English version: One must also mentally recite the name of that Buddha. Above, there is a Buddha named Jin Guang Wei Wang Xiang Si Rulai A Luo He San Miao San Fo Tuo (金光威王相似如来阿罗诃三藐三佛陀, meaning Golden Light Majestic King Similar Tathagata Arhat Samyak-sambuddha). One should also recite the name of that Buddha, cultivate reverence, and must recite his name, and must mentally recite the name of that Buddha. At that time, the Buddha told Maitreya (弥勒, name of a Bodhisattva): 'If there are good men of true faith, good women of true faith, when reciting the names of these twelve Buddhas, after ten days, they should cultivate repentance for all sins, rejoice in and encourage all the merits of all sentient beings, and request all Buddhas to dwell in the world for a long time.' With these good roots, they should dedicate them to the Dharma realm. At this time, they will be able to extinguish all sins, purify all karmic obstacles, and fully accomplish the adornment of all Buddha lands, achieve complete fearlessness, and also achieve complete adornment of their physical appearance, and also achieve the surrounding of Bodhisattva relatives, and also achieve immeasurable Dharani (陀罗尼, mantras), and also achieve immeasurable Samadhi (三昧, meditative absorption), and also achieve the adornment of wish-fulfilling Buddha lands, and also achieve immeasurable good teachers, and quickly achieve what was said above without increase or decrease, practicing Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (阿耨多罗三藐三菩提, unsurpassed perfect enlightenment) in afflictions, and obtain the beautiful and pleasing fruit of retribution, and also obtain abundant wealth and treasures, and be constantly born into families of great surnames and noble lineages, with complete physical appearances, and also obtain the surrounding of kind and harmonious relatives. At that time, the World Honored One again proclaimed this meaning and spoke in verse: 'If there are good men, if there are good women, etc., who receive and uphold the names of these Buddhas, in life after life, they will gain the love and respect of others, have great light and power, be respected as people in the place of birth, and later attain Buddhahood.' The Buddha again told Maitreya: 'If there are good men, good women, if they should receive and uphold the names of these Buddhas, they must also recite this Dharani mantra.'

English version In a certain Buddhakṣetra (Buddha-field, the realm of a Buddha), if someone encounters a Buddha and hears the correct Dharma (teachings), thereby obtaining a Śraddhā-caryā-citta (mind of practice based on faith), after obtaining this faith, they are often able to make offerings to the Buddha. After encountering the Buddha and hearing the Dharma, great joy arises in their heart. If they are able to see all the Buddhas, they make offerings to all the Buddhas with wonderful offerings. Those who uphold the name of the Buddha, in countless kalpas (aeons, a unit of time in Buddhism), are able to relinquish the sins of birth and death, and quickly attain Buddhahood. If someone can wholeheartedly, for seven days, recite the name of the Buddha, they will obtain pure eyes and be able to see countless Buddhas. Being able to uphold this Buddha's name, they will obtain immeasurable blessings. The place where this person is born, gods and humans will always respect. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, in countless kalpas, they will not be slandered or insulted by others, and in all the worlds, their name will be widely spread. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, in countless kalpas, gods will always make offerings, and no one will slander them, and they will quickly attain Buddhahood. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, they will not give rise to a timid heart, their wisdom will be without flattery or deceit, and they will always be in the presence of all the Buddhas. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, the place where that person is born, Nāgas (dragons, a type of supernatural being), Yakṣas (a type of guardian spirit), Gandharvas (celestial musicians), Kiṃnaras (half-human, half-bird deities), Asuras (warring deities), Garuḍas (mythical birds), and Mahoragas (serpent deities), humans and non-humans, etc., will always make offerings to this person. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, in every lifetime where they are born, they will often be born into wealthy and noble families, possessing the characteristics of a great man, without stinginess or jealousy, brave and fond of giving. The pores of their body will often emit various wonderful fragrances, and between the teeth in their mouth, a rich fragrance will also emanate, heavenly red sandalwood (a precious fragrant wood), and various other fragrances, for countless kalpas, the fragrance will always be continuous. In every lifetime where they are born, their voice will be like that of Brahmā (the creator god in Hinduism), and also like that of the Kalaviṅka (a beautiful bird), Jīvaṃjīvaka birds, and other birds. The blessings of those who uphold the name of the Dharma-rāja (Dharma-king, another name for the Buddha) are also like this. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, they will be born in a seven-jeweled lotus flower, that lotus flower will have a billion petals, and be complete with majestic light and appearance. If someone upholds the name of the Buddha, their parents and all their relatives, will be harmonious and without disputes, and will never experience separation or death.
