[[Image: Chimé_Soktik.jpg |thumb|350px|Chime Soktik]] '''Chimé Soktik''' ([[Wyl.]] ''chi med srog thig'') ‘The Practice of the Immortal Life Essence, The Essential Bindhu of Deathlessness’ is a [[long-life practice]] focused on [[Amitayus]] and his consort [[Tsendali]]. It was discovered by Zilnön Namkha Dorje in 1904, and has became through [[Dudjom Rinpoche]], its prophesied lineage holder, the main long life practice within the [[Dudjom Tersar]] lineage. ==Content== The Chime Soktik cycle include many texts and practices, and among them are the following: Those written by Zilnön Namkha Dorje: *a daily sadhana, which is a condensed version of the practice *an extensive version of the sadhana<Ref>Not yet translated in English.</Ref>. Those written by Karmapa [[Khakhyap Dorje]]: *’The Billowing Clouds of Blessings’, a lineage prayer *an [[empowerment]] manual *a very short fulfillment recitation (Wyl. ''skong ba'') *a [[Dharma Protectors]] practice *supplementary texts (Wyl. ''Zur ‘debs'') Those written by Dudjom Rinpoche: *an empowerment manual *a commentary on the practice (Wyl. ''bsnyen yig'') *a main ritual manual (Wyl. ''sgrub khog'') used for [[drupchen]] *two fulfillment recitations (Wyl. ''skong ba'') *an elixir offering (Wyl. ''sman mchod'') *supplementary texts (Wyl. ''Zur ‘debs'') ==The Purpose== According to [[Shenphen Dawa Rinpoche]]: :Through the teaching on the Chime Soktik, we come to understand that increasing life really means increasing the opportunities to attain enlightenment and be of the greatest benefit to all beings, which can manifest as a longer and more prosperous life. As life is precious to every sentient being, the teachings on the Chime Soktik explain the nature of long life and how to extend life for positive karmic benefit. It is of paramount importance that every practitioner learns to extend his or her life in order to reach enlightenment and benefit others. It is important to understand the preciousness of this human life and not to take it for granted. [source?] According to [[Gyatrul Rinpoche]]: :The [[Maratika cave|Maratika]] long life practice cave is a power spot in Nepal. Over the centuries, many, many practitioners have gone there to do the long life practice. It is a very difficult journey to embark on if you are not able to trek in the Himalayas for several days. But even today, many pilgrims go there. Dudjom Rinpoche himself went to the Maritika long life practice cave in a helicopter. He stayed only there for three hours [to practise the Chime Soktik], but later said that these three hours had extended his life for ten years.' [source?] ==Revelation and Propagation of the Terma== ===Guru Rinpoche receiving the practice directly from Amitayus, in Nepal=== According to Gyatrul Rinpoche: :The Chime Soktik originated at the time of [[Guru Rinpoche]] who traveled to Nepal with his Indian consort, [[Mandarava]], in order to accomplish immortality. They went to the cave way up in the mountains in Nepal, in the famous long life cave of Maritika. There, in the cave, they practised for three years the Chime Soktik. After three years, they achieved immortality, passing beyond death. The practice is so very, very profound. While Guru Rinpoche and Mandarava were in the cave practising, Buddha [[Amitayus]], the Buddha of Long Life, actually came and gave the empowerment, transmissions, and teachings to them directly. The directness of his presence was just like pouring water from a full vase into an empty one. It was not a dream. After three years of retreat, practising the long life methods in the cave, the two of them, Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava) and Mandarava his consort, both achieved the state of Buddha Amitayus: immortality. They passed out of the round of cyclic existence through the force of the practice to become fully enlightened. :After this Guru Rinpoche traveled to Tibet, taking with him the scripture of the teachings that had been given to him by Amitayus. In Tibet he then decided to bury the teachings as a terma, and prophesized the time of its revelation, and the details surrounding that revelation. He gave the full transmissions to two of his main disciples, who were two of the original [[twenty-five disciples]]. One of them was [[Vairotsana]], and the other [[Nanam Dorje Dudjom]]. Afterwards, the termas were concealed physically as well as within the minds of the disciples.<Ref>Source: Gyatrul Rinpoche, teaching on “Chime Soktik ‘The Abbreviated Practice of the Immortal Life Essence, The Essential Bindhu of Deathlessness’”, translated by Sangye Khandro, Los Angeles, May, 1985.