English version The Buddha Speaks the Dharani Sutra of the Victorious Crown Translated by the Tripitaka Master Yijing of the Great Tang Dynasty under Imperial Decree Thus have I heard. At one time, the Bhagavan (World Honored One) was in the Jeta Grove (Jetavana) of the Anathapindika Garden (Anathapindika-arama) in Sravasti (Sravasti). He was with a gathering of twelve hundred and fifty great Bhikshus (monks), and twelve thousand Bodhisattva-Mahasattvas (great Bodhisattvas). At that time, in the Sudharma Hall of the Trayastrimsa Heaven (Heaven of Thirty-three), there was a Deva (god) named Supratisthita (Well-Established). He was surrounded by many great Devas and Devis (goddesses), enjoying supreme honor and nobility, delighting in games, various heavenly music, and mutually entertaining each other, experiencing all kinds of happiness. Then, in the middle of the night, Deva Supratisthita heard a voice saying: 'Deva Supratisthita, in seven days you will surely die. After death, you will be reborn in Jambudvipa (the human world), and you will undergo seven rebirths as animals (beings of the animal realm). After that, you will suffer the pain of hell. After emerging from hell, you may hope to obtain a human body, but you will be born into a poor and lowly family, and while still in your mother's womb, you will be without eyes.' Upon hearing this voice, Deva Supratisthita's hair stood on end, and he was filled with great fear. He was sad, worried, unhappy, and terrified, not knowing what to do. He immediately and quickly went to the abode of Sakra (Indra, the Lord of the Devas), weeping and wailing. He prostrated himself at the feet of Sakra and said: 'May the Honorable One listen to what I have to say. When I was surrounded by the Devis, enjoying happiness, I heard a voice saying: 'Deva Supratisthita, in seven days your life will come to an end. After death, you will be reborn in Jambudvipa, and you will undergo seven rebirths as animals. After that, you will suffer the pain of hell. After emerging from hell, you may hope to obtain a human body, but you will be born into a poor and lowly family, and while still in your mother's womb, you will be without eyes.' Hearing these words, I am terrified and do not know how to escape this suffering.' At that time, upon hearing the words of Deva Supratisthita, Sakra was greatly astonished and pondered deeply. Which seven rebirths in evil realms would this Supratisthita undergo? After a moment of quiet contemplation, he focused his attention and observed carefully. He then saw that Supratisthita would undergo seven rebirths in evil realms, namely as a pig, dog, jackal, monkey, snake, crow, and vulture. He would eat all kinds of filthy and impure things. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

。尔时帝释观见善住天子。当堕七返恶趣身已。极轸慈念愁忧苦恼痛贯身心。谛思何计何所归依。谁能覆护得免斯苦。复作是念唯有如来应正等觉大慈悲父。令其善住免斯苦耶尔时帝释作是念已。于初夜分以种种华天妙衣服以自庄严。执持花香往逝多林。诣世尊所恭敬供养。顶礼双足绕七匝已。长跪合掌而白佛言。善住天子闻有声言。却后七日命终而受七返傍生恶趣之身。闻此语已极怀忧苦痛贯于心。世尊大慈哀慜利益。云何令得免斯苦耶。 尔时世尊闻此语已。即便微笑于其顶上。放种种光遍照三千大千世界还至佛所。若佛世尊说过去事光从背入。若说未来事光从胸入。若说地狱事光从足下入。若说傍生事光从足跟入。若说饿鬼事光从足指入。若说人事光从膝入。若说力轮王事光从左手掌入。若说转轮王事光从右手掌入。若说天事光从脐入。若说声闻事光从口入。若说独觉事光从眉间入。若说阿耨多罗三藐三菩提事光从顶入。是时光明还至佛所。绕佛三匝从佛口入。尔时世尊告帝释曰。天帝有陀罗尼。名为如来佛顶尊胜。能净一切恶趣生死苦恼。又能净除一切地狱琰摩王界傍生之苦。又破一切地狱之业回趣善道。天帝此佛顶尊胜陀罗尼。不可思议有大神力。若复有人一经于耳。先世所造一切恶业悉皆消灭。当 现代汉语译本：当时，帝释（Indra，天神之王）观察到善住天子（Susthita Deva，一位天神）将要堕落七次到恶趣受生，心中充满了慈悲和忧愁，痛苦贯穿身心。他认真思考着有什么办法，可以归依何处，谁能庇护他免受这种痛苦。他又想到，只有如来应正等觉（Tathagata Arhat Samyaksambuddha，佛的称号，意为如实而来、应受供养、正等觉悟者）这样大慈大悲的父亲，才能让善住天子免除这种痛苦。当时，帝释产生了这个念头后，在初夜时分用各种鲜花和天界的妙衣来庄严自己，拿着花和香前往逝多林（Jetavana，祇树给孤独园），去到世尊（Bhagavan，佛的称号，意为世尊）那里恭敬供养。他顶礼佛的双足，绕佛七圈后，长跪合掌对佛说：‘善住天子听到有声音说，七天后他将命终，并且要七次转生为傍生道的恶趣之身。听到这些话后，他非常忧愁，痛苦贯穿内心。世尊您有大慈悲，请哀悯并利益他，要怎样才能让他免除这种痛苦呢？’ 当时世尊听到这些话后，就微微一笑，从他的头顶上放出各种各样的光芒，遍照三千大千世界，然后又回到佛的身上。如果佛世尊说过去的事情，光就从背后进入；如果说未来的事情，光就从胸前进入；如果说地狱的事情，光就从脚下进入；如果说傍生道的事情，光就从脚跟进入；如果说饿鬼道的事情，光就从脚趾进入；如果说人间的事情，光就从膝盖进入；如果说力轮王的事情，光就从左手掌进入；如果说转轮王的事情，光就从右手掌进入；如果说天道的事情，光就从肚脐进入；如果说声闻的事情，光就从口中进入；如果说独觉的事情，光就从眉间进入；如果说阿耨多罗三藐三菩提（Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi，无上正等正觉）的事情，光就从头顶进入。这些光芒回到佛的身边后，绕佛三圈，然后从佛的口中进入。当时，世尊告诉帝释说：‘天帝（Devendra，天神之王），有一种陀罗尼（Dharani，总持，咒语），名为如来佛顶尊胜陀罗尼（Tathagata Usnisa Vijaya Dharani），能够净化一切恶趣的生死苦恼，又能够净化清除一切地狱、琰摩王界（Yama's realm，阎罗王的境界）、傍生道的痛苦，又能够破除一切地狱的业，回向善道。天帝，这个佛顶尊胜陀罗尼，不可思议，有大神力。如果有人仅仅听到一次，过去世所造的一切恶业都能够消灭。’

