Tibetan Divination

Mo Divination: Ancient Wisdom, Instant Guidance

Virtuous man, what is the sign of life? It is the mind of sentient beings that illuminates purity, in which they are aware of what they have realized. Karmic [consciousness] and wisdom cannot perceive themselves. This is comparable to the root of life.

Virtuous man, when the mind is able to illuminate and perceive enlightenment, it is but a defilement, because both perceiver and perceived are not apart from defilement.

After ice melts in hot water, there is no ice to be aware of its melting. The perception of the existence of the self enlightening itself is also like this.

"Virtuous man, if sentient beings in the Dharma Ending Age do not understand these four characteristics [of the self], even after cultivating the Path diligently for many kalpas, [it is still] called practicing with attachments and they will not be able to accomplish the fruition of sainthood.

Therefore, this is called [cultivating] the True Dharma in the Dharma Ending Age. Why? Because they mistake the various aspects of the self for nirvana, and regard their experiences and awakenings as accomplishments.

This is comparable to a man who mistakes a thief for his own son. His wealth and treasure will never increase. Why? Because if one grasps onto the self, one will also grasp onto nirvana. For him, the root of grasping onto the self is [merely] suppressed and [seemingly] there is the appearance of nirvana.

If there is one who hates the self, one will also have hatred for birth and death. Not knowing that grasping is the real [source of] birth and death, hatred for birth and death is [also] not liberation.

By cultivation accomplish the power of energetic progress.
By virtue of the power of energetic progress, one attains Buddhahood.
If one enters the fine chamber of great compassion
And one's ear hears briefly this Dharani,
Even though energetic progress is not yet perfected,
One will soon become the teacher to gods and humans.

By cultivation accomplish the power of dhyana.
By virtue of the power of dhyana, one attains Buddhahood.
If one enters the fine chamber of great compassion
And one's ear hears briefly this Dharani,
Even though dhyana is not yet perfected,
One will soon become the teacher to gods and humans.

"Friend Sariputta, there are some brahmans & contemplatives, teachers of kamma, who declare that pleasure & pain are self-made. There are other brahmans & contemplatives, teachers of kamma, who declare that pleasure & pain are other-made. Then there are other brahmans & contemplatives, teachers of kamma, who declare that pleasure & pain are self-made & other-made. And then there are still other brahmans & contemplatives, teachers of kamma, who declare that pleasure & pain are neither self-made nor other-made, but arise spontaneously.

In this case, friend Sariputta, what is the Blessed One's doctrine? What does he teach? Answering in what way will I speak in line with what the Blessed One has said, not misrepresent the Blessed One with what is unfactual, and answer in line with the Dhamma so that no one whose thinking is in line with the Dhamma will have grounds for criticism?"

"The Blessed One, my friend, has said that pleasure & pain are dependently co-arisen. Dependent on what? Dependent on contact. One speaking in this way would be speaking in line with what the Blessed One has said, would not be misrepresenting the Blessed One with what is unfactual, and would be answering in line with the Dhamma so that no one whose thinking is in line with the Dhamma would have grounds for criticism."

The Buddha further added, "If one can chant this Dharani 21 times daily, one is worthy of accepting all the immense worldly offerings and will be reborn in the Land of Ultimate Bliss after one's death.

If one chants this Dharani constantly, one will attain Maha Parinirvana and be able to lengthen one's lifespan besides enjoying the most extraordinary bliss. After one's life is over, one will reborn in any of the wonderful Buddha lands, in constant company of the Buddhas. All Tathagatas will always give discourses on the profound and wonderful truth of Dharma and all World

Honored Ones will bestow predictions of enlightenment upon one. The light illuminating from one's body will pervade all Buddha lands."

The Buddha further explained, "To recite this Dharani, one should first, in front of the Buddha's image, use some clean soil to construct a square Mandala, the size according to one's wish. On top of the Mandala one should spread different kinds of grass, flowers and burn different kinds of quality incense.

