7.71

Similarly enter [the Buddha’s] own body and also issue forth likewise.

On a lotus to the right of the Buddha you should visualize your

own deity,

And on the left place the striving hero Vajradhara with his attendants.

On flowery pedestals in front and behind are vast multitudes of

bodhisattvas

Who bring benefit to beings, such as those who will succeed to the

position [of a buddha] after one more birth.

On the right side below the flowery seat is the mantrin’s place.

If you worship Mañjuśrī, place the letter of no-self (Maṃ) in the

center [of the lotus]:

This letter will be transformed into the person [of Mañjuśrī] as in

the earlier visualization.

The seed heart[-mantra] of Mañjuśrī is: Namaḥ samantabuddhānāṃ,

maṃ. [278 = 82]

In the case of Avalokiteśvara or Vajrasattva,

Maitreya, Samantabhadra, Kṣitigarbha, [Sarva]nīvaraṇaviṣkambhin,

Buddhalocanā, Pāṇḍaravāsinī, Tārā, Bhṛkuṭī,

Māmakī, Śaṃkara, Golden Wheel (i.e., cakravartin), Hayagrīva,

Vidyādharas, male and female messengers, wrathful [deities],

and servants

Follow your desires in transforming them [from their seed-syllables]

according to the earlier method.

In order to make their minds rejoice, offer up external unguent,

flowers,

Lamps and argha water, all as explained in the main teachings.

Use Acala to remove sullies, ward off [obstacles], cause effulgence,

Empower yourself in your own rite, and protect your own person;

For binding the boundaries in all directions, alternatively use

Trailokyavijaya.

Invoke [the deities] in accordance with the seals and mantras used

in the main teachings,

And [alternatively] in conjunction with this general seal and king

of mantras.

The mantra of the holy one Acalanātha is: Namaḥ samantavajrāṇāṃ, caṇḍamahāroṣaṇa sphoṭaya hūṃ traṭ hāṃ māṃ. (Homage to all Vajras! O you who are violent and very wrathful! rend! hūṃ traṭ hāṃ māṃ!)146 [279; cf. 63] <You should recite this three times.>

You should form adamantine fists with both the left and right hands,

And extend the middle fingers and forefingers straight out, while the

thumbs hold down the little and ring fingers.
