Terma of Tulku Karma Lingpa.
a na dza sha matriarch wa zha matriarch rga rmavajra guru deva dakini hum
I do homage to a Lama, a Yidam, as well as a Dakini.
The Dakini Yeshe Tsogyal spoke:
I, Yeshe Tsogyal, who am a small woman, carrying made an charity of a vast mandala, outer, inner, as well as tip to my Guru, now make this request. O Master Padmasambhava, please grant to us, you who have been a people of Tibet, your constant support as well as good in this benefaction hold up as well as in all destiny lives. There has never been before, nor will there be in a destiny a boon as good as you. you have no disbelief which even I, who am a small woman, shall be given your sadhana which is itself similar to pure as well as precious nectar.
I see which there will come a time in a apart destiny when human beings will retain fickle intellects as well as ever changing opinions. They will be really excitable, impatient, as well as excessively prone to violence. They will adhere to heretical views regarding a Holy Dharma. In particular, they will slander as well as slur a Doctrine of a Supremely Secret Mantras. At which time, for all sentient beings, a 3 good evils of disease, poverty, as well as warfare with terrifying weapons will greatly increase.In particular, there will come a time of distressing suffering for Tibet as well as a Tibetan people when troubles will spread with good devastation opposite a 3 regions of China, Tibet, as well as Central Asia; only similar to when a nest of ants is broken as well as a ants swarm out. You, O Guru, have admitted most skillful means for curing these ills. Nevertheless, for a people of those destiny times there will be conjunction time nor event for a use of sadhana. Only a really few people will even! have a desire to practice. On each hand, disturbances as well as distractions will be awfully clever as well as powerful. Human beings will be incompetent to determine in between themselves. Even a materials required for puja as well as a preparations for sadhana use will be incomplete. In such immorality times, it will be intensely formidable to turn aside or reverse those trends. In such times as those, O Guru, if a single should rest solely upon your sadhana which is a Vajra Guru Mantra, what good as well as value shall come from this? For a consequence of those destiny beings with defective intellects, who have been devoid of deep righteous understanding, please discuss it us.
Then a Great Master spoke:
O loyal daughter, what you have pronounced is really true. Nevertheless, in such destiny periods as those, it is still sure which from use there shall come onward benefits both evident as well as idealisation for all sentient beings. you shall disguise a eighteen kinds of Termas; such as earth treasures, H2O treasures, rock treasures, sky treasures as well as so on, which will contain large numbers of sadhanas as well as tip teachings. In those immorality times, a skillful methods of those who retain good kismet as well as a portentous fluke of events [rten brel grig] have been awfully formidable to accomplish. Such times have been characterized by a depletion of whatever consequence sentient beings might possess.
Nevertheless, if during such places as a twenty 4 Great Places of Pilgrimage, or in a temples as well as villages, or upon a rise of a good mountain, or upon a seaside of a good river, or in a uplands as well as lowlands which have been inhabited by gods, demons, as well as ghosts, should anyone who possesses a tip vows as well as mantras, or monks possessing a vows of a Sangha, or even a layman of righteous conviction or a woman of good character, carrying intensely cultivated a intention to achieve Enlightenment; should any of them be means to repeat a hint of a Vajra Guru Mantra a singl! e hundre d times or a single thousand times or 10 thousand or a single hundred thousand or a single million or a single hundred million times or as most times as possible, a resulting appetite as well as benefits shall be inconceivable to a human mind. Moreover, in all a directions of space, disease, poverty, warfare, antagonistic armies, civil strife, famine, dire prophecies as well as sick omens, all these evils shall be averted. In each direction, a good happening of full of health cattle, abundant crops, as well as sleet in a season shall come. In ones benefaction life, in all destiny lives as well as in a narrow, formidable passage of a Bardo, to a higher chairman you shall be well known in my real presence, to a middle chairman you shall crop up as a vision, as well as to a defective chairman you shall speak to him in his dreams. In addition, it is sure which they shall, carrying perfected progressively a paths as well as stages, enter a land of Camaradvipa as vidyadharas both male as well as female.
If a single though repeats a mantra uninterruptedly a single hundred times a day, he will come in to a thoughts of others appearing in a favorable fashion. There will facilely come to him abundant food, wealth, as well as good fortune. If a single repeats a mantra as most as a single thousand times or 10 thousand times as well as so on, he shall good carry out over a minds of others as well as it is sure which he shall achieve appetite as well as blessing. If a single repeats a mantra a single hundred thousand or 10 million times or more, he will accumulate all a appetite of a Three Worlds as well as good carry out over a 3 Realms of Existence. Gods as well as demons shall turn his servants as well as he shall achieve though any snag whatsoever a 4 enchanting rites. He is afterwards means to immeasurably support all sentient beings as most as he desires. If a single is means to equate as most as thirty million or seventy million recitations, afterwards all a Buddhas of a 3 times of past, present, as well as ! destiny shall regularly be with him. Indeed, he shall be matching with me. All a gods, rakshasas, as well as fierce towering deities shall promise to attend to his commands as well as obey them, accomplishing whatever he entrusts to them.
The higher chairman will achieve in this really hold up a Rainbow Body. The middle chairman will upon a occasion of a Chikhai Bardo comprehend a transparent light of self-illumination [od-gsal]. Even a defective person, once carrying seen my face in a Bardo, will be delivered from a arising of appearances [that normally crop up there], as well as carrying been reborn in Camaradvipa, he shall give infinite support to all sentient beings.
The Dakini Yeshe Tsogyal further requested:
O Great Master, you thank you for such a good boon of vast as well as infinite appetite as well as benefit. However, for a consequence of destiny sentient beings, please expound briefly in sutra fashion, upon a im- measurable appetite as well as good of a explanation upon a cryptic syllables of a Mantra of Guru Padma.

It is an extract of a larger work, a Shog-ser, belonging to a Terma detected by a good Terton Karma Lingpa. This master is also obliged for discovery of a famous Bardo Thosgrol, or Tibetan Book of a Dead. He is remarkable, in which his initial discoveries occurred when he was though fifteen years of age.
