(Homage to all Buddhas! Laughter, smiling.) \[138\] The mantra of humans (manuṣya): Namaḥ samantabuddhānāṃ, icchā- paraṃ manomaye me svāhā. (Homage to all Buddhas! That which is intent upon desire, O you who consist of mind! for me, svāhā!) \[139\] “Lord of Mysteries, I have finished proclaiming all these mantras. You should listen attentively \[now\] to the essence of all these mantras: it is the letter-gateway A. Thinking on this essence of all mantras is quite unsur- passed: it is where all mantras reside, and herein do mantras obtain certainty \[of efficacy\].” \[End of\] Fascicle Two of the Scripture of the Enlightenment, Supernatural Transformations, Chapter V Mundane Accomplishment Thereupon the World-honored One again addressed the vajradhara Lord of Mysteries, uttering these verses: \[If one practices\] in accordance with the mantra teachings, one will accomplish that result. The letter should intercorrespond with the letter, and the base likewise with the base. Performing mental visualization, one recites \[the mantra\], well abiding, one lakṣa (one hundred thousand) \[times\]. The first “letter” is the bodhi-mind, and the second is called “sound.” One thinks of the \[first\] “base” as one’s deity and locates it in one’s own person; The second “base” one should know to be the excellent base of the buddhas. The practitioner visualizes residing there a lunar disc, quite round and clear, In the middle of which he conscientiously contemplates the letters \[of the mantra\] in their proper order, Placing the letters and words in the center and imagining that he purifies his life. By “life” is meant “wind,” and his thoughts follow the breath going out and coming in. Having purified these, he performs the rite of preliminary recitation. - [Previous: 2.267](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.2.267) - [Next: 3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.3.5) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-mt.2.299) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大毘盧遮那成佛神變加持經 (Śubhakarasiṃha & Yixing 724)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh.2.299) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.2.299](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.2.299) · Pramāṇa
