Achieving Chakrasamvara's heart's suchness

     I prostrate before the glorious Chakrasamvara!
     Through the unity of method and wisdom, you possess your own nature of the inseparability of the relative and absolute levels! I prostrate before the natural primordial wisdom that is filled with the taste of the union of bliss and emptiness!
     Anyone by habituation [of practice] will cut off all paths that bind in the prison of existence. The sanctity of mind appears as the supreme jewel, self-consciousness. On the basis of all such things the method of comprehension is explained.
     Six, eight, twenty-two, five - according to this you will possess youthfulness and a beautiful form with wide-open eyes. Your mind is adorned with faith, listening, and charity.
     Come to Refuge, engender attunement, [possess] true devotion. In a secluded place that is free from error, [abide,] casting off all hesitation. Should be possessed of the nine practices, beautiful in adornments and with elements acceptable to the mind, harmonious food and drink, and fragrances. Discard all that is perceived as ordinary. [Manifest] the bodies of the deity, which is manifested as the bow of Indra. There the syllable daya is established on the tip of the nose and in the middle of the feet.
     By accumulation of mantras the blessing of the umbilical [center], the heart, the mouth and the place between the eyebrows is performed. Conjugation is established with fingers and a kiss. The lips are joined and the breasts are pressed together. Through massaging movements, tapping and fingers [vibrations are] produced. Due to this, binding is realized, resulting in the equilibrium of the two forces. At this time, when everything is like the supreme incomparable jewel, [there arises] great bliss, self-consciousness, and holiness of mind. When you comprehend everything, at that time you will control the life force. Through the yoga of stopping, you will experience great bliss.
     The two extremes, such as the material and the immaterial, are discarded. One possesses one's own nature of inseparability of emptiness and mercy. The cause of the origin of the primordial wisdom of the Triumphant Three Times appears solely as primordial wisdom, great bliss, and self-consciousness. Thus in everything [is shown] the symbol of the natural self-nature. Through the formation of the symbol that symbolizes everything, [the symbol appears]. The symbol of the essence of original wisdom and ordinary consciousness is bound up in understanding due to the original wisdom filling everything. Here [the] symbols of all manifested beings are [shown].
     Although at this time also [there are] manifestations in the form of sense objects, all these particles that appear as forms, sounds, smells, tastes, and tangibles [appear] as great bliss. There are no particles in everything that are different from this. [There is] only the one and only “Great Bliss, the original wisdom.” Through the experience of the one [aspect], the multiple appears in the dance. Through all things one realizes meditation on the supreme primordial wisdom. Through it all the paths of existence are crossed without exception. Through the source that restores oneself and others, one becomes stable in the space of incomparable nirvana.
     Such is the attainment of suchness of the heart of the glorious Chakrasamvara.
