English version: Entering the stage of Bodhisattva practice. Again, a dhāraṇī is bestowed, which reads: oṃ vajra maṇḍalaṃ pra ve śa ma If this dhāraṇī is recited three times, one will attain the position of all Abhiṣeka (initiation) Maṇḍalas (maṇḍalaṃ, sacred circles). There will be no obstacles in hearing all the secret teachings. Having entered the position of Bodhisattva Abhiṣeka, one is qualified to receive the Chan (Zen) teachings. The above is the complete content of bestowing the un-leaking true Dharma precepts. Furthermore, to protect practitioners, a dhāraṇī is bestowed, which reads: oṃ śū thā śu thā Reciting this ten thousand times will eliminate all obstacles, purify the three karmas of body, speech, and mind, eliminate sins and defilements, and prevent demons and evil influences from disturbing. Just as pure white silk is easily dyed, so it is with practitioners. After sins and obstacles are eliminated, one can quickly attain Samādhi (samādhi, meditative absorption). Furthermore, for the practitioners, a dhāraṇī is bestowed, which reads: oṃ sa rva vi de svā hā The method of recitation is to either recite the two dhāraṇīs mentioned earlier, or to recite one of them at will. They should not be recited simultaneously, for fear that the practitioner's mind will not be focused. Those who wish to enter Samādhi (samādhi, meditative absorption), when first learning, should cut off all external distractions, eliminate all worldly affairs, and sit alone in a quiet place in the half-lotus position. First, one needs to form a mudrā (hand gesture) for protection. Bring together and erect the fingers representing Dāna (generosity/precept) and Prajñā (wisdom/patience), with the fingers representing Śīla (morality/precept) and Kṣānti (patience/vow) crossed with the right hand pressing on the left, placing them on the back. Bring together and erect the fingers representing Vīrya (effort/progress) and Bala (strength/skill), with the tips touching and bent, opening slightly in the center. Bring together and erect the fingers representing Dhyāna (meditation/concentration) and Jñāna (knowledge/wisdom), thus forming the mudrā. After forming this mudrā, first imprint it on the crown of the head, then imprint it on the forehead, then imprint it downwards on the right shoulder, then imprint it on the left shoulder, then imprint it on the heart, then imprint it downwards on the right knee, then imprint it on the left knee, at each place of imprinting, each --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version Chant the preliminary Dharani (Dharani, meaning 'mantra' or 'incantation'). Recite it seven times and apply the blessing to seven places (on the body). Then, after completing the scattering of the Mudrā (Mudrā, meaning 'hand gesture' or 'seal') on the crown of the head, hold the rosary and recite this Dharani. If one can recite it more, two hundred, three hundred, or even three thousand, five thousand times, that is also acceptable. Each time during meditation, completing one Laksha (Laksha, meaning 'one hundred thousand') recitations is the most extraordinary accomplishment. After blessing the body, sit upright and stable, in a half-lotus position with the right foot placed on the left, without needing to form the full lotus position. The full lotus position can often cause pain. If the mind dwells on the sensation of pain, it becomes difficult to attain Samadhi (Samadhi, meaning 'concentration' or 'meditative absorption'). If one has been able to sit in the full lotus position from the beginning, that is the most wonderful. Then, one can keep the head straight and look forward with the eyes level. The eyes should not be opened too wide, nor should they be completely closed. Opening them too wide scatters the mind, while closing them