The Buddha said to the venerable Śāriputra (one of the Buddha's chief disciples, known for his wisdom) and all the bhikṣus, ‘Listen attentively with one-pointed minds!’ The Buddha said to the venerable Śāriputra, ‘To the east, beyond a distance of one Ganges river of sands (an immeasurable quantity), there is a Buddha named Anivartana-samādhi-pūrṇa-rāja-tathāgata (King Tathāgata of Complete Non-Regression Samadhi), a Tathāgata (one of the titles of a Buddha), an Arhat (worthy one), an Anāsrava (free from outflows), a Samyak-saṃbuddha (perfectly enlightened one), who is now teaching the Dharma. His world is called Manoratha-pūraṇa-vyūha (Abode of Fulfilling Wishes).’ ‘Beyond that, at a distance of two Ganges rivers of sands, there is a Buddha named Nīla-vaiḍūrya-pūrṇa-rāja-tathāgata (King Tathāgata of Complete Blue Lapis Lazuli), an Anāsrava, a Samyak-saṃbuddha, who is now teaching the Dharma.

“去是八恒沙,有佛名解散一切缚具足王如来、无所著、最正觉,今现在说法,其世界名曰一切解脱。”   佛告贤者舍利弗:“此诸佛如来、无所著、过四道不受、最正觉,其国土清净,无五浊、无爱欲、无意垢。若有善男子、善女人,闻此八佛及国土名,受持奉行讽诵,广为他人解说其义者,终不愚痴,口之所言,无有失误,相好具足,无所缺减,无央数年不为乏少。   “是人终不堕太山地狱、饿鬼、畜生中也,是人终不望取罗汉、辟支佛道而般泥洹,必当逮得无上平等之道,常遇陀邻尼,常行菩萨道,得功德无量。   “第一四天王常拥护之,不为县官所拘录,不为盗贼所中伤,不为天龙、鬼神所触娆,阅叉鬼神、蛊道鬼神、若人、若非人,皆不能害杀得其便也,除其宿命不请。   “若有疾病、水火、乌鸣、恶梦、诸魔所娆,恐怖衣毛竖时,常当读是八吉祥神咒经咒之,即得除愈。”   是时,佛说偈言: “若有持是经,  八佛国土名,  不堕三恶处,  疾得无上道。  自觉发道意,  见佛即开解,  中外常欢喜,  供养心恭敬。  亿劫阿僧祇,  行恶悉消除,  持是八吉祥,  速得明解教。  供事是经者,  千叶华中生,  珍宝为其出, 现代汉语译本 ‘过去有八个恒河沙数(形容极多的数量)的世界,其中有佛名为解散一切缚具足王如来(能解脱一切束缚,具足一切功德的如来)、无所著(没有任何执着的)、最正觉(达到最高觉悟的),现在正在说法,其世界名为一切解脱。’ 佛告诉贤者舍利弗:‘这些佛如来、无所著、超越四道(指欲界、色界、无色界和非想非非想处)不受轮回、最正觉,他们的国土清净,没有五浊(指劫浊、见浊、烦恼浊、众生浊、命浊)、没有爱欲、没有意垢(指内心的污垢)。如果有善男子、善女人,听到这八位佛和他们国土的名字,受持奉行、讽诵,并广泛为他人解释其含义,最终不会愚痴,口中所说的话不会有失误,相貌美好,没有缺失,无量数年都不会匮乏。’ ‘这个人最终不会堕入太山地狱、饿鬼、畜生道中,这个人最终不会期望获得罗汉、辟支佛道而进入涅槃,必定会获得无上平等之道,常常遇到陀邻尼(总持,指能总摄忆持一切法义的禅定力),常常修行菩萨道,获得无量的功德。’ ‘第一四天王(指四大天王)常常拥护他,不会被官府拘捕,不会被盗贼伤害,不会被天龙、鬼神所侵扰,阅叉鬼神(指夜叉)、蛊道鬼神,无论是人还是非人,都不能伤害他,除非是宿命的因果。’ ‘如果遇到疾病、水火灾难、听到乌鸦鸣叫、做恶梦、被各种魔所侵扰,感到恐惧毛发竖立时,应当常常读诵这八吉祥神咒经咒,就能立即消除痊愈。’ 这时,佛说偈语: ‘如果有人持诵此经, 八佛国土之名, 不堕三恶道之处, 迅速获得无上道。 自觉发起菩提心, 见佛即能开悟理解, 内外常常欢喜, 供养之心恭敬。 亿劫阿僧祇(指极长的时间), 所行恶业皆消除, 持诵这八吉祥, 迅速明了佛陀教诲。 供奉此经之人, 将生于千叶莲花中, 珍宝自然涌现,’

English version 'Going past eight Ganges sands (an expression for an extremely large number) of worlds, there were Buddhas named Dissolving All Bonds King Tathagata (the Tathagata who can liberate all bonds and possesses all merits), the Unattached One, the Most Righteously Enlightened One, who are now teaching the Dharma, and their worlds are named All Liberation.' The Buddha told the worthy Shariputra: 'These Buddhas, the Tathagatas, the Unattached Ones, who have transcended the four realms (referring to the desire realm, form realm, formless realm, and neither perception nor non-perception realm), are not subject to rebirth, and are the Most Righteously