An Aspiration to Realize Madhyamaka, Mahmudr, and Mah Ati

by Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

Incomparable Gurus in whom the three secrets of myriad siddhas are primordially
perfected: Samantabhadra, Vajradhara, and you, Mighty Sage, together with your
close disciples and oceanic deities of the Three Jewels, Three Roots, and
dharmaplas, pray listen!

Having purified myself with the common and extraordinary preliminary practices:
cultivating faith, renunciation, compassion, and wisdom; with reliance upon the
refuge of the three jewels, and the altruistic wish to benefit others, may I enter the
path pleasing to the victors!

The ultimate, essential nature of everything is emptiness, and the obscuring nature,
devoid of self-characteristics, can arise interdependently as anything whatsoever.
Their union lies beyond all extremes and is the dhtu beyond aspiration may I
actualize the Middle Way view of the supreme vehicle!

Through the threefold natural occurrence the co-emergence of mind itself is realized;
experiencing the self-liberation of the four faults is the fourfold yoga. Having found
the deep confidence that the four kyas are perfected within me, may I realize the
meditation of Mahmudr!

To realize the magical display of illusion, of appearance and mind as empty

awareness, is to strike the vital point of the swift path of creation, recitation,
method, and liberation; to see sasra and nirva arise as the dharmakya is to
take both happiness and suffering as the path. May I dispel obstacles and enhance
the practice through the conduct of single-taste!

Having liberated preoccupation with thought and hankering after self-characteristics

into the primordially pure dhtu, the four visions of spontaneous presence exhaust
contamination whence it lies. May I win the citadel of the dharmadhtu, the youthful
kya within a vase, and achieve the four visions of the resultant Great Perfection!

With swift compassion for all beings throughout space, and to obtain the potential,
ability, methods, and knowledge to tame those difficult ones bringing about the
amazing twofold spontaneous benefit may I emulate the awe-inspiring siddhas of
the past!

Whilst explaining the Heart-Essence of the Lordly and Most Majestic of Siddhas
(Druptop Chenpi Tuktik), I gave rise to a strong faith and conviction in the key vajra
points of the profound secret. I thought of the great fortune that would ensue if I and all

1
others could at least aspire to practise such a path. As such, I, Magala, a beggar from
Dokham, wrote this in the hidden land of fruits, Sikkim. May it prove meaningful!
Virtue!
