3.13
He gives thought to all and mentally recites the mantra:
‘On account of the power of my merit, the power of the Tathāgata’s
empowerment,
And the power of the Dharma realm pervading the realms of beings,
May the objectives that they seek all be beneficial to them
And may whatever they think of be all accomplished as appropriate!’”
At this the Bhagavān then uttered the vidyārājñī “Equal to Empty Space in Power and Proceeding from the Treasury of Empty Space (Gaganagañja)”:
Namaḥ sarvatathāgatebhyo viśvamukhebhyaḥ, sarvathā khamudgate spharahīmaṃ gaganakaṃ svāhā. (Homage to all Tathāgatas in all directions! O you who have come forth from space in every way! Spread through this sky! svāhā!) [141]
“If one recites this three times, everything will be accomplished in accordance with whatever good wishes one has made.
At the full of the moon the practitioner next engages in the
performance of recitation,
On a mountain peak, inside a cow pen, in a cemetery, or on a river
sandbar,
At a crossroads, at the foot of a solitary tree, or in a shrine of the
Mātṛs.
With everything the color of the vajra (i.e., yellow), solemnly
purified, and like a vajra,
The obstructors inside [this maṇḍala] are subjugated, their minds
confused.
It is square right around with one entrance and a passageway;
Vajras are linked together [around the perimeter] in the manner of
an adamantine coupling.
In the entrances are the two guards Durdharṣa and Abhimukha,
Pointing their hands with the [index] fingers raised [menacingly],
their eyes red, and wrathful in appearance.
[The practitioner] carefully draws in the corners the seals of a śūla
(trident) with fiery light;
In the center is a fine adamantine seat, correctly aligned with the
[four] quarters,
On top of which is a large lotus flower with eight petals and spread
with stamens.
He should bind the adamantine wisdom seal of Vajrapāṇi,
And bowing down to all the buddhas, he repeatedly makes firm
his vows,
And he should protect the site and purify the drug or [other] article
[to be effectuated].
That night he recites, pure and unobstructed;
Either in the middle watch of the night or when the sun rises,
The drug or [other] article will be transformed with a circle of light
shining brightly all around.