Then kneeling down with the right knee on the floor, mindfully reciting the Buddha's name and with the hands in the Mudrani symbol, (i.e. each hand bending the forefinger before and pressing it down with the thumb and placing both palms together before the chest) in reverence, one should recite this Dharani 108 times. The showers of flowers would rain down from the clouds and would thus be universally made as offerings to Buddhas as numerous as the grains of sand of eighty-eight million Ganges Rivers.

These Buddhas will simultaneously praise,
"Excellent! Rare indeed! A Buddha's true disciple!"

One will instantly attain Unobstructed Wisdom Samadhi and the Great Bodhi Mind Adorned Samadhi. Thus is the way to uphold this Dharani."

The Buddha again exhorted Lord Sakra, saying, "Lord of Heaven, the Tathagata uses this expedient means to deliver beings who would otherwise have fallen into hells; to purify all evil paths and to lengthen the life-spans of those who uphold this Dharani. Lord of Heaven, please go back and transmit this Dharani to Devaputra Susthita. After seven days, come to see me with Devaputra Susthita."

Thus, at the abode of the World Honored One, the Lord of Heaven respectfully received this Dharani practice and returned to his heavenly palace to convey it to Devaputra Susthita."

Having received this Dharani, Devaputra Susthita kept to the practice as instructed for six days and six nights, after which all his wishes were completely fulfilled. The karma which should have led him to suffer in all the evil paths were all eradicated. He would remain on the Bodhi Path and increase his lifespan for an immeasurable period of time.

Thus, he was extremely delighted, exclaiming aloud in praise, "Extraordinary Tathagata! What a rare and wonderful Dharma! Its efficacy explicitly verified! Rare indeed! Truly I have thus obtained deliverance!"

At that time, there were present such women as Kuddara and such bhiksunis [nuns] as Subhadra, Upananda, Sagaramati, and 6 million bhiksunis. They were all great arhats. All "’asravas"’ [inner defilements] having been done away with, they were unmolested in mind and could act as they willed. They were parted from all illusion and all their sense-organs were subdued. Like great nagas, they were perfect in virtue. They were accomplished in the Wisdom of the All-Void. Also, early in the morning, after the sun had just risen, their hair stood on end all over their body and their blood so ran through their vessels that they looked like palasa flowers. Tears filled their eyes, which bespoke great sorrow. They desired to benefit beings, to give peace and bliss, and establish the Transcendent Truth of the All-Void of Mahayana. They meant to manifest what the Tathagata had by expediency latently taught, so that all his sermons would not disappear. In order to subjugate the minds of all beings, they sped to where the Buddha was, touched his feet, walked around him a 100 thousand times, folded their hands, paid homage, stepped back and sat on one side.

In the words of Terton Migyur Dorje:

“Those who see this script will not experience the three lower realms and will be liberated from the fear of falling into the lower realms; they will be purified of the five poisons, freed from the results of karma, and released from the fear of remaining in samsara.”

This script carries the essence of ultimate compassion. It bypasses the limitations of intellect and concepts, working directly on the mindstream of those who encounter it. Simply gazing upon the script plants the seeds of liberation, purifying karmic obscurations and guiding beings toward awakening.

"At that time the great guiding teacher Maitreya Buddha will want them each to hear about their sufferings in the past. He will also think this thought: 'The five impure desires are the roots of sufferings, but the knowledge that sufferings and pleasures are both impermanent can remove their anxieties and sorrows. He will then pronounce to them the five aggregates: form, sensory reception, perception, mental processing, and consciousness, as well as sufferings, emptiness, impermanence, and the nonexistence of self.

As He speaks these words, 96 koti people will no longer embrace the dharmas [perceived by the senses]. Having ended their discharge of afflictions and liberated their minds, they will attain Arhatship, complete with the Three Clarities, Six Transcendental Powers, and Eight Liberations.

Thirty-six thousand god-sons and twenty thousand god-daughters will activate their anuttara-samyak- sambodhi mind. Among the eight classes of Dharma protectors such as gods and dragons, some will become Srotapannas, entering the holy stream, and others will plant the conditions for going the Pretyekabuddha Way. Those who will activate the mind toward the unsurpassed Way will be so numerous that it will be beyond reckoning.

