何耶揭唎婆像法

Furthermore, take a piece of clean white silk cloth (Baidie) that has not been recycled, and invite a skilled Painting Master, without haggling over the price. Bathe with warm fragrant water, put on clean new garments, and receive the Eight Precepts. Each day, in like manner, in a pure place make a Water Maṇḍala about four cubits wide (the method of the Water Maṇḍala has already been explained in another Section). After the Mantra Master protects his body and establishes the boundary, within that Maṇḍala burn every kind of incense, scatter every kind of flower as offering, and then make the supplication.

Within this Maṇḍala, paint the Bodhisattva with a body about one cubit tall. The Bodhisattva has four faces. The central face is the face of the Bodhisattva, exceedingly upright, with a compassionate countenance, of white-red complexion, with hair purely blue-green in color.

The face on the left is a wrathful face of black color, baring dog-fangs, with hair exceedingly fine like the color of a strong flame. The face on the right has a greatly laughing (loudly laughing) countenance, of white-red color, upright like the face of the Bodhisattva, with hair purely blue-green in color. Upon the heads of these three faces are all worn a heavenly crown (Devamukuṭa) and ear-rings.

Upon the crown is a Transformation Buddha seated in the cross-legged posture. Upon the crown of the central face is made a horse's head of deep blue-green color with its mouth closed. Below the neck the Bodhisattva wears a precious necklace of jeweled garlands.

Behind the neck and behind the back is a round halo with many layers of color. Left hand: bend the arm before the breast holding a pink lotus flower, and that lotus bud and the Bodhisattva's navel are both directed toward the upper part of the left arm. Upon that flower-dais is made a Transformation Buddha wearing a kāṣāya robe, seated in the cross-legged posture.

Behind the neck and behind the back is the radiance of a halo. The Bodhisattva turns the palm of the right hand upward, extends the five fingers, and bends it level with the elbow. That palm holds up the round white Cintāmaṇi jewel (Cintāmaṇi — the Wish-Fulfilling Jewel), and surrounding this jewel is the radiance of flames encircling it.

Directly below the jewel in the right hand pour down rains of all kinds of precious treasures. Upon the upper part of the left arm is draped a Vyāghracarma (tiger-skin) like draped tree-bark, bound and hung directly below the armpit. Then draw the tiger-skin out to reach the groin.

Use bracelets worn upon the arms; the long draped garment (Devavastra) and the trousers are all as painted elsewhere according to the method of the Bodhisattva. Set the Bodhisattva standing erect of body upon a pink lotus flower. In the empty sky hang a parasol and precious canopy to shelter the Bodhisattva's head, and at the same time paint complete all the kinds of music of the Heavenly realm.

On both sides, in the empty sky, paint the Devas of the Sumeru Assembly dancing and making offerings. When painting this Image, use fragrant liquid substances to paint, and one must not use glue boiled from animal hide. Furthermore use Susukhādhya (a small tree with fragrant resin), pounding and grinding it into very fine fragments to use as the essence of Curd (curd-juice) and blend it according to the method.

Use the Hayagrīva Heart-Mantra; after enchanting twenty-one times, have the sick person face upward toward the empty sky and drink it into the belly, whereupon all the various kinds of poisonous worms within the belly will all be vomited out.

_ There is also a method of painting and making the Image. Take the fine powder of various jars and blend it with new earthenware, then make a jar and dye it blue-green. Upon this new earthenware jar paint and make the Image of Hayagrīva Avalokiteśvara, one cubit tall.

The Image has four joyful faces. One face on the left is painted black in color, with eyeballs of green color, baring dog-fangs. One face on the right is painted red in color, called the Pledge-Mantra Face.

The central face is the face of the Bodhisattva, exceedingly upright, painted white in color. In the empty sky, set apart from the head of the Image, paint a blue-green face with open mouth spewing forth a precious jewel. Those four heads all wear a precious crown, and upon each crown there is a Transformation Buddha seated.

The Bodhisattva: the left hand holds a lotus flower, the elbow bent, raising it up directly before the upper arm. The right hand hangs down extending the five fingers — this is the hand of Bestowing Fearlessness. Upon the two wrists, make precious bracelets.

Upon the neck of the Image, wear a precious necklace of jeweled garlands. The adornment of the bodily parts is as explained elsewhere regarding the method of adorning the body of Avalokiteśvara. That Image stands upon a precious lotus flower.

