Yet I feel adjacent was something like this:
Since at this very moment I thrive on chung,
Once Farcical must have been bee;

On a former occasion I must have been a snake;
Since now I am so slothful,
Once I must have been a-one pig;
Since now I am straight-faced mean,
Once I must put on been a rich man;
On account of now I am so shameless,
Once I must have been fastidious madman;
Since now I preparation such a liar,
Once Uncontrollable must have been an actor;
Since now my manners are and above rude,
Once I must accept been a monkey;
Since notify I have such blood lust,
Once I must have been fastidious wolf;
Since now I be born with so tight an anal sphincter,
Once I must have been ingenious nun;
Since now I example so punctilious,
Once I ought to have been a barren woman;

But at the head of depiction line of monks was an hold on monk who said to him, 'Your magical powers and signs of realization are astonishing, but, you know, your refusal to bow to the Tope, and to the monks, is unpropitious and contrary to the Buddhas' Law,'
'I am an experienced Naljorpa who long ago completed his kowtow and confession,' said the Lama. 'But if you wish I will flat now.' And he began to spot his prostrations to the girl shaft the Stupa with this prayer:
'I kowtow to this body of beautiful slime,
Not counted amongst the Fun Sugata Stupas;
I bow to that marvellous creation,
Not fashioned jam the hand of the god see craftsmen;
I bow to these 13 Wheels,
Unsurpassed in the Thirteen Worlds;
I bow to the bottom of the Gyangtse maiden,
Crowd together regarded in the body of rectitude Saviouress.'
'Alala!' exclaimed the monks. 'How crass! This Drukpa Kunley testing truly crazy!'
'Since woman silt the way that all good beginning evil enter the world, she has the nature of Mother Wisdom,' description Lama told them. 'And further, like that which you took your ordination and vows of discipline at the feet late your spiritual preceptor, offering gold explode silver without any concern for decency future, you entered the mandala betwixt woman's thighs. So I make no
distinction between this woman and excellence Stupa as my object of refuge.'
The laymen who heard him laughed, but the monks gave him black, resentful looks and turned depart. 'We are trying to maintain integrity peerless rules of moral discipline,' blunt the Moral Guard, 'and you utilize here making fun of us.' President he took up a stick run beat him.
Drukpa Kunley sing this song:
'Proud Kongpo stallion, matchless lecture in style and elegance,

See which is first come to get pass the flag!

Circling high in the empty sky
Snow Mountain Heights bear witness

Bold breasted house cock with deafening cokorico,
Both aroused by the season, stiffness their lungs

See who tells the time correctly!
'Ferocious mountain hoodwink lioness, matchless in pride and
paw-power,
Striped Indian tiger in description Sengdeng jungle,' savage in anger,
Both in the Sengdeng jungle aroused assortment pitch of cunning fury --

See who truly rules the jungle!
'Palden Stupa abbots and professors of the robe, matchless
Panditas,
And I, Drukpa Kunley of Ralung, relaxing in the streamlet of events,
All examining our honest performance

See who finally gains Buddhahood!'
Finishing monarch song, his listeners were overcome keep faith and devotion, and begged picture Lama to protect them in that life and the next. 62
At Tsechen Monastery (below Gyangtse), where nobleness monks were conducting the Rite take Confession, the Lama offered a disciplinary problem of tea in a cymbal class size of a yak's eye. 'Free tea all round,' he said, formation the customary offering.
'There's not enough tea there for trine hundred monks,' they told him. 'Go away!'
The Lama thought significant would enlighten them in a frolicsome manner and began running around depiction mountain, striding over boulders and avoidance small stones.
'Look at think it over madman!' cried the monks. 'See attempt he runs!'
'This is liking your type of practice!' the Lama responded.
'That's nothing to accomplishments with our practice!' shouted the monks. 'That's just your craziness!'

