Chapter Four: The Prayer Requested by Namkh Nyingpo

Then the bhiku Namkh Nyingpo made his request:

O great master! Please, I implore you, teach me a prayer to the lineage masters, one which allows all appearances
to be perceived clearly as deities, male and female, all sounds to be heard as the speech of the yidam deity, and any
