English version: ‘Today, reciting and upholding the Great Vehicle's Ocean of Merits, because of this cause, one sees the Buddhas of the ten directions and the Stupa of Prabhutaratna (Many Treasures Buddha). Now, I will bear witness for you. You should speak of your own faults and repent all your sins.’ ‘At that time, the practitioner, having heard these words, again joined his palms, prostrated himself with his five limbs touching the ground, and said: ‘The Perfectly Enlightened World Honored One (Buddha's title) now bears witness for me, the Vaipulya Sutras (Mahayana Sutras) are the masters of compassion. I only wish that you would observe me and listen to what I say. From many kalpas (eons) until this life, my ear faculty, due to hearing sounds, has been deluded and attached, like glue sticking to grass. Upon hearing evil sounds, I generate the poison of afflictions, being deluded and attached everywhere without pause. Because of this auditory opening, my consciousness is wearied, causing me to fall into the three evil realms. Now I begin to realize this, and I confess and repent to all the World Honored Ones.’ ‘Having repented, he saw Prabhutaratna Buddha (Past Buddha) emit great light, the light being golden, illuminating the east and the boundless Buddhas of the ten directions, their bodies being of true gold. In the eastern sky, a voice proclaimed: ‘This Buddha World Honored One is named Good Virtue.’ There were also countless emanation Buddhas sitting in the lotus position on lion thrones under jeweled trees. These World Honored Ones all entered the Samadhi of Universally Manifesting Bodies (a state of meditation), and they all praised, saying: ‘Excellent, excellent! Good man! You are now reciting the Great Vehicle Sutras, and what you recite is the realm of the Buddha.’ ‘Having spoken these words, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra (Great Vehicle Bodhisattva) further explained the method of repentance: ‘In countless kalpas of your past lives, because of your greed for fragrances, you discriminated among various consciousnesses, being attached everywhere, and thus fell into the cycle of birth and death. You should now contemplate the cause of the Great Vehicle. The cause of the Great Vehicle is the true nature of all dharmas (all phenomena).’ Having heard these words, the practitioner prostrated himself with his five limbs touching the ground and repented again. ‘Having repented, one should say: ‘Namo Shakyamuni Buddha (Present Buddha)! Namo Stupa of Prabhutaratna! Namo the emanation Buddhas of Shakyamuni Buddha in the ten directions!’ Having said these words, one should bow to the Buddhas of the ten directions, Namo Good Virtue Buddha of the east and the emanation Buddhas. As far as the eye can see, one should bow with all one's heart, offering incense and flowers. Having completed the offerings, one should kneel on the right knee, join the palms, and praise the Buddhas with various verses. Having praised,’ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

