Oral instructions on the drop-bindu of substance
I prostrate before the glorious Hevajra!
The seed bubbles up in the place of the great chakra like the full moon. The heart of all Enlightened Ones abides as the proper nature of all beings and is clarified first as possessing the absolute [level].
The objects of thoughts are agitated by water and wind. In this way various kinds of suffering arise. When you suppress them, entry [into the central channel] is established. As for the part-aspect, meditate on the tip of the nose.
In the center of the lotus, the space of unity of wisdom and method is revealed. [There is] a pure crystal-like seed there. The space that unfolds into a hundred petals is united as the mandala of the aspect of methods. Through the possession of the syllables of the rope [mantra], one entangles the karmavajra. By rays of light from the eyes of the yogi, look at the white mustard seeds. If one is steady in anything, the five characteristics will arise. The intrinsic nature of the cluster that gives rise to the Victorious Ones is pure. Thus also the three spheres [of being appear] as the invisibility of the original wisdom of the cause. The aspect of nonduality is the original wisdom of the great yoga. By emanating [prana] from the path of the nostrils, prana vibrates on the basis of its own location. By virtue of the left [channel] and effulgence, on the basis of the path of the orifices it is desirable to advance to the great chakra. Then one will hold the true. On the basis of the vajra path of channels, thou shalt increase the four sesame seeds. The fruit from leading to the completion of yoga, is called the Body of Great Bliss.
All qualities such as the goals of others, etc., will be attained without effort. The Great Mystery and the six primordial wisdoms are clarified as the “Cause”.
The feet of the Enlightened One are set upon me and appear as conditions and yoga.
The four fruits are the great sacrament and are called 'Great Bliss'. And even in the tantra of yoga on the basis of all things, the [sacrament] concealed by the Victorious Ones is torn down, one who is a vessel of sanctification in perfect purity is sustained by the great essence. Having realized actions in bliss in relation to mind and body, rely on the yoga of day and night. Thus is explained in the stanzas of the Enlightened One.
Let this original wisdom of the enlightened mood of nonduality of methods and wisdom appear in meditation in one who wishes to [attain the states of] the Enlightened One!
These are the oral teachings on the drop of substance, nonduality of methods and wisdom. Compiled from the precepts at the feet of the great lord yogi Karma.