The Buddha continued..."Furthermore, if there are those who themselves copy or have others copy this Dharani Sutra, such individuals will never fall to hell, the ghost world, the animal kingdom, or the dominion of Yama, lord of the underworld. They will never again undergo the evil retributions of those evil life-paths. Individuals such as these, because of their merit gained from copying this Sutra of the Infinite-Life Resolute Radiance King Tathagata Dharani, will have past-life knowledge, continuing rebirth after rebirth, life after life, wherever they will be reborn.

If there are those who themselves copy or have others copy this Sutra of the Infinite-Life Resolute Radiance King Tathagata Dharani, the merit earned by such individuals will be no different from that of copying 84,000 Dharmas in store.

If there are those who themselves copy or have others copy this Sutra of the Infinite-Life Resolute Radiance King Tathagata Dharani, the merit earned by such individuals will be no different from that of constructing 84,000 treasure pagodas.

If there are those who themselves copy or have others copy this Sutra of the Infinite-Life Resolute Radiance King Tathagata Dharani, such individuals will not fall under the rule of the mara-king and his retinue or walk the life-paths of yakshas and rakshasas. They will not die accidental deaths and will never receive those evil retributions mentioned above.

The Buddha told Bhadrapala, "I have the foresight and foreknowledge of those who, having heard this samadhi sutra, will not laugh in contempt, malign, doubt, or suddenly believe and suddenly disbelieve, but will delight in copying, learning, reciting, and upholding it. They not only have accumulated merit under one or two Buddhas, but have heard this samadhi sutra from one hundred Buddhas.

When they hear this samadhi sutra in their future lives, if they copy, learn, recite, and uphold it even for only one day and one night, their merit will be beyond calculation. They will arrive at the spiritual level of avinivartaniya on their own as they wish." -- The Pratyutpanna Samadhi sutra

DEFINITION: Avinivartaniya - The spiritual level from which a Bodhisattva will never regress. Bodhisattvas on the First Ground or above will never lose their spiritual realization; Bodhisattvas on the Eighth Ground or above will never lose their mindfulness

The bathhouse is the body. When you light the fire of wisdom, you warm the pure water of the precepts and bathe the true Buddha nature within you. By upholding these seven practices you add to your virtue.

The monks of that age were perceptive. They understood the Buddha's meaning. They followed his teaching, perfected their virtue, and tasted the fruit of Buddhahood. But people nowadays can't fathom these things. They use ordinary water to wash a physical body and think they're following the sutra. But they're mistaken. Our true buddha-nature has no shape. And the dust of affliction has no form. How can people use ordinary water to wash an intangible body? It won't work.

When will they wake up? To clean such a body you have to behold it. Once impurities and filth arise from desire, they multiply until they cover you inside and out. But if you try to wash this body of yours, you have to scrub until it's nearly gone before it's clean. From this you should realize that washing something external isn't What the Buddha meant. -- Bodhidharma' s Breakthrough Sermon

Then, Bodhisattva Lion's Roar said: "O World-Honoured One! If it is the case that all beings possess the Buddha-Nature like any vajra guardsman [i.e. a person who holds in his hand a vajra - diamond - and who thus protects the Buddhist teaching], why is it that all beings cannot see it?"

The Buddha said: "O good man! For example, "matter" ["rupa"] has such representational qualities as blue, yellow, red, and white, and long or short, but a blind person cannot see it as such. Though it is not seen, we cannot say that there is no such quality as blue, yellow, red, white, long or short. Why not?

Even though the blind person cannot see [it], one who has eyes can see [it]. It is the same with the Buddha Nature. Even though all beings cannot see [it], the Bodhisattva at the level of the ten stages can see [it] somewhat; the Tathagata sees [it] completely. The Buddha-Nature seen by the Bodhisattva of the ten stages is like color seen at night. What the Tathagata sees is like color seen in the daytime." -- The Mahaparinirvana

Kilaya, an emanation of Vajrasattva, wields the phurba to pierce through the veils of hatred and anger, transforming these poisons into clarity and wisdom.

In these degenerate times, his fierce compassion reminds us: obstacles are not enemies—they are the raw material for awakening. Invoke Kilaya and feel his power to purify and liberate.

