Great-Bliss-Tantric-Sex-and-the-Path-to-Inner-Awakening

Acts (Catur Karma): 1) pacifying (śānti), 2) increasing (pauṣṭi), 3) attracting (ākarṣaṇa), and 4)
destroying (māraṇa). For pacifying, visualize the mantra garland as a white pearl necklace
emanating white rays of light. For increasing, see it as yellow lotus flowers emanating yellow
rays of light. For attracting, as red aśoka flowers emanating red rays. For destroying, as a black
iron chain emanating black rays of light. The mantra garland moves clockwise for pacifying and
increasing, and counter-clockwise for attracting and destroying.
Mantras
Importance of Secrecy - Guhyatva
Verse 128: The fourth daily conduct vow is to keep the mantras of the deity secret.
The seed mantra (bīja mantra) of the deity is the five seed syllable mantra. Śabara established the
practice as an oral tradition, and the sādhana was then written down sometime after he died.
Secrecy was important in medieval India because people with bad intentions could use mantras
like this to perform black magic. Yet the sādhana was ultimately deemed too important not to be
written down out of danger of it being lost, and was wisely saved by one of Śabara’s disciples.
Mantra for Attaining a Pure Realm after Death – Buddha Kṣetra Mantra
Verse 129: The Sanskrit verse does not say “to a pure realm,” but it is clearly implied.
The Five Syllable Seed Mantra – Pañca Akṣara Mantra
Verse 130: Vajravilāsinī’s five-syllable seed mantra (pañca akṣara mantra) is eṃ āṃ rīṃ raṃ
brīṃ. It is used for extensive mantra repetition.
“Adorned with a dot and crescent Moon” refers to the shape of the seed syllables written in
Sanskrit lettering that places a male dot and a female crescent Moon at the top of each syllable.
The Dhāraṇī Mantra – Dhāraṇī Mantra
Verse 131: The dhāraṇī mantra of Vajravilāsinī brings the fulfillment of all desires.
Verse 132: In forming the complete dhāraṇī mantra of the devī, the main body of the mantra is
given first.
The dhāraṇī mantra of Vajravilāsinī is used mostly for blessing ritual objects and fire pūjās.
