English version: After one knot is tied at the top (representing the five wisdoms of the five directions). The left hand holds the Vajra, and the right hand holds the vajra staff. Because of the person with strong anger and evil nature, he does not wear a kasaya (袈裟, monastic robe), but wraps his neck and shoulders with celestial garments. The drawing method of Acala (不动明王) is now complete. Next, the method of offering is explained. If a practitioner wishes to make offerings, they must first generate Bodhicitta (菩提心, the mind of enlightenment). What is Bodhicitta? It is the mind of saving sentient beings, contemplating the suffering of sentient beings, and generating the mind of rescuing and helping them. When such a mind is generated, Acala (不动明王) and the Eight Great Youths act as teachers without being invited, emerging from one's own mind to protect the practitioner. One should make offerings, dwelling in quiet places in the mountains and forests, burning incense, scattering flowers, and reciting mantras. When practicing in this way, messengers will manifest and serve at will. First, one must bow to the Buddhas of the four directions and make great vows. That is, bowing to the East, thinking: 'Sentient beings are boundless, I vow to save them all.' This is the vow of the Great Perfect Mirror Wisdom. This is the gate of Bodhicitta. Bodhicitta is the mind of saving sentient beings, so those who make this vow and bow will always receive the blessings of Vajrasattva (金刚萨埵) until they become Buddhas, so that Bodhicitta is perfected. Next, bowing to the South, thinking: 'Blessings and wisdom are boundless, I vow to gather them all.' This is the cause of the Wisdom of Equality. This is the gate of blessings and wisdom. Because blessings and wisdom are used as the two kinds of resources to benefit sentient beings. If one makes this vow and performs this bowing, one will always receive abhiseka (灌顶, empowerment) from Akasagarbha Bodhisattva (虚空藏菩萨) in every stage until one becomes a Buddha, and blessings and wisdom will be perfected. Next, bowing to the West, thinking: 'Dharma gates are boundless, I vow to learn them all.' This is the cause of the Wonderful Observing Wisdom. This is the gate of wisdom. In order to become a great Dharma king, those who make this vow and bow will receive the blessings of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva (观自在菩萨) until they become Buddhas, and wisdom will be perfected. Next, bowing to the North, thinking: 'Tathagatas are boundless, I vow to serve them all.' This is the cause of the Accomplishing Wisdom. This is the gate of action. Because one performs various actions before all the Buddhas. If one makes this vow and performs this bowing, one will receive the blessings of Vajrakarma Bodhisattva (金刚业菩萨) until one becomes a Buddha, and one will accomplish vast offerings in all Buddha worlds. Next, bowing to Vairocana Tathagata (毗卢遮那如来), thinking: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English
English version: This is to say, the vow to attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (supreme enlightenment) is the cause of Dharmadhatu-nature wisdom (wisdom encompassing the entire universe). To attain the position of Mahavairocana-Samantabhadra (two important Bodhisattvas in Buddhism), pervading the Dharmadhatu, and thereby better benefit sentient beings, this vow is made. At that time, all the Buddhas of the ten directions simultaneously testified and praised, saying, 'Excellent!' Therefore, all the Bodhisattvas and holy beings jointly protect it. Soon, one will attain the supreme path. Now that the general vow has been stated, other specific vows may be expressed at will, and even these roots of goodness may be dedicated to the equal benefit of oneself and others. At the same time, do not eat unclean food, have no sorrow in your heart, do not arise from afflictions such as greed, anger, and ignorance, do not delight in worldly pleasures, and deeply cultivate Dhyana (meditation). Such a practitioner is the greatest joy in the world and a teacher of sentient beings. Samadhi (a meditative state) manifests, and one quickly attains Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (unexcelled complete enlightenment). 'The Secret Essential Dharma Chapter on the Birth of the Eight Great Youths from the One Syllable of the Holy Achala-vidyaraja (immovable wisdom king)' On the eighth day of the Qingming Festival in the year of Otomi-卯, the dragon flying in the twentieth year of Kyoho (享保), I secretly compiled and published what my master taught.
