Through much listening and
learning from great masters,
experience has arisen and so, to arouse the
enlightened mind,
I arrange clearly
these vajra verses:
the Noble

you fortunate ones
who enter this path
proceed with
unwavering diligence.
The Great Chariot
Traversing
This ngondro, (preliminary), text can be practiced
daily. During retreat one should arise at the time of calling
keeping the outer discipline of the monk, novice or layman,
whatever is appropriate to your training and circumstance,
and having the sincere motivation to
generate bodhicitta, assemble together.

Secondly the entire universe and
its contents are impermanent,

Prostrate with devotion
to the refuge jewels.
Keeping the commitments and instructions of the secret-mantra Vajra Master
one should take ones place in the row seated in the fve-point meditation posture
Without succumbing to the power of the eight worldly dharmas, turn ones thoughts entirely to dharma, and at the time of chanting
keep unwavering concentration, inseparable from an equanimous mind. Recite the teaching on the human body
with its eighteen conditions
so diffcult to fnd:
Death and
impermanence:

this time should be used with purpose.
