Exerpt: "This book relates to "The Profound Doctrine of Self-Liberation by Meditating upon the Peaceful and Wrathful Deities." It expounds the Yoga of Knowing the Mind, the Seeing of Reality, the Self-Liberation. By this method, one's mind is understood." These teachings called "The Knowing of the Mind in Its Self-Identifying, Self-Realizing, Self-Liberating Reality" were formulated by Padma-Sambhava, the spiritually endowed Teacher from Urgyan. May they not wane until the whole Sangsara is emptied. "The Great Symbol" If the significance
of these teachings were known by all beings, surpassingly excellent would
it be. Therefore, these teachings are called, "The Means of Attaining the
Other Shore of Wisdom." To them who have passed away into Nirvana, this
Mind is both beginningless and endless; therefore it is called "The Great
Symbol." |
