  • Tsadra Library Glossary Search/All Gloss Entries/The Hevajra Tantra I/Glossary  + (abhiṣeka;Literally a (purificatory) sprink … abhiṣeka;Literally a (purificatory) sprinkling, the basic sense seems to come close to that of 'baptism'. It has acquired, however, the wider sense of any kind of initiation rite. In the earlier tantric period (as typified by the Mañjuśrīmūlakalpa and the Sarvatathāgatatattvasaṃgraha) it refers primarily to initiation into the mystic significance of the maṇḍala. Since there is explicit analogy with the rite of royal consecration, for which the term abhiṣeka is also used, 'consecration' seems to be the most suitable general translation. But the idea of a purificatory sprinkling is never lost. 'As externally one washes away exterior dirt with water, so one sprinkles water for the washing away of ignorance;it is thus called a sprinkling' (Advayavajrasaṃgraha, p. 36). In accordance with the general theory of the Buddhist tantric yogins, for whom everything goes in fours {Hevajra-tantra, I. i. 30), there are four consecrations : 1. Master-Consecration. 2. Secret Consecration. 3. Consecration in Knowledge of Prajñā. 4. Fourth Consecration. The first consecration may also be known as the Jar-Consecration (kalaśābhiṣeka), for it consists of six subsidiary consecrations, in all of which the ritual jar (kalaśa) is used. These six consecrations are those of Water, Crown, Vajra, Beli, Name, and Master.1 It is presumably because the Master-Consecration completes the set of six, that this name is also given to the whole set. The main set of four, with which the Hevajra-tantra is primarily concerned (see Index, consecrations), is interrelated with other sets of four, especially the four Moments (kṣaṇa), the four Joys (ānanda) and the four Mudrā. Externally they are related with the four classes of tantras and symbolized by the smile, gaze, embrace, and union (II. iii. n and 54). This set of four gestures is presumably related with the actual meeting of yogins and yoginīs at places of pilgrimage (see L vii). Concerning the internal interrelations I quote K(vol. II, p. 107, 1. 24ff.):<br> ' "Consecration is said to be fourfold for the benefit of living beings. One is sprinkled, that is to say cleansed and the consecrations are distin- guished as four." Thus it is said (in our text, II. iii. 10) "the Master, the Secret, the Prajñā and then the Fourth thus", &c. In this yoginī- tantra the Master-Consecration is given, in order that (the initiate) may progress far from evil dharmas. It is his "bond" (samvara). The essential nature of the Master-Consecration is a conferment by means of the Karmamudrā and contains in essence the four Moments and the four Joys. Some say that one can receive the Master-Consecration by the mere receiving of the non-retrogression Consecration (avaivartikābhi- seka1), which is common to the kriyātantras and all the others;one is then worthy, they say, for exposition and initiation in the yoga-tantrasy yoginī-tantras and so on. What an idea is this ? In the first place then one is consecrated with the Master-Consecration in the Hevajra-tantra or some other yoginī-tantra, so that one may be worthy of the initiation, reflection and meditation (which follow). Then in accordance with one's knowledge the Master, the Secret, the Prajñā and the Fourth are charac- terized momentarily and so known.<br> 'In the case of those of weak sensibility, who have received the Master- Consecration, when once their zealous application has been established, they should be given instruction in meditation with the Karmamudrā. Thus under the aspect of the Process of Realization (nispannakrama2) with the Gem (maṇi = tip of the vajra) set in the Secret (= lotus) they experience in accordance with their master's instructions the four Joys which have the nature of four Moments;this experience is the Secret Consecration because it cannot be explained to yogins in terms of diffuse mental concepts.<br> 'Now in the consecration of those of medium sensibility instruction is given in meditation (bhāvanā) on the Samayamudrā. Even thus is Prajñā (Wisdom), for she is the highest knowledge, the knowledge that all the elements (dharmas) are nothing but one's own thought (citta- mātra). For conferring this the consecration is the Consecration of the Knowledge of Prajñā. In the unity of the three veins, which represent the three kinds of consciousness, imaginary (kalpita), contingent (para- tantra) and absolute (parinispanna), one marks the four Moments by means of the Gem and in accordance with one's master's instructions. Because of the external mudrā (= feminine partner) it is properly known as the Knowledge of Prajñā.<br> 'When this consecration has been given, instruction is given to those of strong sensibility in the Dharmamudrā, the mental concentration (samādhi) in which all appears as illusion. And so (it is said: II. iii. io) "then the Fourth thus". It is "thus-ness" (tathatā), the climax of being (bhūtakoti), the elemental sphere (dharmadhātu) and similar names with- out any difference of meaning. The consecration by which its nature is 1 See Hevajrasekaprakriyā, p. 43;correct avaivarnika to read avaivartika, amending translation accordingly. 2 See Glossary below, p. 139, utpattikrama. seen or realized, its "thus-ness", is indicated by the word "thus". "Then" means that it is given immediately after the Consecration in the Knowledge of Prajñā. So this perfection is experienced with the external mudrā and by one's master's instruction, yet by a process of yoga which has no object of experience (anāłambanayogena);it is characterized by the absence of discrimination with regard to definite places of origin. This is the Fourth Consecration.'<br> See also D's interpretation (translated p. 95 fn.), where the stages are related progressively with the four buddhakāya and with personality as expressed in the formula, Body, Speech, and Mind.<br> The Tibetan term dbañ-bskur-ba means literally 'bestowal of power'.ind.<br> The Tibetan term dbañ-bskur-ba means literally 'bestowal of power'.)
