Protectors

we do our deity yoga first, manifest as our yidam

and then command the protectors to protect us

from that point of view

they are part of our spiritual Sangha, expressions of Buddha activity

they are our spiritual immune system

commanding the elements and the miracles,

commanding the orders of angels and the protectors

commanding from my God self

from the place of union and inseparability

I must activate the bellows to be in my body

difficult when in ordinary non-ceremonial life

but necessary if I am to be in Presence in every moment
