This is just anything you need practice. You could apply this from the, this is a kind of a higher level about Anitara, definition about Anitara. a definition that you can apply to the law of Tantra via the practice.
[16:14]
One can apply that. That's a special delirium. Special delirium is the practice of Guli, because that is the trick to yoga to the Narva.

What is our ultimate understanding of the Tugu? What is ultimate understanding of the Lingu? What is the ultimate understanding of the Tugu? And it's all very clear. And understand that I was going to ask. And then he says each of those has also spontaneousness.
[17:21]
There's a situation of spontaneousness. You can count it. He says counting of the to count. There are three kinds of spontaneous definition of each of these Tunggu Mienguchugu. And that is called the... What do you call that thing? Absolutely spontaneously upon the result. So now you can come to the understanding of the terminology, phrase, which is maybe may have been said before.
[18:28]
called lam desu, the basis, lam is the path and the devil is the adult. Now I look again, in order to furthermore to untie this abstract meaning, here the author is saying, furthermore, that the tulku The Nemanagaya is actually come from the great compassion, which is also something that has to do with the clergy.

To make that balance, a tongba and a ninja can be a balance. The balance part of it is to you, it's called. So you make a balance. If you have a sour, a great sour and a less tongba, then it's a hindrance. If you have a bad versa, if you have a great tongba and a less sour, then it also becomes hindrance. So you have to balance that. That balance thing is going to do.
[20:56]
what it comes out of that balance that one of the completely balanced like a balanced level you know when we put the level on the table, completely balanced and then it level up and that is called a manjotogu that's the dhamma kai, the sambhogakai sambhogakai is completely balanced and whereas a puku is completely emotional, very much emotional, concussion, loving kindness, generating so much thing, so therefore it can manifest everywhere, clearly. And the true good is wisdom, generating so much wisdom. So in the real-time site, there is some kind of tree.
[21:58]
Everything is not so difficult. Everything is really easy. It's not cluttered. That's why the species, that is called tree. So we do that. Look at this. These are also more concerning about the specific area that they divided into this way. But however, in the absolute sense, which means in the real sense, Kusumbu means all three bodies. Kusumbu means all three bodies.
[23:08]
Kusumbu means all three bodies. Kusumbu means all three bodies. In general, just before that was something else to do with caching and something else to do with the clarity. You add that Dhamakaya is something that has to do with the emptiness and wisdom and some sort of separation, right? He says, although there seems to be a separation of that characteristic of each that has its own characteristic of that, but in an absolute sense, each of those things has all three qualities of the Sawa and Tongva and the music. Yama. Yama. Yama, they all mean they're not separated from Egypt. They don't Yama, they all mean this. It's not separated from that pair, or from that tree, three characteristics.
[24:20]
And, you're thinking, which means , which is the great compassion one. The nature of that is , which is the absence of activities. is not being separated away from the absence of activity, which means So they thought it was a 2 in 1 It fell because... It's not separated from mamma on the race
[25:23]
Yeah. So you have this compassionate nature, it becomes activity, but it's not separated from elaboration. Like, in non-elaboration, therefore, there's no activity. Therefore, it's turn one. You have no activity and you have compassion from the thing. Oh, okay, that's a better answer. I've got a girl with absence of activities. Elaboration, activity... Uh... Elaboration... Absent of elaboration. Yeah. What is that book? You know, existence and other existence, all those things. We can divide it into four, first three, then four, then eight. That is called the towers. So it is, the nature of that is all the dhradeh.
[26:30]
So, from that is my separate saying. Madhévé means, from that nature of that dhradeh always dhradeh. Even kūgu is always stay in the dhradeh. I mean, great compassion is, the nature of compassion is dhradeh. Even emotional love, compassion, looks like something is a, But in the Buddhist Sattva or the Buddha, compassion is always termed for the third day. Therefore, it is Junggyu. And then it's talking about Chiu Gu. Dharmathaya, the great wisdom, is Nyingzhi Gyudama, there was. The Dharma guy is not separated from the primary cause of compassion.
[27:33]
The primary cause of compassion is not separated. What is the primary cause of compassion is again back to the video. But then the real thing you keep its nature is the shield chamber, the wisdom. Freedom. The primary cause of a kinkajim is freedom, not space. Right? That nature of space is the wisdom. That nature is the shield with palm and fire. That nature is also Shindu, which is not separated from the space and also the emptiness. The nature of compassion and the nature of the emptiness of the compassion is two in one.
[28:39]
And therefore, Shindu. And Nunggu Yang Twing Bu Do Shindu Ni, The Sambukagaya also, the Sambukagaya is to produce and manifest the source of Yinimara Kaya, which is also clarity and great compassion. So usually the 1000 Buddha comes to the planet or something like that. Those are also coming from the termination of the knowledge of the Buddha. There is a look at that, manifesting that.
[29:44]
Why is it manifesting that? There is any compassion. Union to symbol. Union to symbol. Chukudama, there was a tomba, tomba silver symbols. The dama kaya. Ah, I see. What we are talking about here is describing the Sambokakaya's contents, all three contents. The Sawa, which is the primary source to manifest the Nirmarikaya, which is also generating the heat of the
[30:51]
compassion energy, or the compassion is the one which is also generating the minimara kaya. And then it also has the nature of the two groups, dhamakaya, which is not separated from the emptiness, which is also created wisdom. quality is there. Those are, you know, it's the emptiness and the wisdom. That which is the emptiness and the wisdom cannot be separated. We are made in the insatiable. It's the thing to do. It's the word acronym.