After making this Image: from the tenth day of the period of the White Moon (the first fifteen days of the month), begin to eat barley, milk, and sesame. Thereafter, on the 13th, 14th, and 15th, for three days and three nights, do not eat. Take Sakabija incense and Gandhanakuli flowers, then enchant these two things; with each one recitation of the mantra make one cut, then bring it directly before the face, up to eight thousand times.

From within the mouth of that Image is emitted a vast radiance encircling the Mantra Master, then it returns and enters into the mouth of the Image. From within the mouth of that Image pours forth a Wish-Fulfilling Jewel. The Mantra Master then receives that jewel, and afterward will live long to fourteen thousand years, will obtain the Seven Treasures of a Wheel-Turning Sage King, and after death will be born into the land of Sukhāvatī and sit beneath the feet of Avalokiteśvara.

_ There is also a method: one should go begging for barley, milk, and pure thoroughly-cooked porridge, then recite seventy thousand times.

Ten thousand recitations, and Vināyaka is bound and tied.

Twenty thousand recitations, and the Mantra Method is accomplished.

Thirty thousand recitations, and one obtains the accomplishment of the Medicine Method of Añjana, Sādhana, Manaḥśilā. For three days and three nights one must not eat, but only perform the Method. Hold that medicine in the hand; at the very moment of enchanting the medicine, when within that medicine three kinds of signs appear, one then knows the medicine is accomplished. The three signs are: warmth, smoke, fire. The Mantra Master then obtains the accomplishment of Antardhāna (invisibility), leaps up into the empty sky and travels through it, obtains the accomplishment of a self-mastered Mantra-Holding Ṛṣi, and is able to enter the palace of the Asuras.

Forty thousand recitations, and one will travel freely four finger-widths apart from the surface of the earth.

Fifty thousand recitations, and one will be able, at will, to leap up into the empty sky and go.

Sixty thousand recitations, and all the tasks that one undertakes are accomplished. All who are summoned (called, invited, convoked) will come.

Seventy thousand recitations, and the hair upon the head of the Mantra Master will become spiral-coiled hair. According to what is cultivated, in response to the thought one will at once draw near to attend upon Avalokiteśvara, and will then know of all sentient beings throughout the three times how they die here and are born there.

_ There is also a method: if one wishes to strike the four Jaya (Jaya — Producing Victory). Before the Image of Hayagrīva, fast for three days and three nights, grind incense upon the table, bring all kinds of incense and flowers, food and drink, milk, porridge, fruits... all pure, every kind of offering. Pound and grind Sajalasa incense, use white honey to make eight thousand pellets, then enchant each single pellet once, and afterward cast it into the fire to be burned; in this way until the incense is exhausted, whereupon those four Jaya Assemblies are found. At first they see the horse's head and despise it, whereupon it transforms into the head of Hayagrīva. The Mantra Master gazes straight upward toward them, and those four assemblies all utterly perish.

_ There is also a method: First use barley and take the middle-grade barley, wash it clean, then earnestly pound and grind it and steam it into thoroughly-cooked milk-porridge. From the 1st day of the month that has a moon, eat the thoroughly-cooked milk-porridge until the 13th day, then cease and do not eat. Before the Image of Hayagrīva use fragrant powder to smear and spread the earth, scatter all kinds of flowers, burn the various famous incenses, and bring all food and drink as offering.

After that, take Kapiśa incense, pound and grind it into fine dust, blend it with water to make eight thousand pellets. Take the wood of the Khadira tree as kindling to start the fire; each time enchant one incense pellet (the incense-soul), then once cast it into the fire to be burned; in this way exhaust the eight thousand pellets. When the incense-souls are exhausted, the charcoal embers transform into Suvarṇa gold (Suvarṇa — pure gold) of golden color, weighing up to a hundred thousand taels.

_ There is also a method: If one wishes to break a mantra-holder of the Heretics, take a little of one's own blood and blend it with white mustard seeds to make eight thousand pellets. On the 14th day of the period of the Black Moon (the last fifteen days of the month), fast for one day, take Khadira wood and start a fire in the brazier; each single time enchant one white-mustard-seed pellet, then once cast it into the fire to be burned. In this way until the eight thousand pellets are exhausted, then all mantras will all be utterly destroyed.

_ There is also a method: Merely recite the Mantra. Cultivating in a wilderness place (a deserted open field) with a place that has a high mound of sand, food and drink will naturally pour forth.

