NIGUMA | Vajra verses of self-liberating Great Seal * SHANGPA LINEAGE, VAJRA SONGS* MAHAMUDRA, NIGUMA, TIMELESS RAPTURE, VAJRA SONGS, VAJRA SONGS OF THE SHANGPA MASTERSThe wisdom dakini known as Nigupta, illustrious Narotapa’s sister, was a self-manifest yogini, a powerful lord bodhisattva on awakening’s tenth stage, who received direct instruction from Conqueror Vajra Bearer. She sang these vajra verses of self-liberating Great Seal:Nature of mind,Wish-fulfilling jewel, to you I bow.Wishing to attain perfect enlightenment,Visualize your body clearly as the deityTo purify ordinary thoughts.Develop a noble intention to help othersAnd pure devotion to your spiritual master.Don’t dwell on your spiritual master or the deity.Don’t bring anything to mind,Be it real or imagined.Rest uncontrived in the innate state.Your own mind, uncontrived, is the body of ultimate enlightenment.To remain undistracted within this is meditation’s essential point.Realize the great, boundless, expansive state.Myriad thoughts of anger and desirePropel you within the seas of existence.Take the sharp sword of the unborn stateAnd cut through them to their lack of intrinsic nature.When you cut a tree’s root,Its branches won’t grow.On a bright ocean,Bubbles emerge then dissolve back into the water.Likewise, thoughts are nothing but the nature of reality:Don’t regard them as faults. Relax.When you have no clinging to what appears, what arises,It frees itself within its own ground.Appearances, sound, and phenomena are your own mind.There are no phenomena apart from mind.Mind is free from birth, cessation,And formulation.Those who know mind’s natureEnjoy the five senses’ pleasuresBut do not stray from the nature of reality.On an island of gold,You search in vain for earth and stones.In the equanimity of the great absolute expanse,There is no acceptance or rejection,No states of meditation or postmeditation.When you actualize that state,It is spontaneously present,Fulfilling beings’ hopesLike a wish-fulfilling jewel.Persons of the highest, middle, and common levels of capabilityShould learn this in stages suitable to their understanding. 智慧空行母名为尼古玛，为无比那洛巴之妹，乃自生之瑜伽女。现证十地之果，大金刚总持亦面授引导诸要。此为其所唱之大印自解脱金刚偈： 顶礼自心本性如意宝！发愿证得圆满觉己身明观本尊身凡庸念想皆净除生发利他菩提愿滋长对师虔信心 上师本尊莫执取于心不起真幻境无造无作亦无勤如如本具且安歇 究竟圆满妙觉身汝心离戏正如是安住保任无造作是为修持之命根广大庄严亦无边本来风光且得见 贪嗔诸念无尽头推汝深陷有海沟无生之旨为利剑斩灭原来性无有犹如断除巨树根枝干叶华尽为漚 沐日沧海泛华光出水浮泡不离洋妄想本来寂灭性无过无咎且全放 何者显现皆莫着全于基中自解脱 色尘音声及万象与心不二离心无心之体性本无有生住异灭与断常 何者识此本来面且享五种妙欲乐实相刹那亦莫离不从金山觅土垫 虚空法界大寂静迎拒废立全无有修与无修亦绝踪 不思议境若现证当下即是任运显犹如满愿如意宝圆成有情无边愿 利、中与钝根之人当以己之能力而次第修学之。 注：本文由赵明玮先生译汉，系第二世卡卢仁波切授课的教材。 获取专业喜讯