English version: At that time, Indra (King of the Gods) observed that Susthita Deva (a celestial being) was about to fall into the evil realms for seven rebirths, his heart filled with compassion and sorrow, pain piercing his body and mind. He earnestly pondered what means there were, where he could take refuge, and who could protect him from this suffering. He further thought, 'Only the Tathagata Arhat Samyaksambuddha (title of the Buddha, meaning 'Thus Come One, Worthy One, Perfectly Enlightened One'), the great compassionate father, can enable Susthita to escape this suffering.' Having formed this thought, Indra, in the first part of the night, adorned himself with various flowers and exquisite celestial garments, and holding flowers and incense, went to Jetavana (Jeta's Grove), approached the World-Honored One (Bhagavan, title of the Buddha, meaning 'Blessed One') and made respectful offerings. He prostrated at the Buddha's feet, circumambulated him seven times, knelt with palms joined, and said to the Buddha: 'Susthita Deva heard a voice saying that in seven days he will die and be reborn seven times into the evil realms of animals. Upon hearing this, he is extremely worried, and pain pierces his heart. World-Honored One, with great compassion, please have mercy and benefit him. How can he be freed from this suffering?' At that time, upon hearing these words, the World-Honored One smiled, and from the crown of his head emitted various kinds of light, illuminating the three thousand great thousand worlds, and then returning to the Buddha's body. If the Buddha spoke of past events, the light entered from his back. If he spoke of future events, the light entered from his chest. If he spoke of hell, the light entered from beneath his feet. If he spoke of the animal realm, the light entered from his heels. If he spoke of the realm of hungry ghosts, the light entered from his toes. If he spoke of the human realm, the light entered from his knees. If he spoke of the Cakravartin king of strength, the light entered from his left palm. If he spoke of the Cakravartin king, the light entered from his right palm. If he spoke of the heavenly realm, the light entered from his navel. If he spoke of the Sravakas, the light entered from his mouth. If he spoke of the Pratyekabuddhas, the light entered from his brow. If he spoke of Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (Unsurpassed Perfect Enlightenment), the light entered from the crown of his head. These lights returned to the Buddha, circumambulated him three times, and then entered from the Buddha's mouth. At that time, the World-Honored One said to Indra: 'Devendra (King of the Gods), there is a Dharani (a sacred utterance or spell), called the Tathagata Usnisa Vijaya Dharani (The Victorious Dharani of the Buddha's Crown), which can purify all the suffering of birth and death in the evil realms, and can also purify and eliminate all the suffering of hell, Yama's realm (the realm of the King of Death), and the animal realm. It can also break all the karma of hell and turn it towards the path of goodness. Devendra, this Tathagata Usnisa Vijaya Dharani is inconceivable and has great divine power. If someone merely hears it once, all the evil karma created in past lives will be extinguished.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
