The exalted gurus of this simple man Take my pure body as their buddhafields. Their lion thrones are my pure pranas five; Five lotus seats my nadis, And their sun-moon seats are my five Elements pure. Empty mind-as-such is the form of gurus, And the empty forms of gurus Ever adorn my head. Vajradhara endowed with a wisdom body, And Tilopa with six clairvoyances; Naropa who casts the net of magic display, Together with Lord Marpa, Of incomparable kindness, All crown my head. Empty mind-as-such is the form of gurus, And the empty forms of gurus Ever adorn my head. If you know how to look with the eye of devotion, Vajradhara and you are not two. If you know how to supplicate with faith and respect, From cloudbanks of compassion A sweet rain of adhishtana Ever will fall. If you know how to make Offering with your practice, The entire treasury of Siddhi will be revealed. |
