第九章 CHAPTER NINE
THE BASIS for purification lies in the precious enclosure of one’s heart. There, that which is called the “kati-crystal pipe” resembles a thread of white silk and extends [from the heart] into the pupils of the eyes, where it is open-ended. In the hollow center of this channel are the essences of the five major elements, visualized as five-colored light. Within this light, in an expanse of five-colored light particles, are the essences of the minor elements. These [lights] are the self-awareness nature of kāyas and wisdom abiding as the basis for the arising of the clear light of the precious buddha nature. Relying upon this path allows the qualities of the spontaneously present sambhogakāya to manifest, leading to the state of the dharmakāya Samantabhadra.
所净之基,位于自心珍宝围界中。其内,所谓“迦底水晶管”如白绢丝线,从心间延伸至眼中瞳仁,末端开放。这条脉的空心中央,有五大之精华,观为五色光;在此光内、五色光微粒之界中,有小元素的精华。这些〔光〕是身智的自觉本性,安住为珍贵如来藏明光生起之基。依此道,能使任运自成报身功德显现,引至法身普贤之位。
Initially, if one applies the key point of the gateways and looks with squinted eyes about a cubit’s length from the objects—either the sun, moon, a light, or a crystal—the luminosity of perfectly pure space will arise like rainbow drawings of beautifully patterned, silken brocade. Within that expanse, the luminosity of the empty light bindus will arise as spherical halos of five-colored lights. These are the two outer luminosities. The inner luminosity is the far-reaching water luminosity, the gateway through which clear light directly appears. The luminosity of self-originating prajñā is the basis for the arising of clear light, so it is the nature of awareness as the spontaneous presence of the three kāyas. As one practices by focusing awareness on the expanse of space and light bindus, the radiance of awareness will appear as what is called “the vajra-chain awareness manifestation.” Resembling an extended thread of gold, it is dazzling, limpid, subtle, and undulating in constant motion. All of this initially appears to be mobile and tremulous—sometimes limpid, other times not.
起初,若运用门户要点,微眯双眼,凝视距离日、月、灯光或水晶等所缘约一肘之处,清净法界之光明将如彩虹图画、美丽图案的锦缎般出现。在此界中,空性光明点之光明,显为五色球状光晕。这是两种外在光明。内在光明,是远通水光,为明光直接显现之门。自生般若光明,是明光生起之基,故为三身任运自成的觉性本性。将觉性专注于虚空与光明点之界而修时,觉性光辉将显为所谓“金刚链觉性显现”,如拉长的金丝,耀眼、澄澈、纤细,不断波动。起初这一切似乎移动、颤动,有时清澈,有时不然。
Without hope or disappointment, focus awareness upon the eyes. Concentrate the eyes upon the appearances and remain free from movement or disturbance. Practice in this way with dedicated diligence and continuity so that the crucial point is identified. As one meditates upon the appearances of luminosity and when they are no longer mobile, one has reached the first stage of familiarity.
无期待、无失望,将觉性专注于眼,眼专注于显现,不移动、不扰动。以专一精勤、相续不断的方式修持,直至认出要点。当观修光明显现,而其不再移动时,即到达最初熟习阶段。
This completes the ninth chapter that reveals the crucial points to identify on the path.
揭示道上所应认明要点的第九章结束。
Sealed in secrecy!
秘密封印!
