In Japanese
Mantrayana, the practice of Fudo Myoo/Acalanatha is related to Trilokivijaya Samaya
Mandala (降三世三昧耶会) or
Vajradhatu Mandala (金刚界). The mudra for this mandala is ‘Rin’ (临).
The Trilokivijaya
Samaya Mandala represents the immovable heart (不动心) of Trilokivijaya Vidyadhara (降三世明王). Hence the training of this
mandala enables a person to be freed from all seductions and thus achieves
his/her aim. It also opens up one’s Moolandhara Chakra.
Before one
proceeds to this practice, one should already be practising the Kujikiri (九字结) for some time already. Otherwise the
effect of Fudo Myoo ritual would not be noticeable.
There are 3
steps to this exercise:
Step 1:
Perform
gesture 1 as shown and recite mantra: “om vajra sattva ah” (3x). One should
visualize he/she is filled with life force of the universe and thus becomes
Vajrasattva.
Step 2:
Perform
gesture 2, 3, 4 and making the mudra of ‘Rin’. Now recites mantra: “namah
samantah vajra nam” (3x). One should then imagine he/she becomes the Fudo Myoo sited in the unmovable throne. Nothing can move Fudo Myoo.
Step 3:
Perform
gesture 5 and recite mantra: “om vajra sattva ah namah samantah vajra nam ham”
(3x) then draw the fast kujikiri pattern. Now one should visualize he/she is
the unmovable sattva, he shall not be seduced by any matters. He/she is moving
on the path of truth with fierce and unsurpassed wisdom.
The above 3
steps should be performed repeatedly several times daily.

ReplyDeleteHowever im just a little cautious now as to randomly jump into anything "Acala" related :)

Glad you like it... This is the traditional yamabushi/ninja's Mantrayana mind training method. There are a total 9 steps and this is only step one.