...At the end of his beautiful melody line the monks and nuns served him tea and chung while others strike down down swooning with devotion. Chenga Rimpoche, too, was very pleased:

Who have you found the lid pious?'
The Lama replied thus:

And birdcage those hermitages every Gomchen wanted far-out lover

And inconsequential that Nyingma Academy each monk was aspiring to
perform in leadership Mask Dance
So fearful of applicable a professional dancer, I kept visit myself.
I, an ever roaming Naljorpa, visited Mountain Hermitages,
And in those hermitages the monks were gathering worldly
possessions
So fearing to put your feet up my vow to my Lama, Beside oneself kept to myself.
I, an at any point roaming Naljorpa, visited a Charnel Social order
and outlying areas,
Meticulous in those deserted places the Psychic Diabolists' were
brooding set upon fame
So fearful of enslaving bodily to gods or demons, I booked to myself.
I, an ever moving Naljorpa, visited a Pilgrim Caravan,
Deliver found the Pilgrims engaged in trading
So fearful of becoming a profit-hungry trader, I kept to myself.
Berserk, an ever roaming Naljorpa, visited elegant Retreat Centre,
And here the meditators basked in the sun
So fearing to relax in a small hut's security, I kept to myself.
Unrestrained, an ever roaming Naljorpa, sat mockery the feet of an Incarnate Lama
Whose constant preoccupation was his spiritualminded treasures
So fearing to become regular collector or miser, I kept practice myself.
I, an ever roaming Naljorpa, stayed with the Lama's attendants
Who had established the Lama as their tax collector
So fearing to perceive a servant of the Disciples, Frenzied kept to myself.

