English version: Completed. May you grant us fearlessness. May we attain our original mind. Then Ekajata (Ekajata, a manifestation of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva) should make the gesture of fearlessness with all the ghosts and spirits, and each will attain their original mind. Pay homage to Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva Mahāsattva. Then pay homage to the incarnate Ekajati. Each returns to their original palace. Then Ekajata said to Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva, 'I have a method for accomplishing a seven-day offering and altar creation. If there are śrāmaṇas (śrāmaṇa, renunciates), brāhmaṇas (brāhmaṇa, Hindu priests), and virtuous men, etc., who request the secret Dharma treasury, they must achieve great efficacy. If the kings have a firm resolve in their hearts, repent of all their sins, and wish to see the great Dharma assembly, first seek a clean and spacious courtyard, as well as a good temple or Buddha hall, or even an open space will suffice.' After selecting the place, on the first day of the white month, in the morning, the ācārya (ācārya, teacher) and the disciples should bathe with fragrant water and bring various fragrant flowers to that place. The ācārya, holding a vajra (vajra, a ritual weapon), asks the disciples in order, 'Are you determined to learn the secret Dharma treasury of all the Buddhas? Do not have doubts.' The assembly replies, 'We wish to learn the Dharma treasury of all the Buddhas, and we are determined to be sincere and have no doubts.' This is asked and answered three times in order. After this is answered, then the ācārya uses hand gestures to seal the incense burner, water, etc., and after reciting the mantra, holding the incense burner, kneels and burns incense, reporting to all the Buddhas, Prajñā (prajñā, wisdom) Bodhisattvas, Vajra (vajra) deities, etc., and all the deities of karmic paths. 'This land is my land, and I now wish to establish a seven-day and seven-night great Dharma assembly and altar, offering to all the Buddhas, World Honored Ones of the ten directions, and the great Bodhisattva assembly of Prajñāpāramitā (Prajñāpāramitā, perfection of wisdom), Vajra deities, etc., leading all the disciples, determining all the secret Dharma treasury inconceivable Dharma doors.' In order to obtain various proofs, I wish to protect myself and establish boundaries. Within this courtyard, in the east, west, north, south, four intermediate directions, above and below, all Vinayakas (Vinayaka, obstacle-creating deities) and evil ghosts and spirits who destroy the true Dharma must leave the boundary seven miles away. If there are virtuous gods and spirits who protect the true Dharma and are beneficial to my Buddha Dharma, they may stay as they wish.' After saying these words, in order, according to the Kuṇḍali (Kuṇḍali, a wisdom king) method, dispel and establish boundaries. After establishing the boundaries, have someone dig away ten hasta (hasta, ancient Indian unit of length). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: The Acharya (Acharya, teacher) starts from the southeast corner and sits facing the northwest corner, doing as before. Then the disciple in the southwest corner rises and sits facing east, also doing as before. Next, at the place previously pieced together, leaving a distance of one elbow from the outside to the inside, piece it together again in the same way as before. Then take a divine thread of eight elbows in length, bend it so that it faces one side of the altar, marking a point every zhao (zhāo, a measure word, referring to a step or a move). Then bend a rope of two elbows in length, starting from the central point of one side of the altar, measure left and right, and mark two more points. Next, open a gate on that side, leaving a width of five fingers from the altar rope. Then bend again, making the gate open five fingers wide to the left and right. Then, on the outside of that gate, draw a straight line to mark it. Do this on one side, and the other three sides should be done accordingly. Next, make the middle courtyard, with the outer rope being four elbows long. The inner rope of the outer courtyard and the outer rope of the middle courtyard should leave a passage of one elbow wide between them. The gates of the middle courtyard should be opened on all four sides, leaving a total width of three fingers to the left and right. The method of piecing together the divine thread on the outside of the gate is the same as before. The inner square of the middle courtyard should be one elbow away from the outside world, and then pure divine thread should be pieced together again. Piece together the very center of the altar, making a courtyard two elbows wide, and do not open a gate. Then, the Acharya uses five-colored threads, making a knot for each recitation of the mantra, making a total of fifty-five knots. Use the Hayagriva (Hayagriva) Dharani. The mantra is as follows: 'Ehi Bhagavan Arya (two syllables combined) Avalokiteshvara Buddha Buddha Sattvaya Manusmara Satya (two syllables combined) Manusmara Tatatha Nana Juju Kini Kini Hini Hini Nuru Nuru Meru Meru Churu Churu Turu Turu Suru Suru Muru Muru Vara Vara Bodhaya Bodhaya Hili Mili Nidhi Ni Siddhyantu Mimantala Patana Svaha (elongated)' Then wrap the five treasures and the seeds of the five grains in silk cloth, and tie them to the mantra rope with five-colored threads, wrapping them one by one according to the number of people. Then erect a pole at each of the four corners of the altar, and two poles at the west gate, wrapping the threads around the poles at the four corners, and hanging them on the threads... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Variegated Banners: Banners are hung above the altar in the four cardinal directions (east, west, south, north), intertwined and adorned. Outside the altar courtyard, on the south side of the west gate, at a distance of two feet, a fire pit is dug, each side measuring two feet in length, width, and depth. Inside the pit, an earthen platform is made, and on the platform, a lotus seat is fashioned from fragrant mud. The next day, at sunset, the Acharya (achali, teacher) instructs all disciples to bathe. Then, the Acharya performs a great boundary consecration. The next day, at sunrise, the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Vajras are invoked. In the center of the altar, an image of the Buddha is placed, with an image of Avalokiteśvara (Guānzìzài, the Observer of the Sounds of the World) to the north and an image of Vajra (jīngāng, Diamond Being) to the south. They are offered various fragrant flowers, five platters of food, and sixteen lamps. Next, a new, clean mat is spread outside the west gate. Then, the Acharya calls all the disciples to perform the body protection mudra. Each one recites the mantra seven times, and the mudra is applied to the crown of the head, both shoulders, heart, throat, between the eyebrows, hairline, and back of the head of each disciple. After the body protection is completed, the disciples are instructed to sit on the mat, facing east. Then, fragrant flowers and white mustard seeds are taken. The Acharya holds the white mustard seeds and recites the mantra seven times, then strikes the head of each disciple three times in succession. After striking them three times, the Hayagriva (Hayagriva, Horse-Headed King) mudra is used for further body protection. The mantra is: Om（ōng）賀也（hè yě）仡哩（gē lī）嚩（pó）三（sān）暮（mù）多（duō）阿（ā）弭（mí）帝（dì）吽（hōng） Next, the Acharya kneels and asks the eldest disciple, 'Do you now wish to learn this Dharma?' The disciple replies, 'I wish to.' In this way, all the disciples are asked in order, using the same method as before. Then, the Acharya holds fragrant water and pours it over the head of each disciple, covering them. With the right hand, the Acharya presses on the chest of each disciple, reciting the Hayagriva mantra for them. Then, a mantra cord is taken and tied to the arm of each disciple, the left arm for men and the right arm for women. Then, the fragrance of the juice of the Sal tree is used to anoint the body of each disciple in succession, rotating three times clockwise, completing the anointing with fragrant water. Then, a whirling torch is used, also in the same manner as before. Then, toothpicks, each eight fingers in length, are given. Then, flowers are given, and the disciples are instructed to sit in a row facing east, and taught to throw the flowers forward. Then, the toothpicks are chewed and thrown in the same way as before. If the flower head faces the person, it is good; if the back faces east, it is known that demonic obstacles are present; if it faces north or south, it is neither good nor bad. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
