It lacks the customary title (in Sanskrit and Tibetan) at the beginning and has no narrative frame or interlocutors. The dhāraṇī concludes with an enumeration of the benefits that accrue from reciting the dhāraṇī: a son or a daughter of good family who recites this invocation of the Buddha Moonlight every morning after rising will remember all their past lives during forty thousand kalpas. Furthermore, they will not fall into the lower realms after death and will attain the attributes of awakening. - [Previous: intro.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.buddha.candraprabhanamanusmrti*bo~en-84000.intro.2) - [Next: intro.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.buddha.candraprabhanamanusmrti*bo~en-84000.intro.4) - [Up: intro](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.buddha.candraprabhanamanusmrti*bo~en-84000.intro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.buddha.candraprabhanamanusmrti*bo~en-84000.intro.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.buddha.candraprabhanamanusmrti*bo~en-84000.intro.3) · Pramāṇa