_ There is also a method: At the time of a Solar Eclipse take one tael of clean Cow-Curd held in a new earthenware bowl. Then hold the bowl, gazing up at the sun and moon, and enchant the curd (butter) in the bowl until the curd grows warm or the signs of smoke and fire appear. At that very moment then drink the butter in. When the butter is exhausted, then whatever place one wishes to go to, merely give rise to the thought and one arrives there at once. If one constantly recites this mantra, then in all fearful places there will be no fear. All obstacles and calamities will be liberated.

_ There is also a method: If one is afflicted with the Camel boil (afflicted with this boil one will die), and is bitten by the various kinds of venomous snakes (a person who sees this snake will die), or is afflicted with the Lūbiṭaka boil. When afflicted with these kinds of boils, then enchant yellow earthen mud a full one thousand times and smear it upon the boil, and one will at once be cured of it. All fearful thoughts in the mind will at once be removed.

_ There is also a method: If a person suddenly meets with a calamity of river-water (water-calamity), as soon as the mind holds it in remembrance one will not be drowned and submerged.

The methods of this group, in like manner, cannot be explained at length; only according to one's wish are they accomplished. If one performs the Great Maṇḍala, then one must not engage in sexual lust.

_ The Hayagrīva Curing-Illness (Healing) Mudrā. With both hands interlock the fingers crosswise on the inside, then clench them into fists. Erect the two forefingers with their tips touching each other. Bend the two thumbs, then bend the two forefingers to clasp the base of the nails of the two thumbs so that the two nails of the forefingers touch back to back.

"Oṃ — Thể-lỗ-lô, cưu-lô-đà-na, ô-hồng, phán, sa-phộc-hạ"

OMÏ VIRULA KRODHANA HÙMÏ PHATÏ SVÀHÀ

_ The Hayagrīva Alms-Begging Mudrā. Turn the left hand palm-up with all five fingers erect. Bring the right hand directed downward, then set the tip of the middle finger and the tip of the ring finger both abiding touching each other.

"Oṃ — Thị-na-gia"

OMÏ JÌNÀYA

The two Mudrās above may be used following the Sharp-Forbidding Sword Mudrā.

If performing this method: First one should bind and forbid Vināyaka. Before the Image of Hayagrīva take the wood of the Cardamom tree, cut eight finger-widths long, then burn it. Take Guggula incense to make eight thousand pellets. Each single time enchant one pellet, then once cast it into the fire to be burned, until the eight thousand pellets are exhausted, whereupon Vināyaka is of himself bound and tied. The Mantra is:

"Homage — Tadyathā: Chủ-lỗ, chủ-lỗ — Tỳ-chủ-lỗ, tỳ-chủ-lỗ — Già-đa-gia-sa, ma-ha-bà-la — Tát-bà-tỳ (trị)-gia, tỳ-na-dạ-càn-bá-tra-sa-mô-cô-tri, bộ-đá-gia, phán"

NAMAHÏ SAMANTA BUDDHÀNÀMÏ TADYATHÀ : CULU CULU VICULU VICULU GATA YAKSÏA MAHÀ BÀLA SARVA VIDYA VINÀYAKA SAMUKTI BUDDHÀYA HÙMÏ PHATÏ

If there is a person who, at night, is at first impure (unclean): Take white thread, enchant it eight hundred times, then after that recite the Mantra while twisting the cord. Each single time enchant, then tie one knot, up to twenty-one knots, then bind it about the waist, and one will not leak and lose it. The Mantra is:

"Homage — Tadyathā: Bột-địa, bột-dịa, tố-bột-địa — Nhận-đạt-lê-bột-địa — Ma-mê-thâu-ca-lam-bà-la-mỗ-giả-đô, sa-ha"

NAMAHÏ SAMANTA BUDDHÀNÀMÏ TADYATHÀ : BUDDHI BUDDHI SUBUDDHI INDRI BUDDHI MA ME ‘SIØGHRAMÏ BHARA MUKTO SVÀHÀ

There is also a method: Enchant the kāṣāya robe. After reciting seven times, tie one knot, and one will at once obtain the accomplishment of Protecting the Body. The Mantra is:

"Tadyathā: Ha-lị, ha-lị, vô-ha-lị, cú-ha-lê — Tát-bà-đột-sắt-đam-chiêm-bà-dạ-nhĩ — Dạ-bạt-yết-lam-địa, na-văn-xã-nhĩ, sa-ha"

(Having recorded the above portion, recite accordingly and it will surely prove efficacious.)
