The
Sanskrit word ‘mantra’ means protection of mind. Through reciting the mantras
of Heruka Father and Mother and their retinue with strong faith we can protect
ourself from being harmed by inanimate objects such as earthquakes, floods,
hurricanes and fire, and by animate objects such as humans and non-humans; we
can pacify our sickness, untimely death and other adverse conditions; we can
increase our good fortune, lifespan, and especially our internal qualities of
faith, correct view, correct intention and other spiritual realizations; we are
able to control our delusions such as anger; we can benefit others through
performing various kinds of actions including wrathful actions; and especially
we can lead ourself and others to the supreme happiness of enlightenment. We
recite the following mantras as a request to bestow these attainments upon us,
while recognizing and believing that the wisdom beings of Heruka Father and
Mother and their retinues are inseparable from the imagined Heruka (ourself)
and consort Vajravarahi, and our retinue of Heroes and Heroines.