已，说十恶业忏悔诸罪。既忏悔已，而作是言：‘我于先世无量劫时贪香、味、触，造作众恶，以是因缘，无量世来恒受地狱、饿鬼、畜生、边地邪见、诸不善身。如此恶业今日发露，归向诸佛正法之王，说罪忏悔。’ “既忏悔已，身心不懈，复更诵读大乘经典。大乘力故，空中有声，告言：‘法子！汝今应当向十方佛赞说大乘，于诸佛前自说己过。诸佛如来是汝慈父，汝当自说舌根所作不善恶业。此舌根者，动恶业相，妄言、绮语、恶口、两舌、诽谤、妄语、赞叹、邪见、说无益语，如是众多诸杂恶业；构斗坏乱、法说非法……如是众罪，今悉忏悔诸世雄前。’ “作是语已，五体投地遍礼十方佛，合掌长跪，当作是语：‘此舌过患无量无边，诸恶业刺从舌根出，断正法轮从此舌起。如此恶舌断功德种，于非义中多端强说、赞叹邪见如火益薪，犹如猛火伤害众生、如饮毒者无疮疣死。如此罪报恶邪不善，当堕恶道百劫、千劫，以妄语故堕大地狱。我今归向南方诸佛，发露黑恶。’ “作是念时，空中有声：‘南方有佛名栴檀德，彼佛亦有无量分身，一切诸佛皆说大乘除灭罪恶。’ “‘如此众罪，今向十方无量诸佛大悲世尊发露黑恶，诚心忏悔。’说是语已，五体投地复礼诸佛。是时， 现代汉语译本：然后，（修行者）应当忏悔由十种恶业所造的各种罪过。忏悔完毕后，应当这样说：‘我在过去无量劫中，贪著香、味、触等，造作了种种恶业。因为这些因缘，我无量世以来一直遭受地狱、饿鬼、畜生、边地邪见等各种不善的果报。今天，我将这些恶业全部揭露出来，归向诸佛正法之王，忏悔我的罪过。’ 忏悔完毕后，应当身心不懈怠，继续诵读大乘经典。因为大乘的力量，空中会传来声音，告诉（修行者）：‘法子！你现在应当向十方诸佛赞叹大乘，在诸佛面前坦白自己的过错。诸佛如来是你的慈父，你应当坦白由舌根所造作的不善恶业。这舌根，会引发各种恶业，如妄语、绮语、恶口、两舌、诽谤、妄语、赞叹、邪见、说无益的话，以及其他各种杂恶业；挑拨离间、破坏和合、将正法说成非法……这些罪过，现在我都在诸世雄（佛）面前忏悔。’ 说完这些话后，应当五体投地，遍礼十方诸佛，合掌长跪，这样说：‘这舌根的过患无量无边，各种恶业的毒刺都从舌根生出，断绝正法轮也从这舌根开始。这恶舌断绝了功德的种子，在不义的事情上多方强辩，赞叹邪见如同火上浇油，犹如猛火伤害众生，如同饮毒者无疮疣而死。这样的罪报，恶邪不善，应当堕入恶道百劫、千劫，因为妄语的缘故堕入大地狱。我现在归向南方诸佛，揭露我的黑暗罪恶。’ 当这样想的时候，空中会传来声音：‘南方有佛，名为栴檀德（旃檀功德佛），这位佛也有无量分身，一切诸佛都宣说大乘，以消除罪恶。’ ‘这些罪过，我现在向十方无量诸佛大悲世尊揭露我的黑暗罪恶，真心忏悔。’说完这些话后，五体投地再次礼拜诸佛。这时，

English version: Then, (the practitioner) should confess all the sins committed through the ten evil karmas. After confessing, one should say: ‘In countless past kalpas, I have been greedy for scents, tastes, and touches, creating various evil deeds. Because of these causes, I have been constantly suffering in hells, as hungry ghosts, as animals, in border regions with wrong views, and in various unwholesome bodies for countless lifetimes. Today, I reveal all these evil karmas, turn towards the Buddhas, the kings of the true Dharma, and confess my sins.’ After confessing, one should not be lax in body and mind, and continue to recite the Mahayana scriptures. Because of the power of the Mahayana, a voice will come from the sky, telling (the practitioner): ‘Dharma son! You should now praise the Mahayana to the Buddhas of the ten directions, and confess your own faults before the Buddhas. The Tathagatas are your compassionate fathers, you should confess the unwholesome evil deeds committed by your tongue. This tongue can cause various evil karmas, such as false speech, embellished speech, harsh speech, divisive speech, slander, lying, praise, wrong views, speaking useless words, and other various mixed evil karmas; causing discord, destroying harmony, and saying that the true Dharma is not the Dharma... These sins, I now confess before all the World Honored Ones (Buddhas).’ After saying these words, one should prostrate with five limbs touching the ground, pay homage to the Buddhas of the ten directions, join palms, kneel for a long time, and say: ‘The faults of this tongue are boundless and limitless, the thorns of various evil karmas come from the tongue, and the cutting off of the true Dharma wheel also starts from this tongue. This evil tongue cuts off the seeds of merit, argues strongly in unrighteous matters, and praises wrong views like adding fuel to a fire, like a raging fire harming sentient beings, like a person who drinks poison dies without sores. Such sinful retribution, evil and unwholesome, should lead to falling into evil paths for hundreds and thousands of kalpas, and falling into the great hell because of false speech. I now turn towards the Buddhas of the South, revealing my dark sins.’ When thinking like this, a voice will come from the sky: ‘In the South, there is a Buddha named Chandana Deva (Candana Virtue Buddha), this Buddha also has countless emanations, and all Buddhas preach the Mahayana to eliminate sins.’ ‘These sins, I now reveal my dark sins to the immeasurable Buddhas, the compassionate World Honored Ones of the ten directions, and sincerely confess. ’ After saying these words, one should prostrate again to the Buddhas with five limbs touching the ground.

