愿见到卑劣者后皈依,发起菩提心,从恶趣中解脱,进入圣者之道。愿我们获得普遍的力量,能够成办无量的众生利益,与如来佛陀的身语意相同。又,愿这些光芒汇聚成一,遍布宝瓶的咒水,仅仅接触就能平息一切损害、不吉祥和不安宁,成为增长吉祥和安乐的甘露净化剂。愿遍布所修之人的身体、眷属和一切用具,消除并平息一切疾病和损害,使身心远离一切过患,变得如金刚般坚硬稳固,成为佛法的容器。此外,愿一切圣者以巧妙的各种方法,包括确定佛法的真如,圆满一切众生的利益。我们以心生起一些对境,口诵一些咒语,也愿成为圣者们证悟各种禅定之门和无量咒语,并被清净加持。念诵三遍,或简略念诵一遍。以三宝的真谛,一切佛菩萨的威力和加持,法界清净且不可思议的力量,以及圣者们坚定誓言的真谛,愿如是成就。如是念诵三遍。第十一,念诵咒语: 观想圣者们赐予并成办事业,如所发愿般显现。 诵读无垢经咒,念诵长短咒语一百零八遍。 最后,一边念诵咒语,一边用宝瓶水为自己和他人沐浴,并饮用。 将咒水洒向四面八方,并念诵: 凡诸住此土, 等等。 第三,结尾分为八个部分: 积资净障发愿,绕供忏悔祈请,送返回向吉祥。 第一,再次积资净障: 居住于十方三世的如来、阿罗汉、正等觉佛陀,以及神圣的佛法和菩提

May we take refuge upon seeing the base ones, generate the mind of enlightenment, be liberated from the lower realms, and enter the path of the noble ones. May we obtain the power to accomplish immeasurable benefit for beings by pervading all, and may we become the same as the Tathagatas in body, speech, and mind. Furthermore, may these rays of light gather into one and pervade the mantra water in the vase, so that by merely touching it, all harm, inauspiciousness, and unease are pacified, and it becomes a nectar purifier that increases glory and well-being. May it pervade the body, retinue, and all the implements of the one to be accomplished, eliminating and pacifying all sickness and harm, freeing the body and mind from all faults, becoming as hard and stable as a vajra, and becoming a vessel of Dharma. Furthermore, may all the noble ones, through various skillful means such as establishing the suchness of the Dharma, accomplish the benefit of all beings without exception. May our generating some objects with the mind and reciting some mantra syllables also be blessed by the noble ones, realizing various doors of samadhi and infinite syllables, and being completely purified. Recite three times, or if abbreviated, recite once. By the truth of the Three Jewels, the power and blessings of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the power of the Dharma realm being completely pure and inconceivable, and the truth of the steadfast vows of the noble ones, may it be so. Recite this three times. Eleventh, reciting the mantra: Contemplate that the noble ones grant and accomplish the activities, manifesting as wished for. Read the stainless mantra sutra, and recite the long and short mantras one hundred and eight times each. Finally, while reciting the mantra, bathe oneself and others with the vase water and drink it. Sprinkle the mantra water in all directions, and recite: "Whoever has gathered here," etc. Third, the conclusion is divided into eight parts: Accumulation, purification, aspiration, circumambulation and offering, confession and supplication, sending back, dedication, and auspiciousness. First, accumulating and purifying again: The Tathagatas, Arhats, perfectly complete Buddhas residing in the ten directions and three times, as well as the sacred Dharma and Bodhi

I respectfully prostrate to all the supreme jewels, together with the Bodhisattvas, Shravakas, and Pratyekabuddha Sanghas! I respectfully prostrate to all the stupas, body relics, and remains in the ten directions! I respectfully prostrate to all the holy Dharma protectors who abide in the manner of the world and beyond the world! To all those noble assemblies, I offer and worship water for offering and washing, incense and flowers, food and lamps, music and cymbals, umbrellas and banners, and whatever else is actually available. With all the unclaimed divine substances and abundant human resources in the ten directions, and with all the offering clouds arising from the aspirations of Samantabhadra's conduct, generated by the power of dharanis and mantras and the power of faith, I fill and offer them extensively throughout the Dharma realm that pervades the endless expanse of the sky. From beginningless time, in all lifetimes wandering in samsara, I thoroughly confess all sins and non-virtuous deeds, in short, doing what should not be done, doing what should be done, and not doing what should be done, and all actual sins. I rejoice in all the merits of all the virtuous deeds of the Buddhas and beings of the three times. I urge all the victorious ones of the ten directions to turn the supreme wheel of Dharma. I request all the lights of the world who wish to show the manner of passing into nirvana not to pass into nirvana, but to act for the benefit of the world and to remain for a long time. By this merit, may all see the state of omniscience. Etc., and may all sentient beings have happiness! Etc., reciting each verse. The second part is: Thus, having properly built the Dharma body stupa, and through the power of the great merit of accumulation and purification, may all the Buddhas, the Bhagavat, of the ten directions perfectly accomplish the benefit of themselves and others, and may their intentions be spontaneously fulfilled. May all the mandalas of the palaces be covered by the expanding clouds of Samantabhadra's offerings. May the holy Dharma flourish in all worlds through all kinds of means.

