the king of practice places

Guru Rinpoche said: "The sublime sacred place of Zabbulung is meaningful merely to see, hear about, think of, and touch … just seeing this place increases one’s happiness and virtuous practice. One’s experiences and realization of meditative concentration are enhanced, positive conditions manifest spontaneously, wealth and good fortune increase, and one has numerous devoted celestial attendants."

I, Padma, practiced here, so when beings of the future practice here, they will reach accomplishment... Surrounded by protective foothills and rocky mountains... it is a sacred hidden land... Water, wood, and resources are bountiful; whatever one needs abounds in this supreme sacred place... Awareness is clear and boundless. This is the king of all practice places, and the banner of its renown pervades the ten directions.

If you stay at this supreme sacred place for SEVEN DAYS, you will be inseparable from me, Padma, so you will reach the Realm of Bliss in actuality.

MERITS THROUGH THE SENSES:

1. If you HEAR about the supreme sacred place of Zabbulung, you will be reborn having brought an end to cyclic existence.
2. If you TOUCH the soil, stones, or wood from Zabbulung, you will be released from harm caused by minor elemental spirits.
3. If you LAY EYES on the supreme sacred place of Zabbulung even once, you will perceive the truth of the first bodhisattva level.
4. If you THINK of glorious Zabbulung, the mamos and dakinis will grant their accomplishments.

MERITS OF DURATION:

If you spend THREE DAYS in glorious Zabbulung, you will be liberated from harm caused by subtle elemental spirits. If you stay for FIVE DAYS, psychotic episodes and fits will be dispelled. If you stay for SEVEN DAYS, leprosy and skin infections will be cured. If you stay for NINE DAYS, evil spells will be averted.

If you stay for ELEVEN DAYS, subjugating activities will be accomplished. If you stay for FOURTEEN DAYS, magnetizing activities will be accomplished. If you stay for SEVENTEEN DAYS, enriching activities will be accomplished. If you stay for TWENTY-FOUR DAYS, pacifying activities will be accomplished.

If you stay for an ENTIRE MONTH, as soon as you cast off this body made of the four elements, you will reach buddhahood in the Realm of Bliss (Dewachen). If you stay for a WHOLE YEAR, even if you were able to weigh them on a scale with Mt. Meru, the positive effects would be impossible to measure. Even if you were able to count all the drops in the ocean, the positive effects of staying here would still be impossible to count.
