2.2
At that time, the Bhagavān said to Vajrapāṇi:
"There is an all-pervading, extremely profound, secret Dharma-door;
for one who abides in these syllable-doors, activities are swiftly accomplished.
Raising the hands with the jeweled crown mudrā (five-spoked), distribute the wheel over the limbs of the body:
between the brows, at the throat, heart, and navel, from the syllable A to SA-HA,
turning clockwise and joining one another, the initial practice and the fruit are perfect quiescence.
Upāyas everywhere, outside the body like blazing light,
the twelve syllables from I onward are dispersed and arranged on the outside."
2.20
The bodhicitta samādhi clause mantra says:
2.22
The bodhi practice generating wisdom mantra says:
2.24
The mantra for perfecting bodhi and completing deficiencies says:
2.26
The peaceful nirvāṇa mantra says:
2.28
“Lord of Secrets! Such syllable-doors are consecrated by the supernatural power of the Tathāgata. As I now look universally upon the buddha-lands, there is none where I do not see this all-pervading Dharma-door, and none of those Tathāgatas fails to expound it. Practitioners cultivating bodhisattva practices in the mantra door should diligently cultivate and study this Dharma-door, adding to one another the initial, middle, and final [syllables] of ka, ca, ṭa, ta, and pa; through the mutual penetration of samādhi categories, they naturally attain bodhicitta practices and realize equal and perfect enlightenment, turning the wheel of the Dharma like the World-Honoured One Mahāvairocana.”
2.29
At that time, the World-Honoured One arose from the samāpatti samādhi and addressed the Lord of Secrets: “Good son, listen closely! In the inner mind maṇḍala, the ground of that body is the self-nature of the dharmadhātu; it is consecrated through the consecration of mantras and secret mudrās because its original nature is pure. Because it is guarded and maintained by the karmavajra, it purifies all dust and defilements, faults such as self, person, sentient being, and soul. The square altar has four gates opening westwards with paths running all around; inside manifests a mind-born king of great eight-petaled lotuses, sending up stems and blooming with stamens, colorful and exquisite. Within it is the Tathāgata, the most supremely distinguished body of all worlds, transcending the stages of body, speech, and mind to reach the stage of the mind, attaining the fruit of extraordinary joy. Upon the eight petals are Ratnaketu Tathāgata, Saṃkusumitarāja Tathāgata, Amitāyus Tathāgata, Dundubhisvararāja Tathāgata, Samantabhadra, Mañjuśrī, Avalokiteśvara, and the honored Maitreya; among all the stamens, the mothers of buddhas and bodhisattvas, the six pāramitās, and their samaya retinues adorn themselves; below are arranged all the vidyādhara wrathful hosts, with the Bodhisattva Vajradhara Lord of Secrets serving as the stem, dwelling in an inexhaustible great ocean; all the terrestrial devas and so forth, immeasurable in number, encircle it. At that time, in order to accomplish the samaya, the practitioner should offer mind-born fragrant flowers, lamp lights, powdered incense, and various food and drink, presenting all of them.” The udāna says:
2.30
The mantra practitioner, sincere and true, paints the maṇḍala,
making his own body the great self, with the syllable RA purifying all defilements.
Abiding in the yoga seat, he continuously contemplates all Tathāgatas,
transmitting to the crowns of the disciples the syllable A with the great void bindu.
The wise one transmits the wondrous flower, causing it to be cast upon his own body,
and explains what is seen within, the object of devotion for the practitioner.
Because this is the supreme altar, one should bestow the samaya.
2.31
The maṇḍala has three tiers: inside the golden wheel are the second and third central stations; the syllable AḤ is in the third tier, yellow-yellow-white, upāyas everywhere.
2.32
At that time, Vajrapāṇi ascended to the contemplation of the Dharma-equality of the body, speech, and mind stages of the World-Honoured One Mahāvairocana, and mindful of future sentient beings, in order to sever all doubts, spoke the great king of mantras (abiding in the contemplation of the equality of the dharmadhātu):
2.34
At that time, the World-Honoured One Vairocana again surveyed the great assembly and addressed the Vajradhara Lord of Secrets, saying: "Son of the Buddha! There are eight secret mudrās that are most secret, sharing the same majestic power as the rank of the noble deities. Taking their own mantra paths as emblems, depict their maṇḍalas in correspondence with the primary deities. If bodhisattvas cultivate bodhisattva practices in the mantra gate according to the Dharma teachings, they should know in this manner that their own bodies abide firmly and unshakeably in the forms of the primary deities. Having known the primary deities, they abide like the primary deities and attain siddhi. What are the eight mudrās?
2.35
"Ratnaketu has the color of the sun's brilliance, / triangular and endowed with radiance. / Lotus hands joined, disperse earth and wind; / blooming in pure golden color. / The syllable vaṃ has vajra light; / the wind wheels bend into the space. / Amitābha is of true golden color; / a moon wheel is encircled by padma lotuses, / blooming into wondrous lotus flowers. / In the Dundubhisvara maṇḍala, / a half-moon is enclosed by the space dot; / the pair of earth fingers enter the full moon. / In the Samantabhadra maṇḍala, / a full moon is encircled by vajras; / lotus hands erect the two space fingers. / Avalokiteśvara has the color of crystal; / with a rainbow-colored vajra banner, / as before, bend the fire wheels (back to back like hooks). / Mañjuśrī is of saffron-gold color; / space is encircled by variegated colors; / a blue lotus opens the fire wheels. / Maitreya is of yellow-gold color; / space uses blue dots; / the vajra palms rotate (with palms pressed together)."

