English version: Sins and obstacles, as well as attachment to the Dharma, the obscuration of knowledge, and the obstacles of discriminating views. This wheel arises from his heart and is at his feet. By riding on his Buddha-body, he attains as I am. One should always single-mindedly practice this accomplishment, not allowing it to be lost. At that time, the Buddhas as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, having heard this Dharma, each praised the World Honored One Mahavairocana (Vairocana, the fundamental Buddha of the universe), scattering various flowers and incense upon the Buddha, and after praising with wonderful songs, each returned to their own Buddha-lands. At that time, Vajrapani (Vajrapani, a Bodhisattva symbolizing power and protection) Buddha and others, having heard this teaching, again asked: 'Virtuous One, to what kind of person should this Dharma be given to accomplish?' At that time, the World Honored One, the Tathagata Mahavairocana (Mahavairocana Tathagata, another name for Mahavairocana), said: 'This Dharma, given to those with honest hearts, those without discriminating minds, and those without the obscurations of knowledge and views, will surely attain my Buddha-body accomplishment.' At that time, Vajrapani and the eight great Bodhisattvas practiced this Dharma before the Buddha, and in an instant (a very short time) became equal to the Buddha. The eight great Bodhisattvas, having become Buddhas, again praised the Buddha with flowers and songs, desiring to return to their own lands. At that time, the World Honored One said: 'Although you have attained the Buddha-body, you have not yet repaid the Buddha's kindness.' At that time, the eight great Bodhisattvas asked the Buddha: 'What is repaying the Buddha's kindness?' The Buddha said: 'Having all become Buddhas, you must extensively liberate sentient beings, and not dwell in stillness, selfishly enjoying solitary bliss.' At that time, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, having heard this teaching, immediately transformed back into Bodhisattvas and bowed at the Buddha's feet. The Buddha told Vajrapani: 'You should use this Dharma to extensively liberate sentient beings, quickly enabling them to become Buddhas.' At that time, Vajrapani and others said: 'If I do not use this Dharma to extensively liberate sentient beings, causing them all to become Buddhas, I vow not to attain perfect enlightenment.' At that time, the World Honored One again told Vajrapani: 'Good son, I will again speak to you of the heart within the heart of a single syllable, the secret within the secret, the A (introducing) syllable, the one-syllable gate. If a good son constantly dwells in this one-syllable gate, he will not be born or die in samsara, and without changing his physical body, he will attain this Dharma. This one-syllable gate is the constant dwelling place of the Buddhas of the past three ages, the present three ages, and the future three ages. If one attains accomplishment without this Dharma, there is no such possibility.' At that time, Vajrapani, having heard the Buddha's teaching, the golden wheel on the Buddha's crown, the wheel gradually became larger, vast and boundless, without form or color, silently abiding in the Dharmadhatu. At that time, Vajrapani, witnessing this scene, unable to reach it, praised it with a verse: The nature of all Buddhas is boundless, the form of the wheel is the Dharmadhatu. We have realized this Dharma, we should extensively liberate sentient beings. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 度众生 云何世尊入 住大寂三昧 愿为我出现 不违本所誓

尔时世尊轮王闻金刚手等请已。亦不现身。于虚空法界位有声言金刚手。 诸佛性无边 色相俱自在 声色俱真实 迷者有分别 现色而无色 本来空寂然 汝恒持此法 广度诸有情 时金刚手八大菩萨。闻佛说已。欢喜作礼信受奉行。 大妙金刚大甘露军拏利焰鬘炽盛佛顶经 现代汉语译本： 度化众生 如何是世尊进入，安住于大寂静的三昧（Samadhi，一种冥想状态）？ 愿您为我们显现，不违背您最初的誓言。 这时，世尊轮王（转轮圣王，Universal Ruler）听闻金刚手（Vajrapani，佛教护法神）等菩萨的请求后，也没有显现身形，而是在虚空法界的位置发出声音说道：‘金刚手，' 诸佛的佛性无边无际，色相和功用都自在无碍。 声音和色相都是真实的，迷惑的人才会加以分别。 显现色相却又无色相，本来就是空寂无染。 你应恒常秉持此法，广度一切有情众生。’ 当时，金刚手和八大菩萨，听闻佛的开示后，欢喜地行礼，信受奉行。 《大妙金刚大甘露军拏利焰鬘炽盛佛顶经》

English version: Delivering Sentient Beings How does the World Honored One enter and abide in the Samadhi (Samadhi, a meditative state) of Great Tranquility? May you appear for us, not violating your original vow. At that time, the World Honored One, the Wheel-Turning King (Universal Ruler), having heard the requests of Vajrapani (Vajrapani, a Buddhist guardian deity) and the other Bodhisattvas, did not manifest his body, but from the position of the Dharma Realm of Emptiness, a voice said: 'Vajrapani,' The Buddha-nature of all Buddhas is boundless, and their forms and functions are all free and unhindered. Sound and form are both real; it is the deluded who make distinctions. Appearing in form, yet without form, it is originally empty and still. You should constantly uphold this Dharma and extensively deliver all sentient beings.' At that time, Vajrapani and the eight great Bodhisattvas, having heard the Buddha's teachings, joyfully bowed, accepted with faith, and practiced accordingly.
