English version The Buddhas do not eat, nor do I eat. I am capable of doing all the things that the Buddhas do. Why? Because within this there are eight mothers and eight kinds of sovereignty. The Buddhas always speak of these eight kinds of sovereignty. I am born from this, and there is no other place. Having this mudra (契印), one can gather the power of sovereignty from the eight directions. Each direction has eight directions, and each direction has eight kinds of 'following the mind' (随心). What are the eight? First, 'following the mind' in transformation; second, 'following the mind' in compassion; third, 'following the mind' in relieving suffering; fourth, 'following the mind' in expounding the Dharma; fifth, 'following the mind' in being free in accordance and opposition; sixth, 'following the mind' in gathering all essential mudras that naturally follow; seventh, 'following the mind' in turning all poisons towards goodness, attaining the Buddha's body without regression; eighth, 'following the mind' in bestowing all worldly karmic rewards and blessings, giving what can be given, relinquishing what can be relinquished, cultivating what can be cultivated, accomplishing what needs to be accomplished, and destroying what needs to be destroyed. Good men, in such matters of 'following the mind,' each one has hundreds of thousands of Ganges-river-sands of 'following the mind' matters, which cannot be fully described. If there are those who seek, they should form a mudra and seek in the morning, and there is nothing that cannot be followed. If it does not come to fruition, then the Buddhas are speaking falsely. If there are good men and good women who wish to uphold this mudra, who wish to seek the Buddha position, who wish to seek the Bodhisattva (菩萨) position, who wish to seek the Vajra (金刚) position, who wish to seek the position of gods, who wish to manifest in the ten directions, who wish to be born in the Western Pure Land, who wish to be born freely in the lower realms, who wish to be born freely in the ten directions, who wish to have eloquence without shortcomings, they should single-mindedly contemplate and recite this mantra a thousand times each day. Within seven days, they will be able to attain it, and once they leave this world, they will no longer return. Why? Because they will be the same as the Buddha's body, attaining the Buddha's supernatural powers; because they will be the same as the Buddha's mind, attaining the Buddha's compassion; because they will be the same as the Buddha's eyes, attaining the Buddha's vision; because they will be the same as the Buddha's strength, attaining the Buddha's support; because they will be the same as the Buddha's conduct, acting in the world; because they will attain the Buddha's seal, receiving the seal personally; because they will attain the same transformations as the Buddhas; because they will attain the Dharma body, and all demons and heretics will naturally surrender. How do they surrender? Because they see no two bodies, only one body; because they see no two Buddhas, only one Buddha. Good men, you should know that this mudra can only be remembered and upheld by Buddhas and Buddhas, not by all sages. Only all --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

菩萨愿力满者乃能记持。非初心也非诸金刚。佛受与者然始忆持。非小通也。善男子等若将此契。十方世界所有通灵。无不识知。无不摄受无不顶礼。无不归从无不加护。十方如来无不印可。宁于百亿恒河沙数世界。诸有大地尽皆灭没。诸须弥山王末为微尘。复有佛身迁转不定。当知此契不可说无有定相。何以故。岂有诸佛迁转身也。当知此契诸佛执持非菩萨手。若有菩萨不从佛受。能行此契无有是处。若有金刚不从佛受。能得此契亦无是处。尽于世界虽有诸天不得见闻。何以故佛不受故。善男子当知此契。欲同诸力无有校量。若能至诚持经三日。大地震动如佛出世。日月光明自然不现。何以故为此力故。善男子我此印契。久事我者即来付属。同我心者我亦付属。具大慈悲我亦付属。长养法性我亦付属。能度众生直至菩提我亦付属。依我经教记持在心我亦付属。能为众生作决定者我亦付属。能使众生修行戒行。所有魔事为作制约。不令退失我亦付属。善男子当知此契。佛额上光。结持之百遍举至额际即能放光。善男子当知此契如来心。结契持百遍自得佛心。善男子当知此契如来眼。持契百遍举至左眼即同佛见。举至右眼即同菩萨见。举至眉间即同金刚不坏神通自在见。善男子当知。此印如来神通变化。结契持之百遍举 至左膊即同如来无边身。身通化自在观见众生在于身中。举至右膊即运转大地在于身中。善男子当知此契。即是如来神足无碍故。结契持百遍。上下八方应时示现。皆有七步纵迹。善男子当知。此契同于如来语。持契百遍举至于口。所说法要同如来音。无有碍滞皆合契经。善男子当知此契如来顶轮。结契持之百遍能与恶业众生作大福田。善业众生证果受记。当知此契假使一切诸佛同时出生。此契神力如诸佛力。善男子当知此契不可思议。若于愿持者必须珍重。勿妄宣传与诸非人。何以故我自保护故。若传非人即同谤我。若谤我者必无出离。若不出离云何得见十方诸佛。云何得闻十方诸佛名字。更何得见诸佛法身。诸佛永劫更无护念。一落地狱过十恒河沙劫始得出生。虽得出生经百千劫受无目身。当知此契必须记持勿轻用也。受法忏悔除难救苦。摄障度人降魔止毒用。纵有轻小事意用此法者多不成就。自当失验。若能依此诸验自成不假别持。使我广说句义重叠。遍于大地犹亦不尽。记之不轻。 第五如来善集陀罗尼契(亦名摄菩萨契亦名摄一切金刚藏王法身契亦名集一切陀罗尼神藏契亦名集一切威力自在契)。 先以左右二手合掌交二中指右押左于掌中。二大母指左押右各捻本中指如环。二无名指二小指并 现代汉语译本： 举至左肩，即等同于如来无边法身。能于自身之中观见众生，自身与法身相通，变化自在。举至右肩，即能运转大地，大地亦在自身之中。善男子，应当知晓此手印，即是如来神足无碍的显现。结此手印并持诵一百遍，上下八方应时示现，皆有如来七步的足迹。善男子，应当知晓，此手印等同于如来的语言。持此手印并持诵一百遍，举至口边，所宣说的佛法要义，等同于如来的声音，没有任何阻碍，都与佛经相合。善男子，应当知晓此手印等同于如来的顶轮。结此手印并持诵一百遍，能为作恶业的众生种下广大的福田，能使行善业的众生证得果位，得到授记。应当知晓此手印，即使一切诸佛同时出现于世，此手印的神力也与诸佛的力量相同。善男子，应当知晓此手印不可思议。如果有人发愿受持此手印，必须珍重，不要随意传授给非人。为什么呢？因为我要自我保护的缘故。如果传授给非人，就等同于诽谤我。如果诽谤我，必定无法脱离苦海。如果不能脱离苦海，又如何能见到十方诸佛？又如何能听闻十方诸佛的名字？又如何能见到诸佛的法身？诸佛永劫都不会护念他。一旦堕入地狱，要经过十恒河沙劫才能出生。即使能够出生，也要经历百千劫，承受没有眼睛的果报。应当知晓此手印必须牢记，不要轻易使用。此法可用于接受佛法、忏悔罪业、消除灾难、救度苦难、摄伏障碍、度化众生、降伏魔怨、止息毒害。如果用此法处理轻微小事，大多不会成就，自身也会失去效验。如果能够按照此法修行，各种效验自然成就，不需要另外修持。即使我广说此法的句义，重重叠叠，遍满大地，也说不尽此法的功德。记住，不要轻视此法。 第五，如来善集陀罗尼契（也名为摄菩萨契，也名为摄一切金刚藏王法身契，也名为集一切陀罗尼神藏契，也名为集一切威力自在契）。 先将左右二手合掌，交叉二中指，右中指压在左中指上，置于掌中。二大拇指，左大拇指压在右大拇指上，各自捻在本中指上，形成环状。二无名指和二小指并拢。

