The Buddha addressed Vajra Secret Bodhisattva Mahasattva explaining this vajra lord siddhi seal and
the mantra letters.

Abide in the quiet stillness free from all mental states, the moon-loving samadhi, with a disk between
your eyebrows. Next carefully contemplate seeing clearly universal manifestation, all the tathagata's
vajra wish-fulfilling mani jewel as the same one dharma nature, one true realm of reality, the single
taste of thusness. Not coming, nor going, no characteristics nor cause, the pure dharmakaya, the
illuminated perfectly extinct ocean. Like this the eight hundred vajra verses all originate from the
samadhi of the one dharma nature. Carefully contemplating thusness, the gate of non-duality, you are
able to enter the tathagata's ocean of perfect extinction. The verse of the arising of good knowledge as
well as the entering verse is the yoga siddhi of all ritual observances. All the wholesome enlightened
practices in an instant of practice free you from beginning-less delusion. The 84,000 marvelous
dharma gates, are entered into the one letter mantra seal. As are the sands of the Ganges river, so the
merit of this cannot be reckoned, extensively saving sentient beings without limit. The emptiness of
person, emptiness of dharma, the emptiness of self-nature, the one true realm of reality is
fundamentally empty. The ten directions are tamed by perfect enlightenment, this same foundation is
like the vajra verses. One verse, one seal, one mantra. After that from the mind disk at the head it
spreads to both shoulders, the left and right, to the tips of both ears, between the eyebrows, between the
eyebrows at the hairline it flows above the neck, to the two cheeks and the other human characteristics,
the lips, teeth, eyes, gums, throat, to both arms, the ten fingers of wisdom, the chest in front, and the
back behind, to both legs, the navel chakra, next above to the vajra palace, the mind-king, bright moon
store, abiding in the center, pearl banners and jewel parasols set out everywhere, with no
characteristics, not coming, nor going, the two eyes the lotus and vajra lamps, a delightfully playing

fragrance to the olfactory faculty, stably sitting in the siddhi of the vajra disk of pure radiance like a full
moon. In this way (contemplate) body, mind, and the one-hundred and eight verses. Next contemplate
making clear the sudden awakening secret enlightenment seal, the omniscient journey on the path to
nirvana. To posit the mundane siddhis, after being consecrated, uphold and recite this. Truly this is
the tathagata's victory that gives rise to the child of fulfillment, the pure white teaching of the one
vehicle. The devas and armies of mara all see this person, and with hands clasped praise him calling
him the savior the world. Again they said, The Vajra unmoving wisdom, is the ultimate
accomplishment of Buddha dharmakaya field. Within the yoga of ultimate truth section it is explained
to revere and follow the worldly spiritual guide, who transmits the Bhagavan's secret gate. The eight
classes of spiritual being, dragon, devas and so forth together look up with reverence (to the teacher).
Desiring to practice, desiring to sit and with mindfulness uphold and recite this then, give rise to purity,
and enter the pure characteristics of speech. The mouth contains a golden vajra, the two eyes a mat(
) to remove overnight obstacles. Always think on a bright moon mirror while sitting, vastly
pervading the extent of space of the dharmadhatu. The mind obtains omniscience, not going or
coming, the merit continuously going out widely transferring to others.

Entering the dharmakaya contemplation gate.

Prostrate at the feet of vMahavairocana Buddha, all the tathagata's vajrasekhara, within the great
dharmadhatu bodhimanda. With one mind contemplate to see clearly Sumeru Vaisrava which is greatly
and exceedingly rare, and with supernormal cognition, the power of sages, climb to the top. See
everywhere in the ten directions buddha fields, and thus holding in one's palms a mani pearl, awaken
this samadhi of heroic valor and calmly abide in the tathagata's auspicious ground.
Prostrate to Mahavairocana Buddha, all the tathagata's vajra king, omniscient radiance, the tranquil
sea, in the ten directions he is proclaimed with good praises of the highest manner. As the grains of
sand in the Ganges river so is this merit all completely perfect, with no characteristics, pure and so
forth, and truly empty. Awaken to this samadhi enlightened seal, and calmly abide in the tathagata's
auspicious ground.

Prostrate at the feet of Mahavairocana Buddha, all the tathagata's vajra peak. The crown protuberance,
limitless and invisible, going out to the world's seas in the ten directions. A thousand crags, tenthousand valleys, mani jewels surpassing in manifestation beryl, and crystal receptacles. Awaken to
this samadhi of the myriad phenomena jewel, and calmly abide in the tathagata's auspicious ground.
Prostrate at the feet of Mahavairocana Buddha, all the tathagata's vajra life. Life span that is
inexhaustible, and cannot be reckoned, water, birds, tree groves, the ultimate bliss ground. People born
from within flowers, birds that emerge from pearls and with the dharma voice sing. Bodhisattvas bathe
in the golden sand's water, and single pointedly from the ten directions receive assurance of their last
life. Awaken to this alacrity of non-retrogressive contemplation, and calmly abide in the tathagata's
auspicious ground.

Prostrate at the feet of Mahavairocana Buddha, all the tathagata's vajra seats. The ocean seal, as the
sands of the Ganges river so are the siddhi jewels, limitless, the well-gone ones climb to the top.
Perfect light of the dharmadhatu free from obscurations, like observing a moon reflected in a mirror.
The Lion carries atop his head complete emptiness, a canopy with the seven jewels, gold, lotus flowers,
and pearls. Awaken to this samadhi siddhi seal, and calmly abide in the tathagata's auspicious ground.
Prostrate at the feet of Mahavairocana Buddha, all the tathagata's vajra body. Vastly extending
throughout the dharmadhatu without restriction according to the manifestation of a body of complete
emptiness. Able with this one body to create many bodies, and again manifest from many bodies the
characteristics of the one body. Having a body with characteristics is expedient means, non-self,

without characteristics, this is unconditioned. Awaken to this samadhi nivana palace, and obtain
entrance into the tathagata's auspicious ground.
Mahavairocana's flowing out of siddhi characteristics reply verses dharani:
