May strife subside and harmony prevail! May I, along with the patrons who provide resources and offerings, and all people and wealth, be freed from the bonds to the earth lords, Nyen spirits, and Nagas! May the curses bound to corpses be released! May curses, Bon magic, and their practitioners recoil upon themselves! Due to ignorance and delusion, acts such as cutting sacred trees, excavating land, destroying rock Nyen, building dams, and constructing new houses have been committed. I confess the faults arising from this lack of awareness! Please do not harbor jealousy or malice, but with a mind of benefit, happiness, and Bodhicitta, restore all offenses, conflicts, and transgressions. Protect me and my retinue! Now is the time to return to your respective abodes! In the unborn Dharmadhatu, in the sky, Vajra Mu! (Tibetan: བཛྲ་མཱུ, Sanskrit Devanagari: वज्र मू, Sanskrit Romanization: vajra mū, Literal Chinese Meaning: Vajra Root) I beseech you to come again through the power of compassion! Grant all desired attainments without exception, and increase the activities of benefit and happiness! Thus, place the Naga Torma at a lake or spring, and recite whatever prayers you know, requesting accomplishments. Then recite the auspicious verses: Hrih! (Tibetan: ཧྲཱིཿ, Sanskrit Devanagari: ह्रीः, Sanskrit Romanization: hrīḥ, Literal Chinese Meaning: Hrih) Whose kindness is unparalleled in the world, may the Three Jewels bring auspiciousness! Whose deeds are supreme and unsurpassed, may the Teacher Buddha bring auspiciousness! Whose power, strength, and asceticism are wondrous, may Vajrapani bring auspiciousness! Worthy of worship in the world, protectors of the white side, may the gods, Nagas, and Nyen spirits bring auspiciousness! Who bestows the supreme benefit and happiness upon beings, may the Naga King Endlessly bring auspiciousness! In the places where I and others dwell, may all diseases of people and livestock be pacified, may rain fall in due season, may crops and livestock flourish, may the sacred Dharma increase, bring auspiciousness! Samaya! (Tibetan: ས་མ་ཡཱ, Sanskrit Devanagari: समय, Sanskrit Romanization: samaya, Literal Chinese Meaning: Vow) The Sadhana of Naga King Delightful: Sprout of Benefit and Happiness.
