Buddhaguhya’s<\/span><\/span> Introduction to the Meaning of the Tantra and its commentary by the master Padmavajra describe how to achieve many different types of feats in considerable detail. These include achieving clairvoyance, love, compassion, the altruistic intention to become enlightened, and so forth. In Yoga Tantra there is also the achievement of an actual body that is a special type of form having the marks of a Buddha’s body; this seems to be like the mental body achieved through the path of the Perfection Vehicle. The process is to generate yourself as the deity and then imagine that all of space is filled with similar small Buddha bodies, which are brightened with the exhalation of breath and drawn into your heart with the inhalation of breath, like butter melting into sand. <\/span><\/p>\n

By contemplating this again and again, capacity is gradually achieved, whereby eventually your body turns into a Bodhisattva Knowledge-Mantra Bearer who has a similitude of the form of a Buddha.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
