five aspects of mantra [IW]

Five aspects of Mantra: The thatness of deity (lha'i de kho na nyid) is the relative bodhichitta. The thatness of self (bdag gi kho na nyid) is the mandala of body. The thatness of guhyamantra (gsang sngags kyi kho na nyid) is the placement of the seed syllable and the mantra chain in the center of the heart. The thatness of recitation (bzlas brjod kyi kho na nyid) is the repetition of the root mantra, essence mantra and quintessence mantra. The thatness of emanation and absorption ('phro 'du'i kho na nyid) is the emanating and reabsorbing of light rays from the seed syllable [RY]