completely leads to drowsiness. Do not dwell on external objects. Just sit stably. Then, one can use the mind to make offerings and repent. First, focus the mind and observe all the Buddhas (Buddha, meaning 'awakened one') in the ten directions, teaching the Dharma (Dharma, meaning 'teachings' or 'law') to the four assemblies (Bhikkhus, Bhikkhunis, Upasakas, Upasikas) in the gathering of humans and devas. Then, visualize oneself, prostrating and praising with reverence and respect through the three karmas of body, speech, and mind before each and every Buddha. When practitioners perform this visualization, they should make it clear and distinct, as if facing them directly. Make it extremely clear and visible. Then, use the mind to offer all the exquisite incense, flowers, banners, canopies, food, treasures, and various offerings throughout the ten directions of the world, in all the heavens and among humans, filling the void and pervading the Dharma Realm, to all the Buddhas, all the great Bodhisattvas (Bodhisattva, meaning 'enlightenment being'), the Dharma Body, Reward Body, and Transformation Body, the teachings, principles, practices, and results, and the assembly of the great gathering. After practitioners make this offering, then use the mind to generate a deep and sincere heart before each and every Buddha and Bodhisattva, revealing and repenting. From beginningless time until today, our minds have been covered by afflictions, and we have long been transmigrating in Samsara (Samsara, meaning 'cyclic existence'). The karmas of body, speech, and mind are difficult to fully recount. Now, I only know to broadly repent. After one repentance, I will forever cut off the continuation and no longer create them. I only wish that all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, with their great compassion, will add their majestic protection and mindfulness, and accept my repentance, so that my karmic obstacles may be quickly eliminated (this is called the inner secret repentance, the most subtle and wonderful). Next, one should make great vows. I have long been in the stream of existence (Samsara), or perhaps in the past, I have practiced the Bodhisattva path, benefiting and bringing happiness to limitless sentient beings. Or I have cultivated Samadhi, diligently practiced, and protected the three karmas of body, speech, and mind. All the merits like the sands of the Ganges River, even up to Buddhahood, I wish that these... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

佛菩萨兴慈愿力。加威护念令我乘斯功德。速与一切三昧门相应。速与一切陀罗尼门相应。速得一切自性清净。如是广发誓愿。令不退失速得成就。   次应学调气。调气者。先想出入息。从自身中一一支节筋脉。亦皆流注。然后从口徐徐而出。又想此气。色白如雪润泽如乳。仍须知其所至远近。还复徐徐从鼻而入。还令遍身中。乃至筋脉悉令周遍。如是出入各令至三。作此调气。令身无患冷热风等悉皆安适。然后学定。输波迦罗三藏曰。汝初学人。多惧起心动念罢息进求而专守无念以为究竟者。即觅增长不可得也。夫念有二种。一者不善念。二者善念。不善妄念。一向须除。善法正念。不令复灭。真正修行者。要先正念增修。后方至于究竟清净。如人学射久习纯熟。更无心想行住恒与定俱。不怕不畏起心。为患亏于进学。   次应修三摩地。所言三摩地者。更无别法。直是一切众生自性清净心。名为大圆镜智。上自诸佛下至蠢动。悉皆同等无有增减。但为无明妄想客尘所覆。是故流转生死不得作佛。行者应当安心静住。莫缘一切诸境。假想一圆明犹如净月。去身四尺。当前对面不高不下。量同一肘圆满具足。其色明朗内外光洁。世无方比。初虽不见久久精研寻当彻见已。即更观察渐引令广。或四尺。如是倍 现代汉语译本:佛菩萨以慈悲的愿力,加以威神护念,使我凭借这些功德,迅速与一切三昧门(Samadhi-mukha,禅定之门)相应,迅速与一切陀罗尼门(Dharani-mukha,总持之门)相应,迅速获得一切自性清净。像这样广泛地发起誓愿,使我不退失,迅速得到成就。 接下来应当学习调气。所谓调气,首先观想出入息,从自身中每一支节筋脉,也都流注着气息。然后从口中缓缓呼出。又观想这气息,颜色白如雪,润泽如乳。仍要知道它所到达的远近。再缓缓地从鼻孔吸入,使它遍布全身,乃至筋脉都周遍。像这样呼出吸入各三次。做这样的调气,使身体没有寒冷、燥热、风等疾病,都安适。然后学习禅定。输波迦罗三藏(Subhakarasimha,善无畏)说:‘你们初学者,大多害怕生起心动念,停止进取而专门守护无念,以为这样就是究竟,那是寻求增长而不可得的。’念有两种,一是恶念,二是善念。不善的妄念,一定要去除。善法的正念,不要让它消失。真正修行的人,要先增修正念,然后才能达到究竟清净。就像人学习射箭,长久练习纯熟,再没有其他想法,行住都与禅定同在。不怕生起心念,把它当作妨碍进学的祸患。 接下来应当修习三摩地(Samadhi,禅定)。所说的三摩地,没有其他特别的方法,就是一切众生自性清净的心,名为大圆镜智(Mahadarsha-jnana,如实反映一切的智慧)。上至诸佛,下至蠢动的生物,都相同平等,没有增减。只是因为无明(Avidya,对事物真相的迷惑)妄想客尘所覆盖,所以流转生死,不能成佛。修行人应当安心静住,不要攀缘一切外境,假想一个圆明的光,犹如清净的月亮,距离身体四尺,在正前方对面,不高不低,大小同一肘,圆满具足。它的颜色明亮,内外光洁,世上没有可以相比的。开始虽然看不见,长久精进研究,不久就能彻底看见。看见后,就进一步观察,逐渐扩大它的范围,或者四尺,像这样倍增。
