大毘盧遮那成佛神變加持經 (Shubhakarasimha & Yixing 724) 5.69

5.69

Then Bhagavān Vairocana, out of pity for beings, spoke these verses:

Excellent, O Striving Hero, Vajradhara of great virtue!

The special precepts of which you have spoken were expounded by

buddhas of yore.

The precepts that arise in dependence on vidyās—abide in these

precepts like a perfectly awakened one,

And they will bring about the accomplishment of siddhi for the

benefit of the world. Generating the truth of the self, and without engendering any

doubting thoughts, One always abides in mental equipoise, and [then] the cultivation of

the precepts will end. If the bodhi-mind and dharmas, as well as training, action, and results, Are combined into a single characteristic, one will be far removed

from all activities; One will be like the Buddha’s knowledge in one’s possession of the

precepts, and anyone who does otherwise does not possess the

precepts. One will gain sovereignty over all dharmas and master how to

benefit beings, And if one always cultivates the practice of nonattachment, pebbles

and jewels will be alike. When one reaches a full lakṣa or the number of mantra [recitations]

explained, Or when one completes the [prescribed] period, the length [of time]

for [observing] the prohibitory precepts comes to an end. First, with the meditation on the golden (i.e., earth) circle, and

the body, And when one month has passed, the practitioner will be able to

control his breath going out and coming in. Next, in the second month, carefully arranging himself in the water

circle, He should use the lotus-flower seal and imbibe pure water. Next, in the third month, with the meditation on the most wondrous

fire circle, He eats food which he has not sought out, and for the seal he uses

the great wisdom sword; He will burn up all sins produced by body, speech, and mind. In the fourth month, with [the meditation on] the wind circle,

the practitioner constantly ingests wind,

And binding the seal for turning the Dharma wheel, he recites with

his mind concentrated. With the meditation on the adamantine (i.e., earth) and water circles,

he abides in yoga: This is in the fifth month, and far removed from gain and non-gain, The practitioner, without attachment, becomes like a saṃbuddha. Combining the wind and fire circles, and beyond all faults,
