窍诀中的窍诀是什么？

What are the three supreme methods? They are: 1.motivation; 2.actual practice with a mind free of clinging and concepts; 3.dedication.

什么是三殊胜呢？第一是动机殊胜；第二是无缘殊胜；第三是回向殊胜。

1.Motivatio .Normally, purpose should always precede action. Very rarely a good deed or spiritual practice is undertaken without a purpose. If virtuous actions are accompanied with supreme motivations，twice the result can be achieved with half the effort.

第一、动机殊胜。在每次做善事之前，肯定会有目的，没有任何目的的行善、修法是很少的。如果在行善时，具备殊胜的动机，就能起到事半功倍之效；

2. Practice with a mind free of clinging and concepts.It refers to a certain state achieved in practice. Once succeeded in reaching this state, all the good deeds that one does, be it meditation or animal liberation, will naturally become something supremely excellent.

第二、无缘殊胜。是指在修行时所要达到的一种境界。如果能达到这种境界，则无论做任何善事，比如打坐或者放生，都能成为非常殊胜的善行；

3.Dedication.Upon completion of a virtuous deed or spiritual practice, a proper dedication of the merit should be done according to the text. Since very good karma has already been committed during meditation or animal liberation, how to apply this good karma thus becomes a pivotal question. Should it be used to attain liberation, health, longevity or rebirth in the god or human realm? We can choose. In essence, dedication is to make a purposeful choice.

第三、回向殊胜。行善修法结束后，还应当如理如法地回向。在打坐、放生时，就已经成就了很好的善业，将此善业用于何处，是很关键的问题。是用于解脱？还是用于健康长寿？或是用于下一世的人天果报？这是自己可以选择的，这种目的性的选择，就叫回向。

It is imperative that we incorporate the three supreme methods in every good action we undertake. Otherwise, actions may seem impressive and beneficial on the surface, but in fact are less than admirable. Thus, it is most important to fully understand the essentials of the three supreme methods and practice them accordingly.

无论作任何善事，都不能离开这三种殊胜。一旦脱离了这三个关键问题，则不管所做的善事从外表上看有多么的了不起，实际上也是不好的。所以，弄清这三个殊胜并付诸实施至关重要。
