  • Tsadra Library Glossary Search/All Gloss Entries/Deity Mantra and Wisdom/Glossary  + (The bardo, or intermeditate state, typicalThe bardo, or intermeditate state, typically refers to the state that occurs between death and a future rebirth. It can also, however, refer to the transitional periods that constitute the entire stream of existence, inclusive of birth, dreaming, meditation, death, reality itself, and transmigration. Concerning the specific completion stage practice, Dza Patrul writes (referring to the three intermediate states of death, reality itself, and transmigration), "In the first intermediate state, one brings luminosity onto the path as dharmakāya. In the second, union is brought onto the path as sambhogakāya. And in the third, rebirth is taken onto the path as nirmāṇakāya." [DR 445]en onto the path as nirmāṇakāya." [DR 445])
  • Tsadra Library Glossary Search/All Gloss Entries/The Hevajra Tantra I/Glossary  + (The basic meaning is seal or sign, especiaThe basic meaning is seal or sign, especially a hand-sign, which is the literal interpretation of the Tibetan term phyag-rgya. The related meaning 'symbol', presumably reached by way of 'symbolic gesture', has led to this word being used in a variety of special meanings, which seem at first to take one far from the basic meaning. As everything goes in fours (I. i. 30), there are four Mudrā:<br> karmamudrā 'Rite Symbol'<br> samayamudrā 'Convention Symbol'<br> dharmamudrā 'Truth Symbol'<br> mahāmudrā 'Great Symbol'<br> The karmamudrā refers to the feminine partner, normally known as the Prajñā ('Wisdom'), who plays an essential part in the second and third consecrations (see abhiṣeka). The term mudrā itself is commonly used as a synonym for Prajñā in this special sense (see Index).<br> The samayamudrā refers to the use of conventional symbolic forms in meditation, e.g. concentration upon Heruka. See samaya below.<br> The dharmamudrā refers to realization of the Absolute itself (dkar- madhātu).<br> The mahāmudrā is identical with the Joy Innate and is the final goal of the tantric yogin's practice. As such, it is one of the names given to their whole school.<br> This set of four is not referred to explicitly in the Hevajra-tantra, where the only terms in use are mudrā in the sense of feminine partner1 and mahāmudrā, which is used not only to refer to the final goal, but also in the sense of partner, for she is identified with the central vein, Avadhūtī, the blazing Candāll who is Nairātmyā (II. iv. 40-47).<br> In the Advayavajrasaṃgraha (pp. 32 ff.) there is a short work on the Four Mudrā, of which the correct title is Caturmudrāniscaya2 and the author in fact the Mahāsiddha Nāgārjuna, who was master of Advaya- vajra (alias Maitṛpa). The mudrā are discussed there in the order: karmamudrā—dharmamudrā—mahāmudrā—samayamudrā; the first three are conceived of as definite grades of realization, but the last seems to be added without any integral connexion with the others. In his own short work on the subject (Caturmudropadeéa, Narthang Tenjur, vol. xlvii, pp. 220b-224a) Maitṛpa sets the four symbols side by side with the four joys:<br> karmamudrā ānanda<br> dharmamudrā paramānanda<br> mahāmudrā sahajānanda<br> samayamudrā viramānanda<br> Maitṛpa's argument for placing the Joy Innate third has been given briefly on p. 35. If this comes third, then the mahāmudrā must also be placed third. One suspects here an artificial scheme, for it is associated with no improved interpretation of them as a coherent set.laced third.

  • Tsadra Library Glossary Search/All Gloss Entries/The Hevajra Tantra I/Glossary  + (The basic meaning is that of 'coming togetThe basic meaning is that of 'coming togethe* in the literal sense of 'concurrence'. In tantric practice it refers to the 'concurrence' of absolute being and phenomenal forms, by means of which the practiser may experience that which by its very nature he would otherwise have no means of experiencing. The maṇḍala and the different forms of the divinities are means of just such a kind. In this sense we may translate samaya as 'conventional form', observing that 'con-vention' has also the literal meaning of 'coming together'. Samaya also refers to types of ritual food. The meaning is still the same, but it has seemed suitable to use the term 'sacrament' in these contexts. The samaya is always the outward sign of an inner hidden power. The Tibetan term dam-tshig means primarily 'pledge' or 'guarantee', which is precisely the function of the 'sacrament'.precisely the function of the 'sacrament'.)
