The Spontaneous Vajra Song of Fulfilment and Confession, from the Heart-Essence of the Vast Expanse, translated by Adam Pearcey (with reference to the commentary by Muksang Tulku Pema Kunzang Rangdrol and with the kind assistance of Alak Zenkar Rinpoche), 2019. - Colophon: When I, the bhusuku Khyentse Özer, was alone, engaged in the heart practice in the Flower Cave, the ḍākinīs’ assembly hall, at Omin Palgyi Chimphu, at the first rising of the moon in the Iron Dragon year, on the day of the festival that commemorates King Udrāyaṇa of Roruka inviting our teacher and reverentially offering him gifts, through the favourable condition of performing the heart-practice, combined with the pure auspicious connection of the location, while pure wisdom arose as the essence of awareness, coded signs burst forth from the secret treasury of the vast expanse of realization, appearing in the form of letters. Easy and convenient to practise, complete with all the points of profundity, this is a means to purify all impairments, breakages, misdeeds and obscurations, and to restore commitments; it has the power to dispel sudden misfortune and inauspiciousness, to fulfil wishes and aspirations, and to bring about accomplishment. Therefore, my followers should adopt this upadeśa. It is entrusted to the powerful guardians of Nyingtik. Conceal it from the unfortunate who hold wrong views. Athaṃ. Gya.
