Those belonging to the retinue, living on leftovers, are oppressed by others. "Not being in harmony with each other" means that they are mutually resentful. "Being harmed by the decrease of wealth" means that the possessions of oneself and others are diminished. "Sorrow, toil, and harm" means that the mind is uneasy. "Toil" means that one's own body is extremely afflicted. "Harm" means that due to those two causes, the images of flesh-eaters, etc., appear in dreams. Among "fear and poverty," "fear" means that one's hair stands on end for no reason. Or it refers to the king's punishment, etc. "Poverty" means that because the omen of the decline of wealth has appeared, one's own mind is filled with doubt. Among "planets and curses," "planets" refers to the harm from the sun, etc. "Stars" refers to the harm from the Pleiades, etc. "Curses" refers to the curses of sages, etc. "Being afflicted by unpleasant spirits" means being seized by powerful and malevolent beings such as rakshasas. "Arising from sorrow and toil" means arising from the torment of body and mind. "Even seeing evil in dreams" is also a supplementary explanation for abandoning those evils through this method. Thus it is proclaimed that if one properly and truly practices the rituals mentioned above and those that will appear below, then even if harm such as the impairment of the senses of beings has already occurred, one will surely be liberated. That is its meaning. If someone asks whether it is necessary to first listen to that sutra that demonstrates such benefits, the answer is: of course it is necessary, because it is a limb of entering the mandala. Therefore, in order to first explain the method of listening to this sutra, it is said, "By this, thoroughly cleanse," etc. "By this" refers to the one who wishes to enter the mandala. "Thoroughly cleanse" means to cleanse the face, etc., and apply fragrant substances such as incense. "One should listen to the excellent sutra" means that one should listen to and recite this dharani, which possesses boundless benefits. Among these, some

如果有人这样想,没有进入坛城就宣讲续部,会有过失吗?不是的。要知道,仅仅是阐述经文本身是没有过失的。如果有人认为那样也有过错,那么一切都会变成那样。其他地方也有详细的解释。现在进入正文。其中,对于“凡是心善且具信者”, “凡是”指的是任何一个。“心善”指的是具有不害之心的。“心和信”指的是具有信心。或者,前者指的是具有两种信心,后者指的是具有最初的信心。 “以洁净的衣服严饰”指的是穿着杜古拉布等未被提及的衣服。对于“甚深佛陀行境”, “甚深”指的是无法通过其他词语和意义来理解。“佛陀行境”指的是唯有如来才能证悟的境界。 “如果听闻此经”指的是如果听闻和读诵如视珍宝般的此经。 这表明,想要舍弃上述不顺之品的人,应当具备这样的行为准则,这是为了能够忆持此陀罗尼等。如果这样听闻,会有什么利益呢?为了说明还能获得其他利益,所以有了“以此经的威光”等。 “一切有情”指的是为了所有需要帮助的有情。 “也能消除难忍的疾病”指的是消除没有天花,以及黑痣等非常丑陋且难以去除的大病。 “看到所有这些都平息”指的是要知道,这些都会消失并痊愈。 “寿命和福德将会增长”指的是在此生中。 “从一切罪业中解脱”指的是在其他世中。 这表明,如果仅仅听闻就能产生这样的利益,那么进入坛城并进行修持,又何必多说呢?这是这样认为的。 这样阐述了听闻的利益之后,为了阐述修持之主要支分——宝瓶仪轨。

If someone thinks that explaining the tantra without entering the mandala is a fault, it is not. It should be known that there is no fault in merely explaining the text itself. If someone thinks that there is a fault in that as well, then everything will become like that. There are also detailed explanations elsewhere. Now, let's enter the main text. Among "whoever is virtuous in mind and has faith," "whoever" refers to anyone. "Virtuous in mind" refers to having a mind free from harm. "Mind and faith" refers to having faith. Alternatively, the former refers to having two kinds of faith, and the latter refers to having the initial faith. "Adorned with clean clothes" refers to wearing clothes such as Dugula cloth that have not been mentioned. Regarding "profound Buddha's realm of activity," "profound" refers to that which cannot be understood by other words and meanings. "Buddha's realm of activity" refers to the realm that only the Tathagatas can realize. "If one listens to this sutra" means if one listens to and recites this sutra as if it were a precious jewel. This indicates that a person who wants to abandon the aforementioned unfavorable aspects should have such conduct, which is for the purpose of being able to remember this dharani and so on. If one listens in this way, what benefits will there be? In order to explain that other benefits can also be obtained, there is "by the glory of this sutra" and so on. "All sentient beings" refers to all sentient beings who need help. "Also eliminates unbearable diseases" refers to eliminating major diseases such as those without smallpox, and black moles, which are very ugly and difficult to remove. "Seeing all these pacified" means to know that these will all disappear and be healed. "Life and merit will increase" refers to in this life. "Liberated from all sins" refers to in other lives. This indicates that if merely listening can produce such benefits, then what need is there to mention entering the mandala and practicing? This is how it is thought. Having explained the benefits of listening in this way, it is in order to explain the main part of the practice, the vase ritual.
