English version: If one recites this mantra without fail during nighttime travels, there will be no fear of thieves, tigers, fierce beasts, evil spirits, or other difficult and frightening situations. By reciting with a focused mind and using it as a means of self-protection, all these calamities will naturally disappear, or one may develop bodhicitta (the mind of enlightenment), or generate a sense of fear, or verbally seek to be freed from these calamities. If one is bound, one will be naturally liberated. If one wishes to cross rivers or oceans and fears the nāgas (serpent deities in Indian mythology), turtles, and other creatures in the water, reciting the mantra as before will eliminate the fear. If someone is bitten by a snake, have that person circle the one reciting the mantra several times, and the poison will be cured. If one suffers from boils, carbuncles, eczema, or fistulas, mix frankincense (a type of incense) with clean earth and water, recite the mantra twenty-one times, and apply it to the affected area for healing. If a country experiences drought or floods, or if livestock such as cattle and horses suffer from epidemics, one should place sesame seeds, barley, polished rice, millet, beans, ghee, honey, yogurt, white sandalwood, and various other fragrances to one side, burn incense, and make vows to remove calamities for all sentient beings. Then, form hand mudras (hand gestures) for self-protection, visualize, and take the aforementioned items, reciting the mantra to bless them, and throw them into the fire to burn. Do this for seven consecutive days, three times each day, reciting the mantra one thousand and eighty times each session to fulfill your wishes. All will be peaceful and happy, and all the Triratna (the Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma, Sangha) will protect and assist you, and you will also accomplish all great vows. If one wishes to subdue all great ghosts and spirits so that they submit upon sight, take seven śarīra bones (relics of the Buddha or high monks), place them in a white crystal bowl, and add half a pint of clarified butter (ghee) to the bowl. On the night of the fifteenth day of the waxing moon, in front of an incense altar and a stūpa (Buddhist monument), create a maṇḍala (sacred diagram) one or two cubits square with mud, and place the bowl in the center. Offer beautiful flowers. Place an incense burner on the west side and burn benzoin incense (a type of incense), continuously reciting the mantra. The śarīra in the bowl will emit light or produce more śarīra. At this time, the practitioner should hold the incense burner, make vows, and prostrate. Then, take out the śarīra and drink the ghee. Place the śarīra in a crystal bottle, put it in a five-colored bag, and wear it on the head. In this way, countless koṭis (a unit of measurement) of Buddhas will always follow the practitioner, and all ghosts and spirits will naturally submit. During the ritual, one must abstain from food for one day and one night. If one seeks wealth and abundance, place polished rice and sesame seeds in ghee, and take a small handful. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If one wants others to respect and love them, call out the name of that person and recite this teaching one thousand and eighty times, and one will gain their respect and love.

Take the fragrant water from the bottles and bathe in it, and the husband will love his wife and she can become pregnant. If a wife does not love her husband, follow the same method as before. If one wants to subdue a Śatrū (怨敌), take a Kapala (头盖骨), wash it clean with fragrant water. Take yellow cinnabar and ghee, mix them together, and apply it to the Kapala, covering it completely. Create a small Mandala and place it in the center. Light five ghee lamps, distributing them in the four corners and the center. Chant the name of the person, recite the mantra once, and empower white mustard seeds. Place a bowl of milk on the Mandala and offer it to this Kapala.

English version: Divine elixirs and miraculous medicines. Or one sees the prediction of Bodhi (Bodhi-vyakarana: prediction of future Buddhahood) being bestowed. Or (Buddhas and Bodhisattvas) appear in person to inquire. All who beg for wishes will attain the position of a Bodhisattva. Furthermore, there is another method. Circumambulate the image of the Bodhi tree to the right, reciting and chanting for a full one million times. Then one will see Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats expounding the Dharma for them. If one wishes to follow a Bodhisattva, one can immediately follow. All requests will be fulfilled as desired. One may even manifest in person as a great mantra-reciting immortal, immediately going to the pure lands of the ten directions, experiencing the service of all Buddhas, and hearing the wonderful Dharma. Furthermore, there is another method. If, when begging for food, one constantly holds this Dharani, one will not be harmed by evil people, evil dogs, and the like, and it will be easy to beg for food. Furthermore, there is another method. If one recites and holds this Dharani three hundred thousand times in front of a stupa, a Buddha image, or a Sharira stupa. And from the first to the fifteenth day of the white month (the waxing moon), one sets up a grand offering. Not eating for one day and one night, when single-mindedly reciting, one will see Vajragarbha Bodhisattva. (The Bodhisattva) will take this person to his own palace. Furthermore, there is another method. If someone encounters royal trouble, is imprisoned, and has their body confined by shackles, reciting this Dharani will bring liberation. Furthermore, there is another method. If one is in front of a Dharma-wheel-turning stupa, or a stupa at the place where the Buddha was born, or a stupa with jeweled steps where the Buddha descended from Trayastrimsa Heaven, or a Sharira stupa. In front of such stupas, reciting and circumambulating to the right for a full seven times seven days (forty-nine days), one will see Apalalita Bodhisattva and Hariti Bodhisattva. All their wishes will be completely fulfilled. If one needs an elixir, it will be immediately bestowed. Furthermore, they will expound the Dharma for him, indicating the path to Bodhi. If there are those who recite this Dharani, until they sit at the Bodhimanda, all Bodhisattvas will become their excellent friends. Moreover, this Cundi Dharani is spoken by all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, for the benefit of all sentient beings, for the sake of the boundless Bodhi-mandala. If there are sentient beings with meager blessings, those without a little good root, those without capacity, those without a share of Bodhi, if this person can hear this Cundi Dharani, if they read it once, they will obtain the root of Bodhi, and their capacity will sprout and grow, how much more so if they recite and hold it, constantly without懈怠 and abandonment. Through this good root, the seed of Buddhahood will be quickly accomplished, and immeasurable merits will all be accomplished, (benefiting) immeasurable sentient beings. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 远离尘垢。决定成就阿耨菩提。 说七俱胝佛母准提陀罗尼念诵法。
