In that pond, there are wondrous jeweled lotus flowers. They emit a red light, like red 'Poh-Li' (a type of gemstone), radiating great brilliance. Within the lotus flower sits Tara Bodhisattva (the Savioress). Her left hand holds a blue lotus, and her right hand rests upturned on her navel, in a meditative posture. Her eyes are also in the same state. She is adorned with magnificent 'Ying-Luo' (necklaces), draped in light silk and garments like the colors of the morning clouds, dwelling peacefully. The four gates of the mandala are decorated with banners, canopies, railings, steps, and 'Nandi Shangkha' (two kinds of ritual implements). Devas play music, praising the holy assembly. On the east side of the mandala are painted the 'Akanistha' Devas (the highest heavens in the Realm of Form), the 'Shaoguang' Deva, and the 'Wure' Deva. On the north side are painted the 'Miaojian' Deva and the 'Shanxian' Deva. On both sides of the gate are painted Brahma, Brahma-parisadya Devas, Abhasvara Devas, and Maha-brahma. On each of the four sides are painted two Devas, all wearing jeweled crowns and draped in red garments, some wearing yellow or white garments, without 'Ying-Luo' on their bodies, dwelling in meditation. Each places their right hand on the top of their head, making a gesture of reverence. On the side of the outer courtyard gate is painted 'Krsna Pandu' demon king, adorned with 'Ying-Luo', appearing as a youth. Next are painted the 'Nirmāṇarati' Devas, the 'Tusita' Devas, the 'Yama' Devas, and 'Śakra' Deva, dwelling near the gate. Next are painted the Four Heavenly Kings, Garuda Deva, 'Ishana', the lord of ghosts and spirits, and Vishnu Deva, holding a wheel. Next is painted 'Pancika', the great Yaksha general. Next is painted 'Rambha' the great Yaksha, as well as 'Manibhadra' and 'Purnabhadra' Yaksha kings. And painted 'Hariti' the great Yaksha woman (Mother of Demons), the four sisters of the sun, moon, and stars, 'Karttikeya' the boy, and the two dragon kings 'Nanda' and 'Upananda'. Such holy beings all need to be welcomed and invited with a focused mind, and respectfully sent off with intention. Take white flowers and place them in an 'Argha' vessel (a vessel for water), offering them to all Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Pratyekabuddhas, Sravakas, and all Mantra-Siddhas. Everything in the mundane and supramundane realms needs to be fully visualized and offered with the heart. Use white sandalwood, camphor, and turmeric as fragrant water, sprinkling it on the holy assembly. Also, grind these fragrances into powder and burn them. One should say these words: 'May all Buddhas, all great Bodhisattvas, and all holy beings grant me 'Siddhi' (accomplishment), so that I may quickly escape the mud of birth and death.' After reciting this three times, make offerings according to one's ability. Constantly keep in mind and pray to all Mantra Devas of the mundane and supramundane realms, wishing them to bless me. Each one forms their original mudra and corresponds to it. Fill eight new bottles with fragrant water, and place all seeds and --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: [It] eradicates the sins of birth and death for countless kalpas. The Second Painting Chapter of Avalokiteśvara Tārā Bodhisattva At that time, Avalokiteśvara (Guānzìzài) Bodhisattva Mahāsattva again said to Tārā (Duōluó) Bodhisattva, 'If a practitioner wishes to accomplish the second painting method, first paint Amitābha (Wúliàngshòu Fó) in the central platform, leaning against the Bodhi tree. On the left, paint Vimalaprabha (Lígòu Púsà) Bodhisattva, white in color, adorned with various ornaments and wearing silk garments, holding a white whisk in his hand, looking sideways at the Buddha. On the right, paint the four-armed Avalokiteśvara (Guānzìzài) Bodhisattva, with the first right hand making the fearless mudrā (abhaya-mudrā), using the middle finger and thumb to hold prayer beads, and extending the other hand in a head-patting gesture; the second hand making a staff-holding shape. The first left hand holds a red lotus flower, and the second hand holds a kuṇḍikā (jūnchí, water bottle). On the right side of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva, paint Tārā (Duōluó) Bodhisattva, adorned with wonderful treasures, with a green-yellow body, holding a blue lotus flower with her palms together, sitting in a half-lotus position, making a respectful bowing gesture. Below Vimalaprabha Bodhisattva, paint the three-eyed, four-armed Bhṛkuṭī (Píjùzhī) Bodhisattva, wearing plain clothes, with the first left hand holding a lotus flower, the second hand holding a kuṇḍikā; the first right hand making the fearless mudrā, and the second hand holding prayer beads.