Enlightened Ones, their lands are pure, without the five turbidities (referring to the turbidity of the kalpa, views, afflictions, beings, and life), without desires, and without mental defilements. If there are good men or good women who hear the names of these eight Buddhas and their lands, accept, uphold, recite, and widely explain their meanings to others, they will ultimately not be foolish, their words will not be mistaken, their appearances will be beautiful, without any deficiencies, and they will not lack anything for countless years.' 'These people will ultimately not fall into the Tai Mountain hell, the realm of hungry ghosts, or the animal realm. These people will ultimately not seek to attain the path of Arhats or Pratyekabuddhas and enter Nirvana, but will surely attain the unsurpassed path of equality, will often encounter Dharanis (mantras that encapsulate and retain all Dharma teachings), will often practice the Bodhisattva path, and will obtain immeasurable merits.' 'The first Four Heavenly Kings (referring to the Four Great Heavenly Kings) will always protect them, they will not be arrested by officials, they will not be harmed by thieves, they will not be disturbed by dragons, gods, or ghosts. Yaksha ghosts (referring to night demons), Gu-poison ghosts, whether human or non-human, will not be able to harm them, except for the karmic consequences of their past lives.' 'If they encounter illness, fire or water disasters, hear the cries of crows, have nightmares, or are disturbed by various demons, and feel fear with their hair standing on end, they should always recite this Eight Auspicious Divine Mantra Sutra, and they will immediately be cured and healed.' At that time, the Buddha spoke in verses: 'If one upholds this sutra, The names of the eight Buddhas' lands, They will not fall into the three evil realms, And will quickly attain the unsurpassed path. Consciously generating the Bodhi mind, Upon seeing the Buddha, they will understand, Inside and out, they will always be joyful, And offer with respectful hearts. For countless eons, All evil deeds will be eliminated, Upholding these eight auspicious ones, They will quickly understand the Buddha's teachings. Those who serve this sutra, Will be born in a thousand-petaled lotus, And treasures will naturally appear,' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------   色像好无上。  人闻是尊经,  尊敬信乐者,  奉持讽诵读,  清净无放逸。  女人信是经,  敬慎无谀谄。  弃女为男子,  聪明常黠慧,  奉持八佛名,  出入贼不害。  刀兵水火毒,  诸邪不能干,  爱乐奉是经,  诸魔不得便。  鬼神诸官属,  无能娆乱者,  飞行到诸刹,  所在大丰乐。  心意正无邪,  见佛大欢喜,  所生常遇佛,  等心奉事之。  一切众恶除,  疾得泥洹道,  精进无懈怠,  去离诸缘着。  为人朴直儒,  奉持八佛名,  勇猛降众魔,  其力如金刚。  端正相好具,  一切莫能当,  布施无悭贪,  巨亿万家生。  盗贼及怨家,  自然皆消除,  疾病县官事,  乌鸣诸恶梦,  持是八佛名,  咒之即除愈。  奉持是经者,  弥勒菩萨等,  第一四天王,  常共拥护之。  所愿皆可得,  踊跃大欢喜,  一心信乐者,  福德亦如是。”
