"The Guru paused, reflecting for a while, and then he said:'It is as though the long-life practice were the captain, and Kila the protective escort. For this reason, whatever work one does in the Secret Mantra, it is important first to practice Kila so as to dispel obstacles. Moreover, Kila is your yidam deity; consequently you may practice it. But whether you do Kila or the long-life practice, you have need of a companion. Go therefore to Uru in Tibet where there is a boy of fourteen years. His father's name is Lhapel, his mother's Chokroza. He is of the clan of Lang. Make him your companion in the practice and together you will accomplish the yidam.'
"Following these instructions, I discovered the boy and returned to the Guru. The Master said: This boy, a knowledge-holder of Kilaya,
Will attain the vajra-life.
He will not be defeated easily—
A hero, demon-taming, predicted by the deity,
Possessing the great strength and power of lions!
Let his name be Lhalung Pelgyi Senge,
Lion of Glory whom the Deity Foretold!
"He then introduced the boy to the mandala of the Secret Mantra and brought him to maturity."Afterwards, Lhalung Pelgyi Senge, Namkhai Nyingpo of Lhodrak, Ma Rinchen Chok, myself Yeshe Tsogyal, and Dudjom Dorje, the five principal spiritual offspring of the Guru, met together, along with others, to practice the sadhana of Kila."

Practice
金刚橛的重要
"The Guru paused, reflecting for a while, and then he said:'It is as though the long-life practice were the captain, and Kila the protective escort.
「上师停下来仔细考虑了一番,接着说:『打个譬喻,长寿法门像是统帅,金刚橛则是护卫。
For this reason, whatever work one does in the Secret Mantra, it is important first to practice Kila so as to dispel obstacles.
因此,无论要在密乘内修什么,一开始就修金刚橛来驱除障难是极为重要的。
指点修行伴侣
Moreover, Kila is your yidam deity; consequently you may practice it. But whether you do Kila or the long-life practice, you have need of a companion.
此外,金刚橛是妳的襌修本尊,因此妳是可以修行金刚橛的,但不管妳是修金刚撅还是长寿法,妳都需要伴侣。
Go therefore to Uru in Tibet where there is a boy of fourteen years.
因此前往藏地的鄢如,那里有一名十四岁的男孩,
His father's name is Lhapel, his mother's Chokroza. He is of the clan of Lang. Make him your companion in the practice and together you will accomplish the yidam.'
父亲的名字是拉培,母亲的名字是确洛杂,他是朗氏,一族的人。将他作为妳修行的伴侣-你们将会一起成就本尊。』
觅得并授记
"Following these instructions, I discovered the boy and returned to the Guru. The Master said: This boy, a knowledge-holder of Kilaya,
Will attain the vajra-life.
He will not be defeated easily—
A hero, demon-taming, predicted by the deity,
Possessing the great strength and power of lions!
Let his name be Lhalung Pelgyi Senge,
Lion of Glory whom the Deity Foretold!
我依循这些指示,觅得这个男孩,回到上师处。上师说:
此儿金刚橛持明,
能证金刚生命力-
非为轻易所击败,
本尊授记伏魔勇,
具备狮子大威力!
拉龙•佩吉•森给名,
本尊授记光荥狮!
修习金刚橛
"He then introduced the boy to the mandala of the Secret Mantra and brought him to maturity."Afterwards, Lhalung Pelgyi Senge, Namkhai Nyingpo of Lhodrak, Ma Rinchen Chok, myself Yeshe Tsogyal, and Dudjom Dorje, the five principal spiritual offspring of the Guru, met together, along with others, to practice the sadhana of Kila."
Sadhana ['sɑ:dənə]:成就法(印度教与佛教密宗用语,指人召请本尊,与其融为一体,并将其并入自身之法)
「接着,上师引导男孩进入密法坛城,使他成熟。于是拉龙•佩吉•森给、洛札的南开•宁波、 玛 •仁千. 秋、伊喜•措嘉我自己和敦珠 •多杰等五位上师的主要弟子聚在一起,还有一些其他的人,一同修习金刚撅仪轨。」