[31:55]
It's the situation of the alignment of the Dharma Zion. It's the word acronym. It's the word acronym. It's the situation of the alignment of the Dharma Zion. Those also, in that nature, to that nature, on the count of that nature, simultaneously, spontaneous nature of that is, in that it has a samsara quality. It's going to be spontaneous or what do you call it? It's going to be spontaneous, not spontaneous.
[32:58]
Okay, it's going to be spontaneous, okay? Spontaneous. We are talking about the Yanxi is the nature of our nature of our mind consciousness. has quality of Vimana Gaya and Dhamma Gaya and Sambhagaya but it's the nature of that without that nature, intrinsic nature or basic nature of that spontaneously born here that is merely to say samsara but if you have qualified if you have a kind of educated sort of speaking then they are doing it on the basis of the significance of the knowledge of those nature of that primary nature of that transformation for the nature of the human being is called the nirvana and so the primary
[34:16]
from the point of view of the clarity, and the emptiness, and the dual aspect of what we have in everyday life. That is called samsara. And then the qualified, or the educated, and leading to a more kind of a texture, of the real texture, high quality, and a transformation, it's called. Majority is a transformation. And when that happens, only the person becomes a Buddha. Which means the name is Nirvana, some sound of Nirvana. Then the kind of the nature of Vigaud Yerimittos, that kind of, which means spontaneously born, that nature of us, we have that. from the beginning we are pondering into the bone by very well.
[35:20]
At the same time, the transformation of that characteristic is cannot be separated from that is pondering into the bone nature. Therefore, it is a yearling. Don't do it. [...] Sintu here is we are born from the beginning. We are always being born from the beginning. We will be born all the time. And that is called Sintu. But if we kind of cultivated and transformed into kind of that transformation about that is contains within the Junduk situation of the Junduk.
[36:21]
If there is no Junduk, there is no, in other words, there is no destination. So you, Dennis, I get accomplished with you. I don't think you get accomplished. [...] Likewise, then the teacher explained, should explain, I know what he says here, should explain like that, and then let them understand, students understand, hearing, contemplation, and cutting the doubts, making and cutting doubts, and letting them to meditate, letting them to study or to understand. what is the actually going wrong or what we are.
[37:21]
And then having done that, then after that, then to the method of that meditation is then to be explained how we meditate. How should one meditate? To do that is an application. The doctrine of this particular method has three applications or three doctrines. Three terminates, three preparations, three actual things to do, three conclusions of the all together there are nine things to do in this country in order to accomplish.
[38:26]
Tala Tangbulas Tangbulas here is talking about the application to beginning begins to the application of the introduction or the beginning of those three one of these three things to do is to meditate on their compassion. To meditate on Bodhichitta. That is the one. And then secondly, to meditate Guru on top of your head. And thirdly, to meditate self-generation of your Self-Best Deity. That is the Jorvetism. It's called application, three application. I've got it. To prove that, the first application of that preparation. Preparation, yeah. Drawers, preparation.
[39:30]
Drawers, preparation. Drawers, preparation. Preparation. And then, of course, in preparation, the contemplation generation, generating the bodhisattva can be the seven, to do that, what we need, what job can be one beginner should do. That is explained here. Emba means a very quiet, silent, isolated. Emba means an emba which means absence of distraction place. There are distractions that occur to any kind of musician in the supermarket, and all the daily activities, you know, that party, going, things, and building towns to go shopping, and so on and so forth.
[40:32]
These are called distractions. So, way from that, in the place, a quiet place, near Su, someday you tell them, tell them it's a conduct. The behavior of a body posture is talking about a samadhi posture, something to draw on me, a samadhi contact. It says that the samadhi posture, proper samadhi posture with the seven limbs, putting it together, right? then proceed with a refuge. The Ungganda Dowa means to proceed first. They are seeking a refuge. From that, then generates a long period of time buddhijitta, contagion.
[41:43]
Then In between that, this particular meditation generating long time, terms, period of time, to generating the compassion, and proceeds with the refuge prayers, with the proper manner of a posture, with the seeking, special quiet place. It is the necessity to, and it's an important necessity to, in the future, to transform all the activities for the benefit of other selfing beings. And that the root of virtue is to transform into easily to, without any difficulties, working for the Bani Kadu Seng Shing beings, it is very important to proceed to generate compassion and refuge.
[42:53]
Second is Lama Jir Gomba, which is the Guru Yoga. We're talking about the Guru Yoga. In our practice in Guru Yoga, we're usually contemplating On top of our head, lotus flower, moon cushion or sun and moon cushion. And then the root guru is like a manifest. Your root guru is like a... I'm interested in the nature of it, but it's manifesting as your immediate root guru, lama, or whoever that is. That's how you meditate. And you go... Now, like previously, as it had been taught, on top of all, they had to meditate with the Guru, and then to generate strongly their devotion and inspiration of faith very strongly.
[44:01]
And then after that, the Swatap, which is requesting prayer. Because of that, having done the requested prayer, Because of that, in here, the circumstances arises. Now, that circumstance is the result that Guru on top of your head is dissolved into yourself when you meditate that sense, right? Some days, that, you know,