</Ref> ===Revelation by Zilnön Namkha Dorje in Bhutan=== According to Gyatrul Rinpoche: :Later on, at the end of the 19th century, these two disciples, Vairotsana and Nanam Dorje Dudjom reincarnated in the form of one lama, '''Zilnön Namkha Dorje''' (born c. 1868), who was a great [[tertön]]. Zilnön Namkha Dorje went to Bhutan to the practice cave of [[Yeshe Tsogyal]] where he found this [[sater]] by pulling it out from behind a rock in the cave. This was not done in secrecy, but rather as a public treasure. This means that it was revealed in the presence of many hundreds of people. All the people came to witness the revelation, at which time rainbows appeared in the sky, the sound of roaring dragons reverberated throughout space along with countless other wonders.<Ref>Op. cit.</Ref> ===Spread of the practice by Karmapa Namkha Dorje in Tibet=== Another main prophesized lineage holder of the Chime Soktik was Karmapa Khakhyap Dorje, who received the transmission from Zilnön Namkai Dorje around 1910’s, and who wrote a number of texts on the practice (see above). ===Transmission to Dudjom Rinpoche, the terma’s owner=== According to Gyatrul Rinpoche<Ref>Op. cit. </Ref>: :Since its discovery at the end of the 19th century up to 1924, Zilnön Namkai Dorje kept the terma secret for many years, as was stated in the prophecy of the terma. In it was stated that the practice was meant to be revealed for the first time only to the terma's ''[[chödak]]'', who was Dudjom Rinpoche, and only during this chödak's twenty-first year, which was 1924. :As prophesized, in 1924, Zilnön Namkai Dorje bestowed upon Dudjom Rinpoche all the empowerments, transmissions, and teachings on the Chime Soktik and entrusted him to propagate and empower these teachings. Dudjom Rinpoche said<Ref>[[Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal]], Light of Fearless Indestructible Wisdom: The Life and Legacy of H. H. Dudjom Rinpoche, Snow Lion 2008. </Ref>: :On an impulse, I went to see Zilnön Namkha Dorje, and he received me with a joyful face. After a while he said, "I am old now, and I do not know how long I have to live, but seeing you, I know that I will be able to pass the terma I hold yo their rightful heir". He predicted future events and gave me detailed advice. He said, "My terma teaching predicted you, and you will be of great benefit to the Nyingma tradition." Then I requested, "Please, would you transcribe the activity sections of the Vajrakilaya teachings from the yellow scrolls you have discovered?" He replied, "We will see about that, but understand that I now have transfered my terma teachings to you, and it's up to you to decide what you will do with them". According to Gyatrul Rinpoche<Ref>Source: Gyatrul Rinpoche, teaching on “Chime Soktik ‘The Abbreviated Practice of the Immortal Life Essence, The Essential Bindhu of Deathlessness’”, translated by Sangye Khandro, Los Angeles, May, 1985.</Ref>: :Then, Dudjom Rinpoche kept the practice secret for many years, in particular from the majority of laymen or ordinary people. The Chime Soktik was transmitted only occasionally to lamas and strong practitioners so as to insure the purity and profundity of the blessings. :During the latest part of his life, Dudjom Rinpoche began to give the transmission of the Chime Soktik more openly, and many of his students practised the Chime Soktik in order to secure health and long life for Dudjom Rinpoche himself. ===Becoming the central long-life practice within the Dudjom Tersar lineage=== Since the passing of Dudjom Rinpoche, many main Dudjom Tersar lineage holders have taught intensively on the Chime Soktik. Shenphen Dawa Rinpoche, one of Dudjom Rinpoche’ sons, has been doing this in his centers in the USA, and [[Gyatrul Rinpoche]] has done the same. Oral stories recount that [[Sangyum Rigzin Wangmo]] has many times instructed Gyatrul Rinpoche to do strict closed retreats focused on the Chime Soktik in order to prolong his own life. Today, the Chime Soktik have become the main long life practice for the followers of the Dudjom Tersar lineage, but its empowerment is still a rare transmission to receive. ==Notes== <small><references/></small> ==Further Reading== *The Daily Practice of Accomplishing The Life Essence of Immortality Called 'The Quintessence of Deathlessness', also known as Chime Soktik, Vimala Texts *Gyatrul Rinpoche, teaching on “Chime Soktik ‘The Abbreviated Practice of the Immortal Life Essence, The Essential Bindhu of Deathlessness’”, translated by Sanghe Khandro, Los Angeles, May, 1985 *Shenphen Dawa Rinpoche, ‘Mind and Medicine’, Los Angeles, California , September 17, 1988 *Cathy Cantwell and Robert Mayer, The Creation and Transmission of a Textual Corpus in the Twentieth Century: The 'Chi med srog thig’, Indus Verlag - München, 2010 [[Category:Termas]] [[Category:Long Life Practices]] [[Category:Sadhanas]] [[Category:Dudjom Tersar]]
