Buddhist-Meditation-Systematic-and-Practical

Fourthly, there is the Guru of the Dharmakaya, which is
the wisdom of non-guru. This guru is not a personality,
but out from it I have obtained many teachings. Our yogi
got up from his seat and went to a glass-fronted cupboard
which was packed with books. Taking out a good pile of
books, he brought them for us to see. In all there were
twenty-two volumes, each page covered with closely
written Chinese characters. They are examples of what
the Tibetans call "Mind-Treasure," (Dutun) that is newly
discovered spiritual instructions. They contain teachings
on a wide variety of subjects among which may be
mentioned, Mudra, Yantra, exercises for opening Cakras,
Nadis, etc., and sometimes practices are given for
maintaining bodily health, as well as Charms. These
latter ones, Mr. Chen says, he has never imparted to
others.
Our yogi then told us about two of the teachings received
in this way. The first concerned the initiation into
meditation of the goddess Ekajata which he had received
but without being given the necessary mudra. This was
not described in any text, but was perceived by him in
meditation. He then demonstrated it to Bhadanta
Sangharaksita who was also empowered to practice this
sadhana. The other mudra he showed on this occasion is
one of great use in modern travel, known as the White
Umbrella sign associated with the guardian deity
Sitatapatra Aparajita. It has been used successfully by Mr.
Chen to ensure safe air passage.
