33. Obeisance
Amoghasiddhi Submissive
Paying homage to the Primordials is a propitious responsibility. Amoghasiddhi is submissive to Vairochana’s divine and Dharmatic Rule. Respect and allegiance to the Dark Principle latent within the soul is a lost art. Recover that art now and know the Buddhagnosis that is reserved for those few Noble Ones who have made their abode in the Sugatagarbha. Disengaging from all superfluous tasks and doing the one necessary thing is the beginning of Noble Wisdom. The one necessary thing is turning-about from all defiled garbha and laying your burden down at the feet of the Tathagatas.
Noble Obeisance to higher agencies assures that all of one’s efforts are never done in vain but rather a tilling the celestial soil in preparation for auspicious revelations to come. Remain steadfast and true and faithfully allow the Shining Ones to lead you safely and propitiously to the other shore.
