Multiple earthquakes will shake the ground. Provocations and elemental spirits from the east, wild men, predatory animals, and barbarians from the south, poisonous commerce of warfare from the west, and Hor, Mongols, and Turks from the north- all these will spread! Countless bolts of lightning as well as hailstones and meteorites will descend from the vast sky. The majority will die as medicine will prove ineffective. Many multifarious maladies will steam forth from the mouths of the people of Hor and Mongolia. Suffering and pestilence will blanket Drak, Long, and Nyang. There will be many mad dogs and crazed people in the lands of Jar, Dak, and Nyal. In the region of Dokham, destructive wildfires will burn alive tens of thousands of sentient beings, causing to wander the scorched earth. Kailash, lightning and hail will destroy the region of Ngari, earthquakes will destroy the borderlands of Tibet and China, heretical doctrines will multiply in Nepal, and samaya-breakers, māras, and elemental spirits will overrun Ü and Tsang. Such is the ripening of negative karma for beings without refuge!Īs a sign of the ripening of such karma for beings devoid of a protection, there will also be these outer, inner, and secret bad omens: sudden avalanches will occur on Mt.

What a surging wave of misery!Īlthough it might be possible to escape to the sixteen greater and lesser hidden lands, due to the power of negative karma, very few will escape.

At that time, sentient beings will have no opportunities for happiness, and the Turkish armies will invade every direction. I established all beings in happiness.Įven still, forty eons in the future, famine and poverty will arise from desire, proliferating war will arise from hatred, different forms of pestilence will arise from delusion, and various torments will arise from the three poisons in equal measure.

In Chāmara, the country of the rākṣasa demons, I led the red-faced to the Dharma. It is a prediction text (lung bstan) about the future degenerate times and purportedly the first guidebook to the hidden land of Pemokö.Į MA HO! One such as I, the Lake-Born Padmasambhava, meandered throughout India like a river for 3028 and stayed in the region of Ü in central Tibet for 111 years. The Guidebook to the Hidden Land of Pemokö is a revealed treasure text (gter ma), included in the Könchok Chidü. The Guidebook to the Hidden Land of Pemokö
