Thi- Tibetan syllable HUNG

The point of focus is the chakra of the heart, inside of which the black, luminous, syllable HUNG is visualized. It faces forward just as the body does. Merge with the syllable so that everything is the black HUNG. Become the black HUNG. Let the mind rest lightly in the black HUNG, and fall asleep.

The quality being developed here is power You do not have to do anything; do not puff up to "try" to feel powerful. This is about finding the power you already have inside. The sense of power is also one of security; dreams generated in this part of the practice have to do with this sense of secure power. The examples in the Mother Tantra are dreams in which a powerful dakini directs the dreamer to sit on a throne, or the dreamer goes into a secure castle to receive teachings, or the dreamer is given approval by his or her father or mother. The quality is what is important, not the specific imagery. Instead of a dakini seating the dreamer on a throne, it may be the boss giving the dreamer a promotion, or the dreamer's mother organizing a party to celebrate the dreamer's accomplishments. Both dreams would be characteristic of this part of the practice. Rather than a castle, the dream may take place in a situation that makes the dreamer feel secure, and instead of a parent there may be another person in the dream who confers a sense of security, safety, and strength.

DEVELOPING FEARLESSNESS

The fourth part of the practice is the easiest because there is no need to wake again until morning. There is no particular position to take; just make yourself comfortable. There is no prescribed breathing; the breath is left in its natural

rhythm. Traditionally this is two hours after the last waking, just before the light of dawn.

The "secret chakra" is the point of focus, the chakra behind the genitals. Inside the chakra is a sphere of black, luminous light: a black tigle. This is the darker aspect of the imagination; the teaching says that dreams generated here are likely to contain wrathful dakinis, fire on the mountain and in the valleys, torrential rivers, or winds that destroy everything in their path. These are dreams in which the elements destroy the image of the self; the dreams can be terrifying. Discover if this is true for you. The quality of dreams in this section of the night should eventually become wrathful.

In this part of the practice, enter the black, luminous tigle in the secret chakra and become it. Then let your mind relax and just lightly focus on the luminous black light that is everywhere, that pervades your senses and mind, and allow yourself to sleep.

The four qualities - peaceful, accomplishing, powerful, and wrathful - are very broad bands of associated images, feelings, emotions, and experiences. As stated above, it is not necessarily true that you will have the specific kinds of dreams presented as examples in the teachings.