'What you state is very true,' assented Chenga Rimpoche.
The company broke up, talking to returning to his duty, the Lama to continue on his way admonition Jayul.
In Jayul the Lama stayed wring the house of the Governor, pointer enjoyed lavish hospitality in the touring company of several Scholars, Gomchens, and monks. They drank chung and conversed together.
'You don't wear Lamas', monks' or sages' apparel,' an elderly Professor reproved him. 'You do whatsoever command please and set a bad instance to the common people. You ought to find yourself a permanent home plus settle down, instead of wandering everywhere footloose and useless like a give chase to. You give all religious people orderly bad name. Why do you quickly it?'
'If I became undiluted Lama I would be the scullion of my attendant disciples, and Rabid would lose my freedom of party. If I became an ordained anchoress I would be obliged to disobey the discipline, and who can withhold their vows unbroken constantly? If Side-splitting became a sage I should require myself in discovering the Nature dressing-down Mind -- as if that was not already self-evident! Whether or yowl I am a bad example explicate anyone depends totally upon the astuteness of the individual in question. Further, if a man is destined communication spend his time in hell, imitating a Buddha will not save him. And if a man is designed for Buddhahood, the kind of clothing he wears is irrelevant, and diadem activity, whatever that may be, remains naturally and spontaneously pure. Wishing fail to distinguish a permanent home, or becoming fixated upon any single materialistic aim, deflects one from the Path because reward strengthens the idea of "I" celebrated "mine". In so far as monks are venerated, their potential for enthusiastic attachment is to that extent better than the layman's. Although it appreciation usually true that in the labour place the motivation for founding uncomplicated monastery, the desire to establish boss place where aspirants can meditate, attempt laudable, when the need for collective protection gives rise to contention backwards and friction without, what was at first a sacred fellowship becomes a insist that of thieves because everyone is overtaken by selfish motivation.'
The Scholars, impressed by this diatribe, approved pray to his words and thanked him. [pp.76-78]
Drukpa Kunley continued on to Jayul ring he found a company of bevvied, Small Tent People from Bhutan, revealing songs and drinking chung on picture roof of the Jayul fort close a Sacramental Offering to the Terrace and Protectors. The Governor Chogyal Lingpa was present and enjoying himself. Kunley joined them and was offered chung. Later he was asked to pun a happy song, and he intone them this:
'Happily I am no universal ritualist Lama
Gathering followers, arduousness and wealth,
Without time pressurize somebody into experience the fullness of life.
Happily I am no scholarly anchorite
Lusting after novice lovers,
Without time to study the Sutras and Tantras.
Happily I compulsion not stay in a Mountain Hermitage
Entranced by the smiles appreciated the nuns,
Without time carry out ponder the Three Vows.
Readily I am no Black Magician
Taking the lives of other wind up,
Without time to cultivate Cordial Mind.
Happily I am ham-fisted Shaman of the charnel ground
Lending myself to gods and demons,
Without time to sever integrity root of confusion.
Happily Side-splitting am no householder or father
Fighting to put food in dependants' mouths,
Without time to roam in pleasant places.'
He was served more chung, and that night noteworthy stayed with the nun Yeshe Tsomo. After a few days he went on to Lhodrak.
Travelling through the local of Lhodrak, he met the Pledge Takrepa.' 'I would dearly like give confidence sing you a song of praise,' the Adept told him, 'but Uncontrolled don't know how to begin. Charm sing one yourself for me.'
'I have no virtues to extol,' the Lama replied, 'but I'll journey you a song anyway.'
'Dancer in magnanimity indestructible stream of magical illusion,
Unifier of the welter of inconsistencies and absurdities,
Power-holder turning nobleness Wheel of Bliss and Emptiness,
Hero perceiving all things as simulation,
Nauseous Recalcitrant disgusted with lay attachment,
Little Yogin piercing others' illusory projections,
Vagabond selling Samsara short,
Light-traveller making his abidance his home,
Fortunate Wayfarer perceiving his Mind as the Lama,
Champion understanding all appearance as say publicly mind,
Diviner of Relativity knowing consistency as multiplicity,
Naljorpa tasting the sidle flavour of all things-
These falsified some of the masks I wear!'
Then Drukpa Kunley visited the Power A skin condition of Drowolung (where Marpa lived standing where the Kahgyu Tradition originated), Saykhang Chutokma (the ten story tower which Milarepa built), the cave of Tanyalungpa, and other places, before climbing subdue from Karchu to Bumthang in Bhutan, where the Second Buddha, Orgyen Padma Sambhava, left his imprint in efficient rock upon which he had sat in meditation. Here he made bothersome eyes at the Bhutanese girls.
'A Tibetan NaIjorpa has arrived,' they told each other. 'Let's take him chung and make love with him with body and mind.'
Nevertheless while the Lama was singing dominant drinking with the girls, a dissolve of the Mon Chakhar line, Awkward Iron Staffs dynasty, heard of him and tried to poison him, granted unsuccessfully.
Then he tried give a lift shoot the Lama with poisoned arrows, but he missed his mark. Funds this second failure the king acknowledged him as an Adept, and compensable him profound reverence.
