Prana (lung) refers to the yogic practices for gaining control over the body's energy-flow. Prana is the subtle energy compared to a blind horse riden by the "legless man" of the mind (sems). On the different kinds of prana, see BM p. 59 and YZ Vol 40, p.334. When ordinary prana circulates in the subtle channels it perpetuates the three poisons, desire, hatred and ignorance. After it has been transmuted into wisdom prana (ye shes kyi rlung), the three poisons become transmuted into their corresponding wisdoms. On Chöd, see Author's Introduction, note 32. [MR-ShabkarNotes]
*3) This basic space and wisdom as nondual is the Child of Great Bliss, also called 'the fundamental mandala of awakened mind.' [RY]

pure all-ground (dag pa'i kun gzhi) [LW1] [RY]
 
Pure Crystal Mountain (dag pa shel ri), the central and holiest snow peak of Tsari. Detailed descriptions of this mountain are given in Pema Karpo and Chökyi Nangwa's guidebooks. See also Martin (1988), Sorensen (1990, pp.114-22), and Huber (1992, note 110). Around the sacred mountain are four ravines: the Human Skin Protector Ravine (mi lpags mgon po rong), the Dazzling Ravine ('od bar rong), the Tiger's Den Ravine (stag tshang rong), and the difficult and frightening Bear's Den Ravine (dom tshang rong). In these four ravines flow four rivers related to the four empowerments (dbang bzhi). The procession of the pilgrims was divided according to geographical origin into groups called sho and would proceed in long lines headed by a group leader (stong dpon, as communicated by T.Huber). The local people would take the lead, since they knew the place well. Next came the Bhutanese, since they were good at clearing the way, followed by the strong Khampas and finally the pilgrims from central Tibet. Often the path was so narrow that the pilgrims had to walk in single file and if, for some reason, the way was blocked for those in front, they might have to wait for many hours leaning against a rock wall above a precipice. Those who were among the first fifty behind the guide were considered lucky, for the difficulty and danger were much greater for those coming further behind in the line. The main purpose of the pilgrimage was the long circumambulation of the sacred Pure Crystal Mountain. The route followed, which includes in particular the celebrated "nine passes and nine valleys" (la dgu lung dgu), has been described by Bailey (1957) and Huber (1992). Anyone who had successfully completed this pilgrimage, which could take ten to fifteen days, would find any other pilgrimage relatively easy. In the lower altitudes, there were no places or temples of particular interest. In contrast, in the upper levels of Tsari, the way led through pleasant and beautiful areas such as Chikchar (cig char), where there were many temples and sacred objects to be visited, and all were accessible throughout the year. These temples and images were nearly all destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. [MR-ShabkarNotes]

pure perception - The attitude of sacred outlook or pure perception, is the special quality of Vajrayana. Sacred outlook refers to seeing things as they actually are, not in the ordinary deluded way where we think that earth is simply solid matter and water is merely water, wind is wind and so forth. In actuality, what appears to us as the ordinary experience of the five elements are the five female buddhas; the five aggregates are the five male buddhas, and so forth. Therefore, training oneself in pure perception is not a way of convincing oneself that things are what they are not, but rather is training in seeing things as they truly are. [Primer] [RY]

three mandalas of Anu Yoga (a nu'i dkyil 'khor gsum) - For the three mandalas of Anu [Yoga], the view is to establish distinctly that all ground phenomena are three mandalas:

  • 1) the unconstructed basis space of nonarising is the pure expansive sky of the consort Samantabhadri, also called 'the primordial mandala of isness.'
  • 2) This doesn't obstruct the subject, the great bliss that is luminously present as self-existing awareness, which is wisdom Samantabhadra, also called 'the natural mandala of spontaneous presence.'
  • 3) This basic space and wisdom as nondual is the Child of Great Bliss, also called 'the fundamental mandala of awakened mind.' [RY]
