| 9. Translation of colophon | In this way, offerings of torma cakes with drinking-offering beer and blood for the deities, then, calling out with pleasure, beating drums, and ringing bells. Like me, I, Phug po mgo dmar, having acquired the essence of sTag la me ’bar’s wisdom mind, not I need this actually, but to save to complement future eras of degeneration, as well as to improve the experience and get dream sins faster when practicing, thus benefit the development of the doctrine in the future. With the (external and internal) fulfillment offering rituals for deities, the external thread-cross ransom ritual (bskang bzlog bsad gsum) is like the heart, but the internal fulfillment offering ritual (nang bskang) is like the blood inside the heart, so that this doctrine of being like the blood in the heart is conducive to eliminating the decay of longevity in the evil age, therefor, please cherish this precious doctrine. The doctrine that it can only be awarded to one person, not to a second or more, and if it awarded to some other than the one person, then your will be punished by the deities. For the coming practitioners, if anyone has access to this treasure doctrine, the experience of practice will becoming cleaver, quickly and powerful, therefor, please cherish this! Having said this, the doctrine was then hidden in the heart center of the mountain rMa gnyan sbom ra, and at an after later, revelated by master Dra npa Nam mkha’ as a treasure from mountain rMa gnyan sboam ra, but for benefit beings and doctrine in the future, hidden as a treasure in the Zang zang lha brag rock cliffs, May it meet a person who have the karmir connection with the treasure! May the doctrine of magical mantras be development! May the doctrine of devil be destroyed by themselves! May the treasure meet people who are not only practicing the Bon doctrine with their mouths, but meet people who are truly bent on practicing the Bon doctrine! May it be virtuous! May it be auspicious! Good fortune!
Then encouraged in this way, offering this more powerful! May it be auspicious! Many it be good fortune!
Since the sentence and the mantra here are the same as the part of tho bzhi (praise to the deity of the four direction) in the sādhanā scripture, so omitted here. Then, hidden in the Zang zang lha brag rock cliffs without any frame of reference, and said: May the doctrine of the Five of Mother and Sons (yum sars lnga) be practiced! May the doctrine connecting with a person who have the karmir connection with the treasure! In this case, after hiding, may the heruka (blood-drinker) achieve! Top secret! rgya rgya rgya, rgya rgya rgya, rgya rgya rgya! Secret seal! |
| 10. Remarks | A comments for the first text: when practicing according to the tantric cycle of the sTag la me ’bar’s sāshanā scripture, and having a poor experience of meditation practice, or wrong experience, as well as slowness protector’s blessing, then two types of rituals can be done that helpful, one is the external thread-cross ransom ritual (phyi ru bskang bzlog bsad gsum gyi mdos), and another is the internal fulfillment offering ritual (nang du gtor ma sha khrag phud kyi bskang pa). |