English version: Raising it to the left shoulder is the same as the Tathagata's (如来 - Thus Come One) boundless body. One can observe beings within oneself, with oneself and the Dharma body interconnected, transforming freely. Raising it to the right shoulder is to rotate the great earth, with the great earth also within oneself. Good son, you should know that this mudra (契 - hand gesture, seal) is the manifestation of the Tathagata's unobstructed divine feet. Forming this mudra and reciting it a hundred times, the eight directions above and below will manifest accordingly, all with the Tathagata's seven steps. Good son, you should know that this mudra is the same as the Tathagata's speech. Holding this mudra and reciting it a hundred times, raising it to the mouth, the Dharma essence spoken is the same as the Tathagata's voice, without any obstruction, all in accordance with the sutras (契经 - Buddhist scriptures). Good son, you should know that this mudra is the same as the Tathagata's crown chakra (顶轮 - crown chakra). Forming this mudra and holding it a hundred times can plant vast fields of merit for sentient beings who commit evil deeds, and enable sentient beings who perform good deeds to attain fruition and receive predictions. You should know that this mudra, even if all Buddhas were to appear in the world simultaneously, the divine power of this mudra would be the same as the power of all Buddhas. Good son, you should know that this mudra is inconceivable. If someone vows to uphold this mudra, they must cherish it and not casually transmit it to non-humans. Why? Because I am protecting myself. If it is transmitted to non-humans, it is the same as slandering me. If one slanders me, they will certainly not be able to escape suffering. If one cannot escape suffering, how can they see the Buddhas of the ten directions? How can they hear the names of the Buddhas of the ten directions? How can they see the Dharma body of the Buddhas? The Buddhas will never protect or remember them. Once they fall into hell, it will take ten Ganges sands kalpas (恒河沙劫 - countless eons) to be born again. Even if they are born again, they will endure hundreds of thousands of kalpas, suffering the retribution of having no eyes. You should know that this mudra must be remembered and not used lightly. This Dharma can be used for receiving the Dharma, repenting of sins, eliminating disasters, saving from suffering, subduing obstacles, liberating sentient beings, subduing demons, and stopping poisons. If this Dharma is used for trivial matters, it will mostly not be accomplished, and one will lose its efficacy. If one can practice according to this Dharma, all kinds of efficacy will naturally be accomplished, without the need for separate practice. Even if I were to speak extensively about the meaning of this Dharma, repeating it over and over, filling the entire earth, I would still not be able to exhaust its merits. Remember, do not despise this Dharma. Fifth, the Tathagata's Good Gathering Dharani Mudra (如来善集陀罗尼契 - Tathagata's Good Gathering Dharani Mudra) (also named the Mudra of Gathering Bodhisattvas, also named the Mudra of Gathering All Vajra Treasury Kings' Dharma Bodies, also named the Mudra of Gathering All Dharani Divine Treasures, also named the Mudra of Gathering All Powerful and Unobstructed Power). First, bring both hands together in prayer, cross the two middle fingers, with the right middle finger pressing on the left middle finger, placing them in the palm. The two thumbs, with the left thumb pressing on the right thumb, each touch the base of their respective middle fingers, forming a ring. The two ring fingers and two little fingers are joined together. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
