The action is joyful spontaneity, without adoption. The result is all-pervading peace, where there is no hope or fear. It is the universal evenness beyond all distinctions of quality or magnitude. It is the utmost ease where the mind has no sorrow. ✦✦ 49 ✦✦ Son, there are sixteen metaphoric practices. Always strip naked. Always perform the great ablution. Take the sun and the moon in your hand. Whirl the wheel. Gaze in the mirror. Cure the sickness caused by the poisons. Untie the rope binding you. Flee from the midst of savage beasts of prey. Reside in the crystal vase. Climb the jewel stairs. Cut the tree at the root. Sleep in the openness of space. Commit suicide. Hasten to the golden isle. Anoint your body with balm. Pick sky flowers. ✦✦ 50 ✦✦ Son, there are five views. Do not get angry at thoughts. Do not be attached to the absolute nature. Do not be proud of concentration. Do not be resentful of anything wrong. Do not be confused with regard to wisdom. the eighty chapters / 301
302 / zurchungpa’s testament ✦✦ 51 ✦✦ Son, there are ten aspects to complete confidence. Everything possible may pour down like rain. The three worlds may overflow like a river. The six mental states may blaze like fire. The one thousand million worlds may be buffeted as if by the wind. The three poisons may gather like darkness. The thousand million worlds may be filled by the sun. Whole continents may be plunged into darkness. Birth and death may be distinct. One may have karmic tendencies. Phenomenal existence may be turned upside down. ✦✦ 52 ✦✦ Son, there are four examples and their meanings. Take the example of a Sugata’s body: whichever way one looks at it, it is beautiful. Similarly, everything one does, if it is permeated with the unborn nature, is bliss. Take the example of a smile and a scowl: two expressions but no more than a face. Similarly, everything that appears, everything that exists, does so within the unborn absolute nature. Take the example of a blind person: it makes no difference whether one smiles at him or not. Similarly, in the absolute nature there is nothing to be adopted or rejected. Take the example of the trunk of a plantain tree: it has no core. Similarly, phenomenal existence has no essence. ✦✦ 53 ✦✦ Son, there are four dissolutions of extremes. In the absolute truth, phenomena are unborn, so they are beyond the extreme of existence. In relative truth, they are unceasing, so they are beyond the extreme of nonexistence. Not existing as distinct phenomena, they are not two, so they are beyond the extreme of both existence and nonexistence.