2.52
At that time, the World-Honoured One again abided in unimpeded power over the three times, relying on the inconceivable power of the Tathāgata's adhiṣṭhāna and relying on the samādhi of the pure adorned treasury. Thereupon, from within samāpatti, the World-Honoured One emitted the inexhaustible verbal expressions of the inexhaustible realm, and through the power of the dharmadhātu and the unequalled power of complete enlightenment, with a single sound flowing out into four places, permeated the entire dharmadhātu, equal to space and reaching everywhere.
2.53
The mantra is (the fundamental mudrā is secretly transmitted from the master):
2.55
Then, abiding in the samādhi of the arising of wisdom, he spoke the Mantra of the Pervasive Illumination of a Hundred Lights Arising from Various Skilful Wisdoms (with vajra palms, extend arms above the crown of the head, occasionally shaking them):
2.57
"Lord of Secrets! These are called the Tathāgata's secret mudrās. Being the supreme secrets, they should not be conferred rashly on people, except for those who have received abhiṣeka, whose natures are gentle and compliant, who are diligent and steadfast, who give rise to extraordinary vows, revere their masters, are mindful of kindness and virtue, are pure inside and outside, and would sacrifice their own lives to seek the Dharma.
2.58
"Furthermore, Lord of Secrets! The Tathāgata maṇḍala / is like a pure full moon, / inside manifesting the color of a conch shell. / The triangle of all Buddhas / rests upon a white lotus, / with the space dot as its emblem, / encircled by vajra mudrās. / From that king of mantras, / light radiates all around. / As the Buddha sat beneath the Bodhi tree, / he held this to subdue the four Māras. / It is named the Universal Knowledge Mudrā, / capable of providing many merits / and generating kings of many samādhis, / Gayākāśyapa and Uruvilvākāśyapa. / Next, in its northern corner, / the mother of all Buddhas, the Guide, / shining in true golden color, / with plain white garments as her clothing, / illuminating all around like sunlight, / abides in samādhi through correct absorption. / Furthermore, the seventy koṭis / of Buddha-mothers, bodhisattvas, and so forth. / Next, in that southern direction, / the Great Valiant Bodhisattva, / Great Bliss, Amogha, / the Gem of the Vajra Samādhi, / and the bodhisattvas who rescue the world; / the mudrā of the noble deities of great virtue / is named Fulfilling All Vows, / the cintāmaṇi jewel / resting upon a white lotus."

"Furthermore, Lord of Secrets, I now explain the second maṇḍala:
strictly square in shape, encircled by vajra mudrās,
everything of wondrous golden color, with a lotus blossoming at the inner heart;
on the central dais appears a kalaśa, radiant like the pure moon,
also adorned all around with the great void bindu.
Above, it displays the great wind mudrā, billowy like dark clouds,
with the appearance of fluttering banners, with the void bindu as its emblem.
Above that, fierce flames arise, like the fire of the kalpa's destruction,
forming a triangle, enclosed by three angles.
The garland of light surrounds it entirely, colored like the morning sun's rays;
within this is a dhūma, crimson-black like the kalpa fire.
Above it is the vajra mudrā, radiating brilliant flames,
upheld by the sound of the syllable Hūṃ, the supreme and wondrous seed-syllable.
The past Buddhas declared this to be your maṇḍala of valiant exertion,
the assembly of wrathful vajras. Next, arrange the first row in the east:

"The family mother Māmakī also holds a firm wisdom pestle (three-spoked),
adorned about her body with necklaces. To her right is Vajrasūcī,
surrounded by a host of messengers, smiling as they look up together,
holding a single-spoked, firm, sharp wisdom [pestle], with hands internally bound and extending the wind wheel (the space [finger] enters).
To the left is placed Śaṅkhalā, holding a vajra chain,
together with all the messengers of her own family, her body light yellow,
with the wisdom pestle as her emblem, the four wheels crossing each other,
revolving wisdom over concentration. Below Vajradhara,
is wrathful Trailokyavijaya, the subduer of great obstacles,
named the Venerable Candratilaka, showing three eyes and four fangs,
the color of summer rainclouds, uttering the roaring laugh of aṭṭahāsa.
Adorned with vajra-jeweled necklaces, for the sake of gathering and protecting sentient beings,
he is surrounded by immeasurable multitudes, with up to a hundred thousand hands,
holding various weapons. Wrathful ones such as these
all abide within lotus blossoms. According with the previous vajra chain,
the two space [fingers] open and hold the wind [fingers]. The Vajra Earth-Holders
form internal binding with vajra fists (both space [fingers] erect together, the two elbows close and held slightly high to resemble the shape of a mallet, looking to the right as if striking in wrath).
Wrathful Kuṇḍalī is translucent like blue-green beryl,
his majestic radiance like the fire of the aeon's end, blazing brightly with the sun disc at his back,
with knit brows, a smiling yet wrathful countenance, tiger fangs shown above and below,
a thousand eyes unblinking, his majestic splendor intense like the sun,
his thousand hands each grasping various vajra weapons,
his head crowned with vajra jewels, with dragon necklaces and a tiger-skin skirt,
situated within a moon disc, seated on a lapis-lazuli boulder.
Wrathful Kumāra abides upon a blue lotus,
his body colored like a yellow cloud, his hair red and disheveled upward,
adorned on his body with necklaces and bracelets, wearing a tiger skin around his hips,
holding the wisdom pestle and the concentration fearlessness [mudrā]; as soon as he maintains the mantra phrases,
transformed Buddhas issue from his mouth. Next, Ucchuṣma
assumes a greatly wrathful form, blazing with black-gold radiance,
his right holding a sword and below a lasso, a club and a three-spoked trident,
all weapons bursting into flames. Vajras who carry out commands and so forth,
with leaders such as these, in numbers as many as the dust motes of ten Buddha-lands,
are gathered together with the host of Vajradharas."

The mantra of Vajrapāṇi Bodhisattva abiding in the great vajra unconquerable samādhi (having no equal or comparison, it is called 'unconquerable'; because he directly awakens to the vajra substance of all Buddhas and can uphold the Tathāgata's wisdom, he is named Vajradhara) is (internally bound five-spoke mudrā, named Vajrapāṇi):

2.203
The mantra of all Vajras who carry out commands is (all vajra bodhisattvas of the Tathāgata's three families share these messengers in common, meaning that this mantra attends beside the main deity, carrying out orders back and forth according to whatever is to be done. As above, entering the vajra unconquerable samādhi).

"Next, go to the west and paint immeasurable Vajradharas,
with various vajra mudrās, their forms and colors distinct from one another,
universally emitting round, pure radiance for the sake of all sentient beings.
In the center place the Venerable Prajñā, in the Acala Maṇḍala,
the wind wheel together with fire. Relying on the Nairṛti direction,
below Mahāvairocana Tathāgata, is the messenger of the Tathāgata Acala,
holding a wisdom sword and lasso, his topknot hair hanging down over the left shoulder,
gazing intently with one eye, his body majestic, wrathful, and fiercely blazing,
peacefully abiding upon a boulder, with water-wave marks on his mouth,
filled with a boyish form, with a blazing fire-element mudrā.
In the wind direction is the wrathful venerable one, namely Trailokyavijaya,
surrounded by fierce flames, with a jewel crown and holding a vajra (five-spoked),
disregarding his own physical life, devotedly requesting and receiving instructions.
To the right of Prajñā is placed Yamāntaka, the Majestic Wrathful King,
riding upon a blue water-buffalo seat, holding various weapons,
with human skulls as necklaces, a head crown and a tiger-skin skirt,
his entire body blazing identically, looking around in the four directions
like a lion's pounce. Next to the right is Trailokyavijaya."

The mantra of Trailokyavijaya Vajra is (The Tathāgata abides in the samādhi of contemplating the high peak of the Dharma banner, subduing the sentient beings of the three realms who are difficult to tame and the afflictions of the three poisons; among the devas of the three realms, he transforms immeasurable retinues into great lords of devas, surpassing those devas by hundreds, thousands, and ten thousand times; what other sentient being could surpass him?):
