English version The Mudra of the Samaya of the Buddha Family With both hands at the heart, interlock the fingers to form fists, and erect the two thumbs. Recite the mantra: Om Er-na-er-jia Suo-wa (two combined, elongated sound) He (departing tone, elongated sound) Silently recite this mantra three times. Understand that all subsequent procedures follow this pattern. Scatter the mudra above the head. By forming this mudra and reciting this Samaya mantra of the Buddha Family, all Buddhas in the ten directions of the Dharma realm gather together, filling the void, blessing the practitioner to be free from all obstacles and afflictions, purifying the three karmas (body, speech, and mind), and swiftly fulfilling the vows of practice. Second, form the Mudra of the Samaya of the Bodhisattva Family With both hands at the heart, form fists as before. Bend the left thumb into the palm. Recite the mantra: Om A (elongated sound) Lu (elongated sound) Li-jia Suo-wa (two combined) He (departing tone) Recite three times as before. Scatter the mudra above the head. By forming this mudra and reciting this Samaya mantra of the Bodhisattva Family, one immediately obtains Avalokiteśvara (Guānzìzài Púsà) and all Bodhisattvas in the ten directions of the Dharma realm, who gather together, filling the void, blessing the practitioner, purifying the three karmas, and eliminating all disasters. These Bodhisattvas, upholding their fundamental vows of compassion, ensure that all requests are fulfilled. Third, form the Mudra of the Samaya of the Vajra Family With the right hand forming the previous mudra, extend the left thumb. Bend the right thumb into the palm. Recite the mantra: Om Vajra (two combined) Di-li-jia Suo-wa (two combined, elongated sound) He Recite three times as before, and scatter the mudra above the head. By forming this mudra and reciting this Samaya mantra of the Vajra Family, one immediately obtains all Vajras (Jīngāng) in the ten directions of the Dharma realm, manifesting wrathful bodies, gathering like clouds, filling the void, blessing the practitioner, making the three karmas firm like Vajra. These holy beings, upholding the majestic power of the Buddha and their own vows, on a large scale, protect the country and its borders from disasters, and on a small scale, protect even a single person from all calamities. Fourth, form the Protection Mudra Again, use the mudras formed for the Buddha, Bodhisattva, and Vajra Families, and recite the mantras, applying them to five places: the forehead, left shoulder, right shoulder, heart, and throat. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version Five places. Scatter on the top of the head. Immediately form a Vajra (diamond) solid armor. By this blessing, the body of the practitioner is covered. The majestic light illuminates and frightens all demons who create obstacles and troubles. Their eyes dare not look, and they quickly flee. Fifth, form the Averting Seal and the Vajra (diamond) Directional Boundary Seal. Using the previous Vajra (diamond) division mudra (hand gesture), chant that mantra and circumambulate the mandala three times to the left. This can avert powerful demons and follow the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. If there are hidden demons, they will move far away to other realms. Circumambulate three times to the right, according to the size of your mind, and a Vajra (diamond) Directional Boundary will be formed. Even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will not violate it, let alone those who create obstacles and troubles. Scatter on the top of the head. Sixth, form the Seal of Inviting the Holy Assembly to Descend to the Mandala. Use the previous three division mudras (hand gestures) and chant the mantra. Use the thumbs to beckon towards yourself, three times each. Immediately, the Holy Assembly of the three divisions filling the sky in front, each according to their respective positions, without obstructing each other, abide peacefully. Scatter on the top of the head. Seventh, Offer the Akara (water offering) Incense Water Seal. Use both hands to hold a Mani (wish-fulfilling) jewel vessel filled with incense water, place it between the eyebrows, and chant the mantra: Om Vajra (two combined, elongated) Nadaka Hum (elongated) Chant three times as above. Visualize vast distribution, gradually and universally bathing all the Holy Assembly. Scatter on the top of the head. Because of offering the Akara (water offering), from the Stage of Understanding and Practice to the Stage of Dharma Cloud, in each stage, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the ten directions universally protect and the Buddhas bestow empowerment. Eighth, Offer the Jeweled Throne Seal. Use both hands to form a hollow-hearted Anjali (palms together) at the chest. The two thumbs and two little fingers touch each other slightly bent. The remaining six fingers are scattered, slightly bent like an opening lotus flower. The mantra is: Om Kamala Svaha (two combined, elongated) By forming the mudra (hand gesture) and chanting the mantra, the offered jeweled throne allows all the Holy Assembly to truly receive and use it. This enables the practitioner of the Dharma to attain a Vajra (diamond) solid throne in the stage of fruition. Ninth, form the Universal Offering Seal. Use both hands to form Anjali (palms together), with the five fingers interlaced. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 以右押左。置于心上诵真言曰。

English version: Place the right hand over the left. Place the mudra (hand gesture) at the heart and recite the mantra: 'Namo Samanta Buddhanam Sarvatha Kham Udgate Sphara Himam Gagana Kham Svaha' By forming this mudra and reciting the mantra, the lotus heart is widely spread, pervading the Dharmadhatu (realm of all phenomena), the assemblies of Buddhas (enlightened beings) and Bodhisattvas (beings striving for enlightenment) in all Buddha-fields. It universally rains down all offerings. Upon reciting it once, treasure vessels filled with dust-like particles are filled with scented paste, which is universally applied to the holy assembly. Upon reciting it a second time, various flower garlands universally adorn. Upon reciting it a third time, various incenses are burned for universal offering. Upon reciting it a fourth time, supreme and wonderful foods from the heavens rain down, placed in treasure vessels for universal offering. Upon reciting it a fifth time, various Mani jewels rain down as lamps for universal offering. Due to the power of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas being blessed by the recitation of the mantra, the offered incense and other offerings become real in all assemblies, and the holy assembly receives and enjoys them. The practitioner will constantly receive such rewards in future lives. Tenth, forming the fundamental mudra of Prajnaparamita (Perfection of Wisdom): Again, place the backs of both hands together. Fold the two index fingers inward. Bend the two little fingers into the palms. Press the tips of the two fingers with the thumbs respectively. Place the mudra at the heart. Recite the dharani (incantation) in the sutra seven times. By forming this mudra and reciting the dharani, the practitioner immediately transforms into the Bodhisattva Prajnaparamita. She becomes the mother of all Buddhas. The image of the Bodhisattva is seated in the lotus position on a white lotus, with a golden body. Various jeweled ornaments adorn her body. She wears a jeweled crown, tied with a white silk ribbon, with the ends hanging down on both sides. The left hand is placed at the heart, holding the Prajna scripture. The right hand is placed at the breast, forming the teaching mudra (gesture of teaching), with the thumb pressing the tip of the ring finger. Then visualize that from every pore of the Bodhisattva's body, from the top of her head to the tips of her toes, light flows out, manifesting various colors, pervading the entire Dharmadhatu. Within each ray of light, countless Buddhas are manifested, pervading all worlds in the boundless space, universally proclaiming the profound Dharma of Prajnaparamita to beings according to their capacities, enabling them to understand and abide in Samadhi (meditative absorption).
