The Shangpa Masters and Their Lineage 271 The Melody of Wonder: A Supplication to the Incomparable Mokchok-pa, by Jamgon Kongtrul Victor’s heir who spontaneously accomplished the two goals, Master prophesied by the dakini, Indisputable lord of accomplishment, illustrious Mokchok-pa, Venerable Rinchen Tsöndru, to you I pray. You were born at Lhapu, Shang, within the Shéu clan. You entered Buddhism and relied correctly on your spiritual master. Having resolved your misunderstandings, you meditated. A definite certainty was born within you; to you I pray. Moved by having met a man whose study made him insensitive to the teachings, You vowed to search for profound instruction. From Khampa Aseng, you received sovereign tantras’ Profound creation and completion practices; to you I pray. From Venerable Burgom, you received Noble Réchungpa’s creation and completion practices. When you meditated upon them, You displayed signs to your enemies, saw Noble Vajra Yogini’s face, And attained meditative states; to you I pray.
272 Timeless Rapture From Könkar, Yorpo, Dorjé Gyal, and other masters, You received many source texts’ profound instructions, mainly of the transcendent perfection of knowledge. In particular, the great, accomplished master Kyungpo accepted you as his disciple. You pleased him in many ways; to you I pray. Not withholding anything, Kyungpo gave you every profound instruction He received from his four root masters, to whom he offered gold. Further, he gave you his single-disciple transmission. You always saw his body as that of the tantric deities; to you I pray. You actualized illusionlike absorption. You knew the one that liberates all; your wisdom’s display unfolded. You tamed all evil spirits And made many beings happy; to you I pray. You saw the face of Buddha Immutable, the two wisdom dakinis, Indrabodhi, Vajra Yogini, And in particular Héruka— They gave you deep and vast sacred Teachings; to you I pray. When you arrived in the presence of the incomparable Dakpo, Gampopa, He said that you had been his disciple-child in many lifetimes; he treated you lovingly. He led you to direct sight of ultimate enlightenment’s naked body. Your realization and liberation occurred simultaneously; to you I pray. Gampopa entrusted you with the transmission of Great Seal’s lineage. Your meditative states’ power became complete. From that point forth, for as long as you lived, you never thought of this life. Bodhisattva in your final life, to you I pray. For twelve years at Mokchok Cliff, You renounced human food and practiced single-mindedly.
