“Om ah hung vajra guru padma siddhi hung.
I see no realm of hell, only that of the pinnacle pure realm, the basic space of phenomena.
I see no Yama Dharmaraja, only the dharmakaya Samantabhadra.
I see no hosts of wrathful minions, only the peaceful and wrathful deities of the mandalas.
I see no fair and dark children of karma, only the self-appearing dynamic energy of transcendent knowledge and skillful means.52
I see no laypeople, monks, or nuns, only the pure realm of the entire vast range of cosmic purity. I see no end results of virtuous and harmful acts, only the dynamic energy of intrinsic awareness adorning the true nature of reality.
I see no distinction between those with a connection or those without,
only that all are connected implicitly in the basic space of phenomena.
I see no higher and lower realms of being, only the pristine purity of conditioned existence and of the state of peace.
Quickly, quickly, everyone—follow me!”
