English version The Dharani Sutra of the Buddha on the Great Vehicle of the Holy Immeasurable Life, the King of Determined Light, the Tathagata No. 937 [No. 936] The Dharani Sutra of the Buddha on the Great Vehicle of the Holy Immeasurable Life, the King of Determined Light, the Tathagata Translated by the Tripitaka Master, the Purple-Robed Shramana Chen Fatian, from Nalanda Monastery in Magadha, Central India, under Imperial Decree Thus have I heard. At one time, the World Honored One was in Jeta Grove in Shravasti, together with a great assembly of twelve hundred and fifty Bhikshus. All were Arhats who had exhausted their outflows, whose minds were liberated, who were free from afflictions, who had attained their own benefit, whose minds were well liberated, and who were known by the assembly. There were also great and wise Bodhisattva Mahasattvas, adorned with merit and virtue, complete with dignified conduct, and other venerable ones, who had all gathered to hear the Dharma. In the assembly, the foremost was the Bodhisattva Mahasattva Great Wisdom Wondrous Auspiciousness (Mahamati-Manjushri). At that time, Shakyamuni Buddha, out of compassion for all short-lived beings in the future world, so that they might increase their lifespan and obtain great benefit, spoke this inconceivable, secret, profound, subtle, and supreme Dharma. At that time, The World Honored One said to the Bodhisattva Great Wisdom Wondrous Auspiciousness: 'You should listen attentively. From this Jambudvipa (Southern Jambudvipa, the world we live in), westward, passing through immeasurable Buddha lands, there is a world named Immeasurable Treasury of Merit (Amitagunadhara). That land is adorned with splendor, decorated with various jewels, pure and supreme, peaceful and joyful, surpassing the ten directions, the most subtle and excellent. In that world of the Immeasurable Treasury of Merit, there is a Buddha named Immeasurable Life, the King of Determined Light, the Tathagata (Amitayus-Niyata-Prabha-Raja-Tathagata), who has attained Anuttara-Samyak-Sambodhi (unsurpassed, right and perfect enlightenment). He now dwells in that world, and with great compassion, expounds the wonderful Dharma for all beings, enabling them to obtain supreme benefit and happiness.' The Buddha further said to the Bodhisattva Wondrous Auspiciousness: 'Now, in this world of Jambudvipa, people's lifespans are about one hundred years. Among them, many create various evil karmas and die prematurely. Wondrous Auspiciousness, if there are beings who can see this Dharani Sutra of the Immeasurable Life, the King of Determined Light, the Tathagata, the merit is extremely supreme, or if they hear the name of this sutra.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: The Dharani of the One Hundred and Eight Names of Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata (定光明王如来). If someone personally writes or teaches others to write this dharani (陀罗尼, a type of mantra or incantation), and places it on a high tower or in a clean place within a temple, adorns it properly, and makes various offerings, a person with a short lifespan can obtain longevity and live to a hundred years. Such a person, upon death, will be reborn in the Buddha-field of Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata (无量寿决定光明王如来), in the world of the Treasury of Immeasurable Merits. When Sakyamuni Buddha (释迦牟尼佛) was expounding this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra,' ninety-nine kotis (俱胝, a unit of measurement in India, one koti equals ten million) of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also eighty-four kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also seventy-seven kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also sixty-six kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also fifty-five kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also forty-four kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also thirty-six kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also twenty-five kotis of Buddhas, with one mind and voice, who also expounded this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' At that time, there were also ten Ganges river sands (殑伽河沙数) kotis of Buddhas, each with the same mind, and with one voice, all expounding this 'Amitayus-niyata-prabha-raja-tathagata Dharani Sutra.' If someone writes this Dharani Sutra themselves or teaches others to write it, such a person will not fall into hell, will not fall into the realm of hungry ghosts, and will not fall into the realm of animals after death. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
