English version There is regression (referring to backsliding). If one observes the Tathagata-Dharmakaya (Dharmakaya, the Dharma-nature body of the Buddha) of that Buddha and diligently cultivates constantly, one will ultimately be reborn (Rebirth) and abide in right Samadhi (Samadhi, correct concentration). Explanation: According to this treatise, if those who cultivate faith here do not succeed, they are taught to cultivate in the Western Pure Land. Are these people Bodhisattvas beyond the ten powers (Dashabala, the ten powers of the Tathagata)? Thirdly, as Nāgārjuna (Nāgārjuna) Bodhisattva says in the Daśabhūmika-vibhāṣā (Daśabhūmika-vibhāṣā, a treatise explaining the ten stages of a Bodhisattva): 'Amitābha Buddha (Amitābha Buddha), practitioners should use this verse to respect and praise the Buddha.' The treatise says: 'Amitābha Buddha's (Amitābha Buddha) original vow is like this: If people remember me, recite my name, and naturally take refuge in me, they will enter the state of definitely attaining Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi (Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi, unsurpassed perfect enlightenment). Therefore, one should constantly remember and praise with verses.' Boundless light and wisdom, body like a true golden mountain, I now with body, mouth, and mind, join palms and bow in reverence. Golden, wondrous light, universally flowing through all worlds, increasing its color according to the object, therefore I bow in reverence. If a person at the end of life, is able to be born in that land, they will immediately possess boundless virtues, therefore I take refuge. If a person can remember this Buddha, with boundless power and merit, they will immediately enter the state of certainty, therefore I constantly remember. If people in that land die, even if they should receive suffering, they will not fall into evil hells, therefore I take refuge. If a person is born in that land, they will never fall into evil realms, and to Asuras, I now take refuge. The bodies of humans and devas are the same, like the peak of a golden mountain, the place where all victories return, therefore I bow my head and face. Those who are born in that land, possess heavenly eyes and ears, unobstructed in all ten directions, I bow to the most honored among the saints. The beings in that land, with supernatural transformations and bodily powers, also possess knowledge of past lives, therefore I take refuge. Those born in that land, are without self or what belongs to self, not giving rise to thoughts of this or that, therefore I bow in reverence. Transcending the prison of the three realms, free like a lotus leaf, the multitude of Shravakas is immeasurable, therefore I bow in reverence. The beings in that land, their nature is gentle and harmonious, naturally practicing the ten virtues, I bow to the king of all saints. From goodness arises pure brightness, immeasurable and boundless.

English version Among the two-legged, you are the foremost; therefore, I take refuge in you. If someone wishes to become a Buddha, and their heart contemplates Amitabha (Amitabha) Buddha, Amitabha Buddha will manifest before them in due course; therefore, I take refuge in him. Relying on the fundamental vows of Amitabha Buddha, bodhisattvas from the ten directions, Come to offer reverence to this sacred Dharma; therefore, I bow my head in respect. The bodhisattvas in the Pure Land, possessing all excellent marks and qualities, Adorn themselves; today, I take refuge and pay homage. The great bodhisattvas in that land, daily at the three times of the day, Make offerings to the Buddhas of the ten directions; therefore, I bow my head in reverence. If someone plants roots of goodness, but harbors doubt, the lotus will not bloom; Those with pure faith will see the Buddha when the lotus blooms. The Buddhas of the ten directions, in the present time, through various causes and conditions, Praise the merits and virtues of that Buddha; today, I take refuge and pay homage. That land is adorned with splendor, surpassing the palaces of the heavens, Its merits and virtues are profound and deep; therefore, I bow to the Buddha's feet. The Buddha's feet bear the thousand-spoked wheel mark, with the soft color of a lotus flower, Those who see it rejoice; with head and face, I bow to the Buddha's feet. The white hair between the eyebrows emits light, like the pure moon, Increasing the radiance of the face; with head and face, I bow to the Buddha's feet. When initially seeking the path of Buddhahood, you performed various wondrous deeds, As described in the scriptures; with head and face, I bow in reverence. The words spoken by that Buddha eradicate the roots of all sins, Beautiful words bring many benefits; today, I bow my head in reverence. With these beautiful words, you cure the sickness of those attached to pleasure, Having already liberated, and still liberating now; therefore, I bow my head in reverence. Most honored among humans and gods, the gods bow with their heads and faces, The seven-jeweled crown and mani jewel on your head; therefore, I take refuge in you. All the assembly of sages and saints, and the assembly of humans and gods, I all take refuge together; therefore, I also bow. Riding that boat of the Eightfold Path, one can cross the sea of suffering that is difficult to cross, Liberating oneself and also liberating others; I bow to this liberated one. The Buddhas, for countless kalpas, praise his merits and virtues, Yet cannot fully express them; I take refuge in this pure one. Now I, too, am like this, praising immeasurable virtues, With this cause of blessedness, may the Buddha always remember me. The merits and virtues I have accumulated in this life and previous lives

English version: Whether large or small, May my mind always be pure in the presence of the Buddha. Through the meritorious causes and conditions, and the supreme virtues obtained, May all sentient beings also attain them. A Gatha in praise of the two Bodhisattvas, Avalokiteśvara and Mahāsthāmaprāpta. Avalokiteśvara, Mahāsthāmaprāpta, with great names, Their merits and wisdom are immeasurable. Possessing compassion, they save the world, Wandering throughout the sea of all sentient beings. Such excellent beings are very rare to encounter, I wholeheartedly pay homage with head and face. Sentient beings are long asleep in the darkness of ignorance, Only these great compassionate ones can awaken them. Manifesting various forms according to conditions, Like a loving father thinking of his only child. May compassion save us all, I wholeheartedly pay homage to the lamp illuminating the world. Namo Avalokiteśvara, Namo Mahāsthāmaprāpta, Constantly entering the world without pause. Going to the six realms to save beings, Their forms are extraordinary, like purple gold. Their dignified demeanor is unparalleled in the world, A Buddha manifested in the treasure vase, within the heavenly crown. I wholeheartedly pay homage to their skillful means, Which can shake countless three-thousandfold great chiliocosms. In their movements, wonderful lotuses constantly support their feet, They always use their precious hands to receive sentient beings. I wholeheartedly pay homage to their bestowal of fearlessness, In immeasurable, boundless, countless kalpas, They extensively cultivate vows to assist Amitābha, Always in the assembly, proclaiming the Dharma. Sentient beings who hear it obtain pure eyes, May I always be able to approach them in every lifetime. Therefore, I wholeheartedly pay homage with head and face, Their spiritual powers pervade the ten directions, Universally appearing before all sentient beings, If sentient beings can sincerely recite their names, They will all be guided to a state of peace and happiness, Compassionate fathers who pity us in this world, Therefore, I wholeheartedly pay homage with head and face, Resting on a lotus seat that transcends the world, Like Mount Sumeru illuminating the great sea, Subduing sentient beings, enabling them to obtain fearlessness. I wholeheartedly pay homage to the lion among humans, I have followed the Sutra, Praising the precious merits of Avalokiteśvara, Such merits are inexhaustible, Like a drop of water in the great sea. Even if all the Tathagatas in the ten directions, Were to praise them for endless kalpas, they could not exhaust them. Such is the boundless and inexhaustible treasury, Therefore, I wholeheartedly pay homage with head and face. Having praised Avalokiteśvara and Mahāsthāmaprāpta, I will now praise all the Bodhisattvas in the ten directions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 萨 愿此功德遍世间 回共众生生彼国 释曰。依此论。唯赞叹礼拜。即得往生。
