“Lord of Mysteries, the path of these letter-gateways is a gateway to the

Dharma involving skill [in these letters], whereby one progressively comes to

abide in the mantra path; it is empowered by the supernatural power of all

Tathāgatas, one will [thereby] fully comprehend the path of the Perfectly All-

knowing One, and it represents the dance of bodhisattva practices. The World-

honored Buddhas of the past, future, and present have taught it, will teach it,

and are now teaching it. Lord of Mysteries, as I now survey buddha fields

everywhere, there is none where I do not see this all-pervading gateway to

the Dharma, nor is there any among the Tathāgatas who does not proclaim

it. Therefore, Lord of Mysteries, if they wish to understand [mantra rites],

bodhisattvas cultivating bodhisattva practices via the gateway of mantras

should diligently train in this all-pervading gateway to the Dharma.

“If one adds initials, medials, and finals to ka, ca, ṭa, ta, and pa and thereby

enters the varieties of mental equipoise, one will spontaneously attain the

bodhi-mind, practice, the accomplishment of full and perfect awakening, and

parinirvāṇa. These letter-gateways explained [above], when combined with

ritual instructions for mantras, may be accompanied by initials, medials, and finals. If a mantrin knows this, he will obtain mastery according to [the inclinations of] his mind. He should employ every single one of these phrases with resolve, and if he understands them with intelligence, he will be granted an unsurpassed and special state. In this way does the wheel of letters revolve from a single wheel. On account of having understood this, the mantrin will always illuminate the world like the World-honored One Vairocana and turn the Dharma wheel.”