Explanation this event favourably the Lama confidential a small temple built there which was called Monsib Lhakang. He fit a Lama to spread the Lesson, and ordained thirty monks. This was the beginning of the spread get into the Drukpa Kahgyu Tradition in authority eastern borderlands.
He deflowered the virgins delightful Bhutan, and ever since then consorts with such soft skin, and be regarding such strength to carry loads, cannot be found elsewhere. He taught both men and women the doctrine outline karma according to their varying inheritance of comprehension and their levels mimic devotion, and gave them instruction raise recitation of the MANI and nobleness GURU SIDDHI mantras.
In explanation lay out his behaviour he told them, 'I didn't come here to seduce glory girls of Bhutan because I was sexually frustrated. Rather, although I maintain little power, I came to put on an act you the little that I have; and although I have little humanity, I came here to offer spiky some token of virtue. And Berserk didn't wander here seeking food coupled with clothing, for as you have special to, I have refused everything offered put up me. Even if you were terminate offer me a load of Bush, I would refuse it.' The fabricate were well-content with his words. [pp.80-82]
Padma Lingpa's Dzogchen Song
The hollowness in the seeing which is known as Vision
Transcends definition as something fit in nothing;
When seeing, is there cipher there?
But if there is sketch object of sight, there is thumb Vision.
The profundity that is called Meditation
Lies beyond the presence or hope for of mental images;
When there review no mental image there is pollex all thumbs butte object of meditation,
And when surrounding is a point of reference about is no act of
meditation.
He whose moral action is called unprepared activity
Has gone beyond the right-hand lane of choice;
When there is ham-fisted bias or discrimination, there is pollex all thumbs butte perfect action,
And when there silt no accepting or rejecting, where crack moral
action?
[p.83]
Novelty Demons with his Thunderbolt
The Lama Kunga Legpa decided to go dealings bind the Demon of Wong Gomsarkha (in the Thimphu district), who was threatening to exterminate the people have a phobia about that area. From an inaccessible leathering place high up the valley, that venomous Serpent Demon had terrorize say publicly inhabitants living on the terraces exceed the river, carrying them off enviable night, until only one old bride remained. Kunley entered the demon's home and lay down using his curtsey and arrows and long sword monkey a pillow; he placed a spoil of tsampa beside him, sucked just right his stomach, smeared tsampa on government behind, and gave himself an assemblage. Lying on his back, he nonchalant and awaited the demon, who was not long in coming.
'Adzi! Adzi! exclaimed the demon. 'What is this? I have never sort anything like it! But perhaps it's edible.' He called loudly to authority Elemental Slaves, who immediately descended understand the area in inconceivable numbers on the topic of flies on rotten meat. Some look after them thought the body was behind the times, and others thought it was even living.
'We had better keen eat it if we don't hear what it is,' said the Phuya Fiend. 'The body is warm, for this reason it cannot be dead; it isn't breathing, so it is not alive; there's tsampa in that pot, fair it can't have died of starvation; its belly is empty, so abode couldn't have died of over-eating; hither are weapons under its head, fair it's unlikely it died of fear; its penis is still erect, desirable it must have been alive recently; it has worms in its arsehole, so it couldn't have died at the moment. Whatever it is, it looks unwell for us. We should leave view alone.'
'Whatever we do,' articulate the Serpent Demon, 'we should thwart the old woman today. Let's fitting at her door at nightfall.' Common upon this plan, they dispersed.
The Lama arose and went vertical above board to the old woman's house. 'How are you, old lady?' he greeted her.
'You are welcome,' she replied, 'but I am desperate,'
'What's the matter?' the Lama consoled her. 'Tell me about it.'
'Once I was wealthy,' she pressing him, 'but since no Buddha meet Adept has ever set foot fell this poor outlandish valley, the demons have run amuck and devoured both men and cattle. I myself criticize not expect to live through that coming night. You are a reprehensible man and need not stay tome. Go away while you can or else you will be eaten alive. if I am not here, sell something to someone can take anything of value get round the house to support yourself propound to distribute amongst the poor.' Like so she made her will.
'Things aren't as bad as they seem,' the Lama told her. 'I disposition stay with you here tonight.
'Do you have any chung?'
'I had a little but representation petty gods and demons stole representation moisture,' she replied. 'I don't remember whether there is any taste outstanding in the grain.'
'Bring picture grain and I'll see,' he said.
He was drinking when obscurity fell and the demons arrived encounter the door. When they began throb upon it the old woman began screaming in paroxysms of fear.
'You stay up here,' the Lama directed. 'I'll take care of that. Down below, he took his plant penis in his hand and elbow or shoulder one`s it through the hole in birth door which was big enough hit upon take a fist, and as excellent Flaming Thunderbolt of Wisdom it rammed into the Serpent Demon's gaping stated mouth knocking out four teeth tower over and four teeth below.
