Samādhi (Bhrānti Samādhi), perceive all appearances absorbed in an awareness that they are not substantively real but illusions. You see everything as empty of self-nature, like a dream generated by your mind, or as pure and perfect buddha wisdom. Exercises Perform the following exercises for at least a month will prepare you well for Tantric practices. Suggested Items Add to your altar in your sacred space: 1. A copy of a Mahāyāna sūtra. 2. An image or images of Mahāyāna buddhas and bodhisattvas to whom you feel devotion. Wisdom – Prajñā Develop wisdom each day by contemplating the profound insights of the Mahāyāna sūtras. Benefits: You realize the pervasiveness of suffering and cultivate ways to help all beings. Time: 1-2 hours per week; continuously. Opening Practices - Sevā Begin each practice session with the following: 1. Recite the Refuge Vow. buddham śaraṇam gacchāmi dharmam śaraṇam gacchāmi saṅgham śaraṇam gacchāmi “I go for refuge to the Buddha.” “I go for refuge to the Dharma.” “I go for refuge to the Saṅgha.” Recite 3x. 70
2. Recite the Bodhisattva Vow. viśuddhaṃ dhārayiṣyāmi yathā buddhena deśitaṃ tena jitvā śaṭhamāraṃ prāpya buddhatvam uttamaṃ bhaveyaṃ bhavakhinnānāṃ śaraṇaṃ sarvadehināṃ “I will maintain purity, as taught by the Buddha. Conquering the demon Mara, and attaining supreme buddhahood, I vow to be a refuge for all beings, weary of saṃsāra.” Recite 3x. 3. Practice Meditation on the Buddhas. Benefits: Develops strong aspiration for enlightenment, purifies obscurations. Time: 9 minutes. Meditation on the Buddhas - Buddhānu Smṛiti Meditate on Buddha Amitābha and his pure realm of Sukhāvatī. You can also perform this devotional practice with other buddhas. 1. Visualize Amitābha in front of you: He is red, with one face, two arms, wears the flowing garments of a buddha, and sits on a red lotus. His hands are in the Gesture of Meditation (Dhyāna Mudrā). The bodhisattvas Avalokiteśvara and Mañjuśrī stand to his left and right. 2. With devotion, recite his mantra oṃ amideva hriḥ many times. 3. Pray to Amitābha for what you desire. 4. Dissolve the visualization into emptiness. Benefits: You receive the protection and blessings of one of the greatest buddhas. Time: 5 minutes. 71