THE JOURNEY OF A DELOG
Have you ever heard of the delog? In Tibetan Buddhism, a delog is someone who crosses the threshold of death, traveling to realms beyond ordinary perception and returning to share their sacred visions.

Tse Lhamo (Ayurdevi)—known also as Gauri Gurtima—is a deity few on this earth have ever seen, yet she was described by Delog Dawa Drolma during her journey to Yulokod, the Pure Land of Tara. A realm of emerald radiance, infinite compassion, and healing light, Yulokod is a refuge for beings seeking awakening.

Tse Lhamo emerged from this realm as a luminous goddess of healing and longevity, radiant with wisdom. Until now, her image has been missing from the art of our world—no statue, no thangka, no form to venerate. But today, we share this vision to bring her blessings closer to us all.

All buddhas can contain all sentient beings in each pore of their bodies, each sentien being's body equal to untold buddha-lands, yet there is no crowding; each sentient being can pass countless worlds with every step and go on for countless eons, seeing all the buddhas emerging in the world and edifying beings, turning the wheel of the pure Teaching, showing untold phenomena of past, future, and present, the embodiments of sentient beings in various realms of existence throughout space, their comings and goings and deportment, their needs all fully supplied, yet without any obstruction therein - this is buddhas' ninth mastery.

"By cultivation accomplish the power of energetic progress.
By virtue of the power of energetic progress, one attains Buddhahood.
If one enters the fine chamber of great compassion
And one's ear hears briefly this Dharani,
Even though energetic progress is not yet perfected,
One will soon become the teacher to gods and humans.

By cultivation accomplish the power of dhyana.
By virtue of the power of dhyana, one attains Buddhahood.

One will soon become the teacher to gods and humans."

"At that time, in that land, there will be a Wheel-Turning King named Rañca, endowed with the thirty-two major marks. He will have four types of armed forces, but he will not rule the four continents by military power. The king will have 1,000 sons, who are valiant and majestic, and enemies will naturally submit to them. The king will have seven precious things:

First, the golden wheel, complete with the hub, the rim, and 1,000 spokes; second, the white elephant, white as a snow mountain, a magnificent spectacle as it stands on its seven limbs, like a mountain-king; third, the blue horse, with red mane and tail, hoofs made of the seven treasures, and flowers appearing underneath; fourth, the divine jewel, clearly visible, more than two elbows across, the radiance of which rains down treasures to fulfill the wishes of sentient beings; fifth, exquisite maidens, beautiful, wonderful, and limber as if boneless; sixth, the treasure minister, whose mouth spits out jewels, whose feet rain down jewels, and whose hands produce jewels; seventh, the military minister, who, by moving his body, can produce the four types of armed forces from the sky just like clouds."

WHY IS THIS MANTRA IMPORTANT NOW?

At the Great Dharma Encampment of Yachen, all of the prophecies of the regents of Guru Rinpoche were compiled. Then Kyapje Kangsar Tenpay Wangchuk Rinpoche examined and compared them all, and what he found was that a great war will happen in this world in the Iron Dog Year of 2030.

Also, in the prophecies of the manifested treasure revealer Jigme Nuden Dorje, it says, “The 18 armies of Duruka will carry 108 different kinds of weapons and armor. Their food, language, and clothing will all be different (than ours.) They are all extremists with no contentment.”

Kyabje Chadrel Sangye Dorje also has stated, “Because the signs are increasing day by day of the coming of a danger which has never previously occurred, but could come quickly, of the use of nuclear weapons which have the power to instantly destroy all of the teachings of the victorious ones, the life force of beings, and all the goodness of the environment and of living beings in this world—the kind of violent warfare which could kill all of humanity."

Therefore, it is crucial for practitioners to diligently engage in the practices of mantra recitation, prayers, and the study of this scripture, as they hold the potential to avert or mitigate the immense suffering that may arise from such catastrophic events. In this time of great uncertainty, the wisdom and compassion of the teachings can guide and protect us, helping to preserve the Dharma and the well-being of all sentient beings.