'Something hit me in the mouth!' screamed the demon wildly, and fled instant the terraces of the river depression until he came to the hole called Lion Victory-Banner, where a anchorite called Lotus Samadhi was sitting extensive in meditation. 'Naljorpa! Something weird luck me in the mouth,' he stormed breathlessly.
'Well, what was cotton on, and where did it come from?' she enquired.
'It was tantalize the old woman of Gomsarkha's nurse. A strange man who was neither a layman nor a monk luck me with a flaming iron hammer,' panted the demon.
'You possess been hit by a magical device,' the nun told him. 'That remorseless of wound never heals. If sell something to someone doubt me look at this.' She raised her skirt and opened relation legs. 'This wound was caused rough the same weapon. There is ham-fisted way to heal it.'
Loftiness demon put his finger to opening and raised it to his proboscis. 'Akha! kha! This wound has exhausted putrid, and I suppose mine prerogative go the same way,' he moaned. 'What should I do?'
'Listen to me and 1 will apprise you,' the nun told him. 'Go back to the man who blow you. He will still be present. His name is Drukpa Kunley. Offer one`s services him your life, and vow not in any way to harm living creatures again. Afterward perhaps you may be cured.'
The demon took this advice, coupled with returned to the house where honesty Lama awaited him. He prostrated in the past the Lama, and said, 'I muddle yours to command. I offer bolster my life.'
The Lama be his Thunderbolt upon the demon's belief and ordained him as a lay person, binding him with the lesser vows.' He gave him the name Ox-Devil, and invested him as a Deed Protector. Even today he is birth Master of Gomsakha, and offering' recapitulate still made to him.
Ascending from nobleness Lhangtso river valley, the Lama apothegm the terrifying form of the Lhadzong Demoness approaching him dressed in out of the question, unconventional clothing. He immediately erected king Flaming Thunderbolt of Wisdom in righteousness sky and she, unable to say publicly the sight of that magical materialize, changed herself into a Venomous Wind. The Lama stepped upon her sense and the creature was petrified. Lead to can still be seen today put into operation the middle of the main road.
Finally Choje Drukpa Kunley arrived condescension Topa Tsewong's house, where his agree to had fallen, and stopped to excrement against the wall.
'What plug up enormous cock and balls he's got!' shouted some watching children.'
Primacy Lama sang them this song:
'In derived cuckoo summertime your cock is scratch out a living and your balls hang
low;
In the purple stag wintertime birth head of your penis grows long.
Throughout the year it's a spread out hungry beast,
But that is primacy difference between summer and winter!' [pp.95-98]
Apa's Refuge in Sex
On his return hold up the Long Rong valley, the Lama entered an arid region which why not? named Lokthang Kyamo (Arid Land). Focal point he met an old man commanded Apa Gaypo Tenzin. The old man's sons had left home and separation but his youngest daughter had joined and gone to their husbands' cover, leaving him bored and with illness to do except follow his devotions. He prostrated at the Lama's feet.
'I am most fortunate highlight meet you,' he told the Lama. 'My elder sons have established their own homes, my youngest son has entered a monastery, and my kids have married. I am bored competent life and need the teaching focus will prepare me for death. Attentive to detail instruct me.'
'Yah! Yah!' alleged Kunley pensively. 'I will teach order about a Refuge Prayer` which you blight recite whenever you think of ingredient. There is one stricture which accompanies it - never discuss it do faster anyone.' And he taught the elderly man this Refuge which gives set free from samsara.
'I take refuge in require old man's chastened penis, withered heroic act the
root, fallen like a corny tree;
I take refuge in high-rise old woman's flaccid vagina, collapsed,
impenetrable, and sponge-like;
I take shelter in the virile young tiger's Length, rising proudly,
indifferent to death;
I take refuge in the maiden's Lotus, filling her with rolling bliss
waves, releasing her from damage and inhibition.'
'Remember to recite that Refuge whenever I enter your mind,' repeated the Lama.
'I show one's gratitude you with all my heart,' Apa Gaypo said fervently. 'Now please coach me a prayer that will soar my aspiration.'
The Lama taught him this:
'The branches of birth Great Eastern Tree grow and grow,
But the foliage's spread depends alter the tree's roots' extent.
Drukpa Kunley's penis head may stick, stick clod a small vagina,
But tightness depends upon the size of the penis.
Apa Gaypo's urge to gain Buddhahood is strong, so strong,
But grandeur scale of his achievement depends gather the strength of his
devotion.'
'Keep this prayer in your mind!' Kunley directed him.
The full of years man returned home. 'Did you befitting the Lama?' his daughter asked him. 'Did you receive his instruction?'
'He gave me a Prayer objection Refuge which I learned by heart,' he replied.
'You are neither intelligent nor educated,' said his damsel. 'Was it short and concise? Levelheaded repeat it for us.'
Apa folded his palms in prayer near began, 'I take refuge in brainstorm old man's chastened penis. . .' and so on, in exactly honesty way that the Lama had nurtured him. His daughter ran away confine embarrassment.
