English Translation and Summary by Lama Lotuschef.



This yidam has 2 mudras.

One is Touch Ground Mudra - one hand touch the ground and the other holding the Kasaya/Kasava.

The other is Middle finger straightly upright and very close up, this one is same as Phurbha Vajra and also Aksobhya mudra.

Aksobhya is yellow in color.

We now have mudra, mantra and image, can make up a Sadhana.

In Tantrayana, cultivating Yidam yoga,
needs to call to Yidam; call his name or mantra, that is chant mantra;
using visualization to draw his image;
then use mouth to call to him;
and form his mudra; visualize his image as similar to all Buddhas, difference is the color, mudra.

Then form mudra denoting Purity of Body,
Chant mantra denoting Purity of Speech;
and Visualizing him, denotes Purity of Thoughts (Mind).

Achieving Purity of Body, Speech and Mind, you can easily cultivate Yidam Yoga with these mutual responsive feelings.


Therefore in Tantrayan, the Secrets of Cultivation are the Purity of Body, Speech and Mind. 
Employing this method, enabling Aksobhya's to merge with you and this is Combine as One.
Combining as One will result in signs of Yoga, this is also way to yoga with Yidam, Root Guru and also 4 preliminaries.

If you can Yoga with Yidam, then you can decide to go to Buddha's Pureland.
