Divination Turtles ([[rus sbal]])
[[tshal gsal]] - Prasana-pada, the ''Clear Words'' by [[Chandrakirti]], [commentary on {[[rtsa ba shes rab]]} by Nagarjuna] [RY]
*The concept of the divination turtle is to be understood on various levels. Firstly, the divination turtle of the natural state ([[gnas lugs rus sbal]]) refers to the emptiness or expanse of actual reality (Skt. [[dharmadhātu]]) in which all buddhas and sentient beings are fully present. The divination turtle of the material world ([[chags pa'i rus sbal]]), comprising the five elements, emerged from the divination turtle of the natural state, and from their contact the divination turtle of sentient existence ([[srid pa'i rus sbal]]), including sentient beings of all classes and the eight trigrams subsequently emerged. However, it was through the divination turtle of emanation ([[sprul pa'i rus sbal]]) that [[Manjughoṣa]] expounded the science of elemental divination at Mount Wu Tai Shan in China. Finally, the reliquary divination turtle ([[ring srel gyi rus sbal]]), also known as the divination turtle of exegesis ([[bshad pa'i rus sbal]]) or incision ([[bshas pa'i rus sbal]]) refers to the actual teachings of elemental divination which Manjughoṣa reputedly imparted to Brahmā, Vijaya, Nāgarāja Takṣaka, and Brahmāṇa Kapila at Mount Wu Tai Shan.
