English version: With one heart, I reverently invite. The eighteen lords of the Yama Raja Realm (阎罗王界), all the spiritual beings who govern good deeds and punish evil, and all the holy assembly of ghost kings who administer diseases, medicines, and calamities. With one heart, I reverently invite. The guardian deity of the Sangharama (护伽蓝神) in this dwelling place and the protectors of the true Dharma (for the benefactor, this position need not be invited). With one heart, I reverently invite. The five sacred princes of the spiritual altar shrines and temples in this territory, the city god (城隍神), and all the holy assembly. With one heart, I reverently invite. The dragon gods protecting the house within the benefactor's residence, the directional taboos, the guardian deities of the ward affairs, storehouses, and shops, the palace constellations and primordial spirits of the elders and children in the house, and all the deities who remove disasters and bestow blessings (whether it be a country or a family, simply add or subtract according to the different circumstances of the dwelling place, and circumambulate three times to invite). All the Three Jewels invited above, Shakyamuni Sararaja Buddha (释迦牟尼娑罗王佛), I pray that you do not abandon your great compassion and lead your retinue to my dwelling place, to receive my offerings and the various stars, and may all the deities, each receiving the majestic light of the Three Jewels, all descend here. I am now performing great auspiciousness here, reciting divine mantras, and I pray that you protect us, so that there are no obstacles, and that all sentient beings may obtain immeasurable blessings, thus up to three times. This method of summoning is only used when entering the altar, and the rest is deleted. It is necessary to earnestly pray and hope for your descent. Third, praising the Dharma of the Three Jewels (after inviting the Three Jewels, the assembly stands up, joins their palms, and instructs the benefactor to hold the incense burner, kneel before the Three Jewels, and listen attentively to the statement of intent, it is necessary to earnestly pray with tears, to surely obtain what is sought, to pray for great auspiciousness, and to eliminate disasters and obstacles. In your heart, recite the subtle merits and virtues of the Three Jewels, and with your mouth, recite the verses together, praising and chanting blessings) The wonderful form of the Tathagata, is unmatched in the world; incomparable and inconceivable, therefore I now respectfully bow. The form of the Tathagata is inexhaustible, and so is his wisdom; all dharmas are eternal, therefore I take refuge. (After praising, state the intention of establishing the Dharma assembly, dedicate it to Bodhi, and state whatever auspiciousness is sought). Fourth, upholding the mantra according to the Dharma (after praising and stating, the assembly bows once, kneels on one knee, and recites in unison) Namo Buddha --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version Namo Buddha, Namo Dharma, Namo Sangha. Namo Shakyamuni Buddha. Namo Past Śālarāja Buddha (repeating three times, then saying). I shall now recite the 'Uṣṇīṣa-vijaya-dhāraṇī' spoken by the Past Śālarāja Buddha, which is: Namo. Samanta (universal) buddhānām (of all Buddhas). Aprati (unobstructed) hataśāsanānām. Tadyathā. Om. Khakha. Khakhi khakhi. Hum hum. Jvala (flame). Jvala. Prajvala. Prajvala. Tiṣṭha (abide). Tiṣṭha. Ṣṭhiri. Ṣṭhiri. Sphata. Sphata. Śāntika (peaceful). Śriye (auspicious). Svāhā (accomplishment). This dhāraṇī is proclaimed together by all Tathāgatas. If there are bhikṣus, bhikṣuṇīs, virtuous men, or virtuous women who receive, uphold, read, and recite this dhāraṇī, they will be able to accomplish eighty thousand kinds of auspicious things and eliminate eighty thousand kinds of inauspicious things. Even all the fourfold assembly, hearing what the Buddha said, were all greatly pleased. Fifth Method of Paying Homage to the Buddha After reciting the mantra, the practitioner should wholeheartedly straighten their body with dignified deportment, and in proper order, pay homage to the Dharma body of all Buddhas, like the emptiness of space, manifesting forms in response to beings, as if they are right before one's eyes. This is true for each and every Buddha. The practitioner should know that their body and mind are empty and still, and their shadow appears in the Dharma realm. Before each Buddha, there is this body bowing with head and face to the ground. Let the donors follow the bowing, rising and falling together, orderly and without losing decorum. Chant: Wholeheartedly I prostrate to the original teacher, Shakyamuni Buddha, and all Buddhas throughout the Dharma realm (visualizing as usual). Wholeheartedly I prostrate to the Past Śālarāja Buddha, and all Buddhas throughout the Dharma realm. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 佛。

(Kneeling with hands holding the incense burner, contemplate: 'I and all sentient beings, from beginningless time, have always been obstructed by the heavy sins of the three karmas and six senses. We do not see the Buddhas, nor do we know the way to liberation. We only follow birth and death, and do not understand the wonderful principle. Although I now know, I am still obstructed by all heavy sins, just like all sentient beings. Now, before Sakyamuni (Buddha Sakyamuni) and the Buddhas of the ten directions, I take refuge and repent for all sentient beings. I only wish for your protection so that these obstructions may be eliminated.') Universally for Brahma, Sakra, the Four Heavenly Kings, the wandering sky gods, and all sentient beings. May all eliminate the three obstacles. Take refuge and repent. The Sixth Method of Repentance After the practitioner has finished prostrating to the Buddhas, he should then, in front of the Dharma seat, straighten his body and demeanor, burn incense, scatter flowers, and contemplate that the Three Jewels fill everything. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
