Part 4 - The instruction about defilement by mind-made meditation

Therefore, as for the phenomena of incidental obscurations or obscurations of the nature:

Within the pure and utterly spotless nature of mind,
Artificial defilements never will be seen.
Here why should we practice development and perfection?
In meditative purity, defilements are exhausted.

By looking for complexities of developing and perfecting within the primordial spontaneous presence of the nature, the essence without accepting and rejecting will not be seen. Pass the pass into the self-completed great perfection. The All-Creating King says:

For students who rejoice in reckoning characteristics,
Counting mantras is taught and developing mandalas,
For those who have put their hopes upon the path to trikaya.

Those who produce understanding by means of heaping up concepts,
For the length of time of a hundred million kalpas
Will never know the sense of the undeveloped mandala.

Kye! For me the teacher, the King, the doer of all,
By accumulations and mandalas, being self-perfected,
The nature of dharmata has no need of creation.

As being the nature with neither wish nor development,
Know the mandala of the King, the doer of all.

Similarly within the nature there are also no path, meditation, and so forth. The same text says:

As for Bodhicitta, it is like the sky.
Within this nature of dharmas and mind that is like the sky,
There is no view or meditation or guarding samaya.

Wisdom is unobscured, buddha activity effortless.
There is no treading the path, no cultivating the bhumis.
There are no subtle dharmas and no non-dual connection.

For mind there are no precepts, and nothing to be resolved.
Since this is beyond both exaggeration and denigration,
There is no passing the pass into reality.

This is Bodhicitta, the view of the great perfection. The Dohakosha says:

Free from meditation, what is there to wish for?
How will that which is inexpressible be explained?
By the mudra of samsara all beings have been seduced.
Who has not defiled the nature of things as they are?

The continuous has no mantra, no goal or meditation.
All of these are causes of confusing one’s own mind.
Mind’s natural purity is unstained by meditation.
Its nature exists as bliss. Do not manufacture torment.

The All-Creating King says:

That which is primal, undistracted, and unlost
Is completely undistracted, with the tether of samadhi.

But undistracted samadhi can be the deceiver hope,
Within the provisional teachings of the Mahayana,

When it is presented in terms of cause and effect.
That which is primal, undistracted, and unlost

Is the naturally resting nature, apart from cause and effect.
This is the antidote to establishment and effort.