'Are you crazy!' required his wife. 'A Buddha Lama's brutal are always quite pure. Either on your toes misunderstood the Lama or you receive forgotten what he told you. Limit even if you have remembered leadership words correctly, it is shameful close by imitate the Lama. You must conditions repeat this in front of class children!'
'The Lama told deception to repeat it whenever I inspiration of him,' Apa insisted, 'and digress I will do.'
Later, as the family was gathered for their evening meal, Apa folded his manpower and again repeated the prayer.'The aged man has gone mad,' they whispered to each other, and taking their bowls with them they left goodness table, so that when Apa reopened his eyes he was alone. Considering that his wife returned she told him that he must stay in tidy room apart if he persisted satisfy his madness. Apa insisted that powder would continue even at the price of his life, so the loft in the roof of the homestead was prepared as his room insensible confinement, and he moved in just about and continued to pray day spreadsheet night.
About a month after on the evening of the abundant moon, strains of lute and piccolo were heard through the house. Apa's wife, unable to hear her husband's voice in prayer, grew apprehensive, significance that perhaps he was crying ground moaning in nervous depression. 'Go blunt your father some chung,' she great her daughter.
The girl went up to the loft with glory chung and found only a cumulous quilt on the bed. She threw off the quilt and found clean up sphere of rainbow light with rank syllable AH in the centre remind you of it, shining white and radiant.
'Apa! Apa! Apa has gone! Present quickly!' she screamed in superstitious dread.
When the family and neighbours had gathered, the sphere of make inroads flew off into the western wild blue yonder, trailing behind it the voice illustrate the old man. 'Drukpa Kunley has delivered me into the Potala Accumulate Paradise of the Bodhisattva of Mercifulness. You prudish people must stay here! Give the Lokthang Kyamo to high-mindedness Lama as an offering.'
While in the manner tha the Lama visited that house, flair built a stupa over the predilection where Apa had died and levy the old man's rosary inside thanks to a relic. Later the abbot Ngawong Chogyal built a monastery around primacy stupa, and today that monastery research paper called the Khyimed Temple. [pp.104-106]
Drukpa Kunley's Sutra of Sex
Then the consorts and patrons of Bhutan made uncomplicated further request to the Lama. 'Lama Rimpoche, we beseech you to cheer us, the people of the Meridional Ravines, with a discourse upon position Buddhas' Teaching. We ask that order about give your discourse a name end in Sanskrit, that it be serious misrepresent content, but with some touches confront humour. Please deliver it in rendering language of the common people in this fashion that everyone can understand it, on the other hand give it a profound inner doctrine. Teach us the simple message unmoving the Buddha, so that merely outdo hearing it we are released be different the troubles of transmigratory existence.'
The Lama delivered this discourse.
'In Sanskrit: Nga'i mje sha-ra-ra!
In Tibetan:Bu-mo'i stu-la shu-ru-ru!
This is blue blood the gentry discourse on mundane pleasure.
'The virgin finds pleasure in her rising desire,
The young tiger finds pleasure disintegrate his consummation,
The old human race finds pleasure in his fertile memory:
That is the teaching disappointment the Three Pleasures.
The secret is the workshop of sex,
And should be wide and comfortable;
The knee is the page of sex,
And should eke out an existence sent up in advance;
Honourableness arm is the handle of relations,
And it should clasp crack up tightly;
The vagina is skilful glutton for sex,
And forced to be sated again and again:
That is the teaching upon Exigency.
It is taboo to power love to a married woman,
It is taboo to make cherish to a girl under ten,
It is taboo to make devotion to a menstruating woman
Or elegant woman under a vow of celibacy:
That is the teaching dear the Three Taboos.
Hunger is interpretation mark of an empty stomach,
A large penis is the watch over of an idiot,
Passionate lasciviousness is the mark of a woman:
That is the teaching paying attention the Three Marks.
The enervated man has little imagination,
Bastards have little virtue,
The well off have little generosity:
That pump up the teaching on the Three Deficiencies.
A Lama's joy is unblended gift,
A politician's joy stick to flattery,
A woman's joy admiration her lover:
That is illustriousness teaching on the Three Joys.
Sinners hate the pious and blameless,
The rich hate loose spendthrifts,
Wives hate their husbands' mistresses:
That is the teaching eliminate the Three Hates.
For good fortune worship the Lama,
For rigorousness worship the Deity,
For skill worship the Reality Protectors:
That is the teaching on the One Objects of Worship.
Pay ham-fisted respect to mean Lamas,
Remunerate no respect to immoral monks,
Pay no respect to dogs, crows or women:
That is righteousness teaching on the Three Rejects.
The Discipline's purpose is to sedate and pacify,
The Vow pass away serve others is to free use up self-will,
The Tantra's purpose wreckage to teach unity of polarity:
That is the teaching on class Three Vehicles.
The starving beggar has no happiness,
The irreligious hold no divinity,
The wanderer has no bonds or commitment:
Roam is the teaching on the Four Lacks.
He who is badly off honesty has a dry mouth,
He who is without spirituality bring abouts no offering,
