An Explanation of A Sādhana of the Hundred-Syllable Mantra of the King Trisamayavyūharāja
Background
This scripture belongs to Vajrayana Tantra and is recorded in the Kangyur, the collection of the Buddha’s teachings in the Tibetan tradition. Toh 2697 is a sādhana, that is, a system of specific practical instructions for accomplishing the realization of a deity or buddha in Tantra.
King Trisamayavyūharāja is a subtle form of the Buddha in the Tantric sphere, representing the union of the three ultimate elements of the Tantric path: mind, speech, and body (chitta, vāk, kāya). “Three samayas” means the three commitments, the three cores of the dharmakāya that every practitioner must guard. This deity embodies the unerring wisdom of the dharmadhātu, the capacity to arrange and organize the whole sacred expanse into one unified whole.
The Hundred-Syllable Mantra is the root mantra used to invite, delight, and merge with this deity. The number one hundred is not arbitrary, but expresses the fullness and perfection of the Buddhadharma and the boundless capacity for integration in the practitioner.
Main Content
This sādhana guides the practitioner through a strict procedure for accomplishing the spirit of the deity. The method includes the following steps: first, the practitioner must establish sacred time, purifying space and mind through spiritual ablutions. Next, they must visualize themselves transforming into the deities who serve King Trisamaya, creating a mandala-space through wisdom.
The Hundred-Syllable Mantra is the foundation of this practice, recited with diligent effort and with the full concentration of the mind upon its meaning. Each syllable is not merely an ordinary sound, but the direct expression of seed syllables (bīja) containing the essence of different aspects of awakening. In the process of recitation, the practitioner relinquishes coarse concepts and enters deeply into the clear, pure nature of their own mind.
🌏 The Buddhist canon is vast — some sūtras (such as comparative Vinaya across schools, or untranslated Tibetan-canon texts) have to this day NEVER been translated into Vietnamese or English by anyone, scholars included. Rather than leave it blank, Inti AI offers a FAITHFUL summary grounded in the tradition — from the sūtra's title, origin and essence — so you can still reach this rare part of the treasury. Whenever an original translation exists, the app shows the original first.