May we abide long in happiness! May all Bodhisattvas, Pratyekabuddhas, and Shravakas each perfect their liberation and swiftly attain the state of omniscience! May all protectors of the sacred Dharma fulfill their vast vows, and may their power, strength, and glory increase greatly, and may they realize the state of Buddhahood! May all the deities and protectors who benefit us and our retinue be free from any faults of body and mind, and may they possess the fullness of glory and qualities! May all limitless sentient beings purify the two obscurations along with their habitual tendencies. May all suffering and harm be pacified. May all virtuous qualities be perfected, and may they swiftly attain the state of complete omniscience, the Buddhahood! Through this merit, may all sentient beings, including myself, by the power of whatever roots of virtue have been accumulated since beginningless time in samsara, by the truth of the Three Jewels, by the blessings of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and by offering and reciting the profound and vast Mahayana sutras and dharanis, by the merit of properly constructing stupas of the Dharmakaya, and by the power of the pure realm of Dharma, may all the benefits spoken of in the sutras and dharanis be immediately obtained, perfected, and manifested by myself and the patrons! May all sentient beings, including myself, from beginningless samsara, through karma, afflictions, and the obscurations of ripening, etc., be completely freed from all sinful actions such as being born in the three lower realms and the eight unfavorable conditions, or falling away from the mind of enlightenment and virtuous paths, and may they be completely pacified and purified! May all diseases, short lives, harms, non-virtue, inauspiciousness, evil, and enumerations of sins, which arise from past karma and present conditions, be pacified and never occur again! May we be liberated from the harm of evil spirits and obstacles, and may they possess loving-kindness, and from now on, may they not generate harmful thoughts towards anyone! May we have long lives and be free from illness, may our wealth be abundant, and may all our wishes be fulfilled as desired!

愿成就寂止等世间和出世间的一切荣耀!愿生生世世都具备圆满菩提资粮的身、受用、眷属、善知识!愿恒常遇到大乘佛法,并通过闻思修现证其义!愿能恒常亲近、欢喜不谬宣说正法的善知识,不贪执资具,具备善巧方便和无碍智慧力,从而毫不费力地将一切伟大的菩萨行持纳入修行!愿迅速获得圆满福德和智慧资粮的不坏身,即佛陀薄伽梵的伟大果位,从而救度一切众生脱离轮回之海,并将他们安置于不住涅槃之界!第三,绕塔之初,念诵:那嘛 呐哇呐哇谛囊 达塔嘎达 冈嘎囊地 哇噜嘎囊 郭地尼 佑达 夏达 萨哈斯啦囊 嗡 沃沃日 匝日尼匝日 摩日郭日匝啦哇日 梭哈。以及:那摩 巴嘎瓦帝 惹那给都 啦匝雅 达塔嘎达雅 阿哈爹 桑雅桑布达雅 达地雅塔 嗡 惹内惹内 玛哈惹内 惹那 威匝耶 梭哈。这两个咒语七遍或三遍。然后,念诵长短两种无垢经,如果不会,则念诵心咒短咒,同时绕塔一百零八圈。最后,如果能够且乐意,则应诵读绕塔的偈颂和《显明胜利》的偈颂,但像次数之类的可能难以做到。因此: 无论何等智者, 以极喜悦之心, 于诸佛之佛塔, 移步缓行绕转, 赡部洲之黄金, 衡量之标准量, 纵有百万千俱胝, 亦不能及彼功德。 念诵《缘起咒》即可。第四,以“供品无垢极清净, 种类繁多极广大, 各自威德极广大, 适悦安乐作供养。”供养并演奏音乐。第五,祈请圣众大集会垂念。今日迎请圣众,为我等众生利益而

May all the glories of the world and beyond, such as tranquility, be accomplished! May all lifetimes be endowed with a body, resources, retinue, and virtuous friends that perfectly complete the accumulation of enlightenment! May we always encounter the Mahayana Dharma and realize its meaning through hearing, thinking, and meditating! May we always associate with and please the virtuous spiritual friends who unerringly teach the sacred Dharma, be unattached to possessions, possess skillful means and unobstructed power of wisdom, and thus easily bring all the great practices of Bodhisattvas into our practice! May we quickly attain the great state of the Bhagavan Buddha, the indestructible body that perfectly completes the accumulation of merit and wisdom, and thus liberate all sentient beings from the ocean of existence and establish them in the realm of non-abiding Nirvana! Third, at the beginning of circumambulation, recite: namaḥ navanavatīnāṃ tathāgatagaṃgānandi bālukānāṃ koṭinīyutaśatasahasrāṇāṃ oṃ bobori carini cari mori gori cala vāri svāhā. And: namo bhagavate ratnaketurājāya tathāgatāya arhate samyaksaṃbuddhāya tadyathā oṃ ratne ratne mahāratne ratnabijaye svāhā. Recite these two mantras seven or three times. Then, recite both the long and short versions of the Immaculate Dharani, or if you do not know them, recite the essence short dharani while circumambulating one hundred and eight times. Finally, if you are able and willing, you should recite the verses for circumambulating stupas and the verses of "Manifest Victory," but it may be difficult to do so like the number of times. Therefore: Whatever wise person, With a very joyful heart, At the stupas of all Buddhas, Moves slowly in circumambulation, The gold of Jambudvipa, The standard measure of measurement, Even if there are millions of trillions, It is not equal to that merit. Recite the "Dependent Arising Mantra" (ye dharmā hetuprabhavā...) is sufficient. Fourth, with "Offerings immaculate, utterly pure, Various kinds, vast and all-encompassing, Each with its own great power, Appropriately arranged for bliss, I offer," make offerings and play music. Fifth, request the noble assembly to pay attention. Today, inviting the noble ones, for the benefit of beings such as myself,
