and secret sections of the practice 558 00:36:36,458 --> 00:36:39,791 are less explicitly against parliamentary practices. 559 00:36:40,416 --> 00:36:43,708 The lineage invocations in the outer practice 560 00:36:43,708 --> 00:36:47,375 reiterate the attainment of immortality by looping Parmigiani 561 00:36:47,750 --> 00:36:50,375 and the control princess Mandara 562 00:36:50,375 --> 00:36:53,375 in the rocky cave of
