ucchuṣma-jambhala-sādhana-nāma

Practice of Uchushma-Jambhala

    Praise be to Uchushma-jambhala!
    Saying “oṁ a” will realize the invocation.
    From the syllable a that has become perfect in one's own heart, [appears] the disk of the moon. In the middle of it, from the perfect syllable hūṁ [appears] a vajr with nine peaks. In the middle of it, from the syllable ja, which is equal to Indra's comprehension, by means of the invocation mantra that was proclaimed earlier, the protector Jambhala enters into his own heart. Uchchushma, in the form of a child, with small openings of the ears. His body is black in color, with his hair surging upwards. He frowns, being in the form of a small man. Possesses the tiara of Ratnasambhava. With his left hand he holds a mongoose spewing jewel. With the right hand holds a blood-filled mouthpiece. Head turned southward, possesses a yellow color. Adorned with a variety of jewelry. With two feet, suppresses the back of the treasury of jewels. Imagine that from the essence that spews forth garlands of jewels, a cluster of garlands of rays of light is emitted.
    From the syllable oṁ on Uchushma's right hand, a bracelet appears. From the syllable baṁ appear like a radiance the good vessel and the net. In the center of the hand [appears] the syllable jaṁ. On the index finger, the syllable bha. On the middle finger, the syllable la. On the ring finger, the syllable ja. On the little finger, the syllable len. On the thumb, the syllable dra. On the wrist, the syllable ya. Next is svāhā. This is the sequence of establishing the mantra. When you verbally bless with the mantra, bring a handful of water.
    oṁ jaluṁ svāhā
    This is the mantra of bestowing a handful of water.
    oṁ indrani mukhaṁ bhra mari svāhā
    Bring it separately from the hand to the countenance, from the countenance to the hand. Thus meditate on Jambhala for the sake of [realizing] the purpose of cutting off by virtue of mercy all the suffering of poverty in all living beings.
    Thus concludes the practice of Uchushma-jambhala compiled by King Aryamati. Translated by the monk Darma Drag. Translated by Lama Karma Paljor (O.E. Filippov).
