Preface

This project was compiled in anticipation of two upcoming events. First is the year-long teaching and translation project The King of Tantras: The Generation and Completion Stages of the Guhyasamaja Tantra Based on a Commentary by Aku Sherab Gyatso being given at Instituto Lama Tzong Khapa, Pomania, Italy by Geshe Jampa Gyatso. Secondly, and synchronisticly is the Guhyasamaja Initiation and teachings to be given in 2004 by Denma Locho Rinpoche which were arranged by Kyabje Gelek Rinpoche of Jewel Heart Tibetan Buddhist Center. Not having a grasp of Sanskrit or Tibetan, these materials knowingly contain errors and omissions (e.g., diacritical marks) that are solely reflective of my ignorance and laziness. May this text nevertheless be of some use to others.

Acknowledgments

I am very grateful for the kindness of both Geshe Thubten Samdup of the Sangwa Dupa Institute in Burnaby, BC Canada and Geshe Jampa Gyatso of the Instituto Lama Tzong Khapa, in Pomania, Italy. I am also grateful for the kindness and effort of Joan Nicell and Johanne Jensen. I am most grateful to my teacher Kyabje Gelek Rinpoche for arranging the upcoming Guhyasamaja initiation and teachings and to Denma Locho Rinpoche for bestowing this supreme gift.

Dedication May my venerable Lama’s life be firm, his white divine actions spread in the ten directions, and the torch of Lozang Drakpa’s teachings, dispelling the three world’s beings’ darkness, always remain.

Introduction

According to A-myes, the Guhyasamaja Tantra is the only tantra taught by Shakyamuni Buddha in his lifetime (Wedemeyer, 1999). All subsequent tantras (such as Yamantaka, Chakrasamvara, Hevajra, etc.) were only revealed later, after Buddha’s parinirvana. According to Wedemeyer (1999, p.81) ‘Gos Lotsawa recounts in his text Blue Annals, that the actual transmission of the Arya tradition is as follows: King Indrabhuti of Oddiyana requested and received the teachings from the historical Buddha. The lineage is said to have continued through a dakini that descended from the realm of the Nagas, to King Visukkalpa, and eventually passing on to Saraha and then Nagarjuna, and to his four disciples Sakyamitra, Aryadeva, Nagabodhi, and Candrakirti. There are seven traditions of the Guhyasamaja according to A-myes: Arya, Jnanapada, Santipa, Lalitavajra, Smrti[jnanakirti], a hybrid Kalacakra/Guhyasamaja, and Anandagarbha (Wedemeyer, 1999). The Arya and Jnanapada schools are the most prominent, with the Arya tradition predating the Jnanapada school. Wedemeyer indicates that Nagarjuna, Aryadeva, Nagabodhi, Candrakirti and Sakyamitra represent the former while Nagarjuna, Jnanapada, Dipamkarabhadra, Prasantarnitra, Rahulabhadra, and Vajramahasukha represent the latter. In the Arya tradition, Akshobya is the central deity and the mandala has 32 deities in all. In many of the other traditions the central deity is Manjusrivajra and the mandala may contain as few as 9 deities. The latter form, as typified by the Jnanapada tradition, was said to be revealed by Manjushri (Wedemeyer, 1999). The reader is referred to the works of Wayman (1977) and Wedemeyer (1999) for a more detailed account of the Guhyasamaja literature and history.
