to the noble ones and gather the blessings back into you.%
The obscurations are purified, the accumulations are perfected, and you have obtained the empowerments and siddhis.%
As they emanate again, the karmas and disturbing emotions of the beings of the three realms are purified.%
Emanating and absorbing, like the emissaries of the king,%
Is the intent of mastering the Accomplishment of siddhis.%
At this time, the outer world is the vajra realm of Akanishtha.%
Appearances are deities, and all the animate and inanimate sounds are mantras.%
Thoughts are the display of nondual wisdom.%
During this, reciting in the great state of appearance and existence as manifest ground,%
This practice, like a beehive broken open,%
Is the intent of the Great Accomplishment of siddhis.%
You should apply these four intents of vajra recitation%
Chiefly to the practices of the single form, the elaborate form,%
The group, and the gathering.%
The next practice should be entered when the vivid presence of the former is perfected.%
However, through the intent of these instructions of mine, Self-Born Lotus,%
The way of practicing the recitation intents of Approach and Accomplishment,%
Combined into one in a single sitting session,%
Has been taught in order to swiftly produce blessings and signs.%
Through the internal way of profound HUNG recitation,%
Clinging to the appearances of the development stage stops and the power of awareness increases.%
Through the secret and most profound method of the prana recitation of great bliss,%
Samadhi is stabilized and pliancy is attained.%
As to the ultimate practice of dissolution into luminosity,%
By HUNG HUNG HUNG, the world and its inhabitants, along with your body,%
Gradually dissolve into the seed syllable, the letter HRIH.%
This again dissolves into the innate state of nonconceptual luminosity.%
Where the past has ceased and the future has not yet arisen,%
In the unimpeded state of present wakefulness,%
Rest in the manner of mind looking into mind.%
No matter what thoughts may arise at this time,%
They are all the display of the single mind essence.%
As the nature of space is unchanging,%
You will realize the all-pervasive mind essence to be changeless.%
This is the Great Perfection, the ultimate of all vehicles,%
The unexcelled meaning of the self-existing Mind Section.%
Whoever practices this ultimate yoga%
Will have limitless secret signs and virtues.%
The great power of experience and realization will gradually be perfected,%
And they will attain the wisdom of the Ever-Excellent Padma.%
By then uttering PHAT PHAT PHAT,%
Perceive yourself and the world with its inhabitants as the mandala circle.%
Within the state of the unity of the development and completion,%
Further increase the two accumulations of merit and wisdom.%
This essence of the ocean of tantras and oral instructions%
Is complete and concise and has immense blessings.%
It is easy to practice and is the path to enlightenment in one lifetime.%
It contains the key points in the intent of the Magical Net of the Vidyadharas%
And of the Direct Vision of the Ever-Excellent Mind Essence,%
Which I have gathered as the vital blood in my heart.%
I, the great Self-Born Padma, have taught it%
For the benefit of the present king, his sons, and my disciples%
And for the benefit of qualified beings in the future.%
Future generations, do not let this nectar dissipate, but collect this essence%
And accomplish the supreme and common siddhis!%
My children, practice continuously!%
Practitioners of knowledge mantras, never be apart from development and recitation!%
Yogis, bring your realization to encompass dharmadhatu!%
Samaya, seal, seal, seal.
Having expounded this most affectionate instruction, pouring out from the treasury of his realization, he entered the all-magnetizing samadhi.%
This was the fourth chapter from the Wish-Fulfilling Essence Manual of Oral Instructions, on the Quintessence of Wisdom Openness, the root samadhi, which is the source of all mandalas.%

Some people wishing to engage in extensive practice of the approach, accomplishment, and activities of Tukdrub may not have initially found time to complete the preliminaries in the usual allotment of time, such as one year. In that case, chant 10,000 of refuge, as much as you can of arousing bodhichitta, 10,000 of the Hundred Syllables, and 10,000 of either the long or short mandala offering. It is excellent if you can do 10,000 prostrations combined with the same number of the short supplication of the outer practice of guru yoga. If you can, also recite about 1,000 of Barchey Lamsel. Chant four times 100,000 of the Vajra Guru mantra for the inner practice. At the end of the session, do the secret practice of sustaining the realization.
After having fully completed all the preliminaries in this way, arrange the amrita, rakta, torma, and the seven enjoyments for the recitation practice of the main part. In the dawn session—from among the four sessions—do the full preliminaries and recitation of the main part, according to the liturgy of the Medium Practice Manual, the Trinley Dringpo. Do the Extensive Practice Manual, the Trinley Gyepa, in the late morning session; the Medium Practice Manual in the afternoon session; and the Extensive Practice Manual at the end of that session, following it through the feast down to the verses of auspiciousness. It is permissible to omit the invocation, covenant, Tenma offerings, and the horse dance every day, but definitely perform them on the tenth day and so forth. Before the feast, or otherwise before the residual offering, also do the petition offering to the Five Tseringma Sisters, the teaching guardians, up to the praises, as well as the torma offering to Kharak Khyung Tsünma, the treasure guardian. If you don’t do the mending prayers, mending of disharmony rituals, or the Tenma petition on a daily basis, perform them on special days, such as the tenth. In particular, make extensive mending prayers on the eighth.
In the evening session, perform the Medium Practice Manual. Whether you are following the Medium Practice Manual or the Concise Daily Practice Manual, open up the recitation mansion saying, BHRUNG VISHVA VISHUDDHE HRIH HUNG PHAT JAH at the end of the praises.
At the point of recitation-invocation in the Extensive Practice Manual, invoke with the words, “Boundless Light