诸佛复放光明照行者身，令其身心自然欢喜，发大慈悲普念一切。 “尔时，诸佛广为行者说大慈悲及喜舍法，亦教爱语、修六和敬。尔时，行者闻此教敕心大欢喜，复更诵习终不懈息。 “空中复有微妙音声出如是言：‘汝今应当身心忏悔。身者，杀、盗、淫；心者，念诸不善、造十恶业及五无间，犹如猿猴、亦如黐胶处处贪着，遍至一切六情根中。此六根业，枝条、华、叶悉满三界二十五有一切生处，亦能增长无明、老、死……十二苦事，八邪、八难无不经中。汝今应当忏悔如是恶不善业。’ “尔时，行者闻此语已，问空中声：‘我今何处行忏悔法？’ “时空中声即说是语：‘释迦牟尼名毗卢遮那，遍一切处；其佛住处名常寂光，常波罗蜜所摄成处、我波罗蜜所安立处、净波罗蜜灭有相处、乐波罗蜜不住身心相处。不见有无诸法相处，如寂解脱，乃至般若波罗蜜，是色常住法故。如是，应当观十方佛。’ “时十方佛各伸右手摩行者头，作如是言：‘善哉善哉！善男子！汝诵读大乘经故，十方诸佛说忏悔法。菩萨所行，不断结使、不住使海。观心无心，从颠倒想起，如此想心从妄想起；如空中风无依止处。如是法相，不生、不灭。何者是罪？何者是福？我心自空，罪福无主。 现代汉语译本 诸佛再次放出光明照耀修行者的身体，使他们的身心自然欢喜，生起广大的慈悲心，普遍关怀一切众生。 这时，诸佛广泛地为修行者宣说大慈悲以及喜舍的法门，也教导他们要说爱语、修习六和敬。这时，修行者听到这些教诲，心中非常欢喜，又更加勤奋地诵习，从不懈怠。 空中再次发出微妙的声音，这样说道：‘你现在应当身心忏悔。身体方面，是杀生、偷盗、邪淫；心意方面，是念头不善、造作十恶业以及五无间罪，就像猿猴一样，又像黏胶一样处处贪着，遍及一切六根之中。这六根所造的业，枝条、花、叶都遍布三界二十五有的一切生处，也能增长无明、老、死……十二种苦事，八邪、八难没有不经历的。你现在应当忏悔这些恶不善的业。’ 这时，修行者听到这些话后，问空中的声音：‘我现在应当在何处进行忏悔呢？’ 这时，空中的声音就说：‘释迦牟尼（Sakyamuni）佛，名为毗卢遮那（Vairocana），遍布一切处；他的住处名为常寂光（Eternal Tranquility Light），是常波罗蜜（Eternal Paramita）所摄持成就之处、我波罗蜜（Self Paramita）所安立之处、净波罗蜜（Purity Paramita）灭除有相之处、乐波罗蜜（Bliss Paramita）不住身心相之处。在那里，看不见有无诸法的相状，如同寂静解脱，乃至般若波罗蜜（Prajna Paramita），因为色是常住的法。应当这样观想十方诸佛。’ 这时，十方诸佛各自伸出右手摩修行者的头顶，这样说道：‘善哉善哉！善男子！你因为诵读大乘经典，所以十方诸佛为你宣说忏悔之法。菩萨所修行的，是不间断烦恼结缚，不住于烦恼的海洋。观心无心，是从颠倒妄想生起，如此想心是从虚妄分别生起；就像空中的风没有依止之处。这样的法相，不生不灭。什么是罪？什么是福？我的心本来是空性的，罪和福都没有主宰。’
