The army of the Lord of Death will revere them.
Even Yama, the sublime King of the Law,
Will reverentially pay homage.

“ ‘Experience my hell briefly,’ he will say,
‘Then go to the city of gods!’
This one with great miraculous power
Will use many palatial crafts⁹¹
To travel to the beautiful abode of the gods.
There, they will thus always be revered
By gods, humans, yakṣas, and rākṣasas.

“One will always be followed and protected
By Vajrapāṇi, lord of the yakṣas,
Indra, husband of Śacī,
Hārītī and Pāñcika,
The protectors of the world with their great miraculous powers,
The moon, the sun, the lunar mansions,
The celestial bodies who are supremely cruel,
All the great nāgas,
The gods, and likewise the ṛṣis,
Asuras, garuḍas, gandharvas,
Kinnaras, and mahoragas.

“The wise one who writes
The mighty incantation of great miraculous power
And wears it fastened to their arm
Will receive great reverence
And always have good fortune.”

Colophon

This was translated by the Indian preceptors Jinamitra and Dānaśīla and the translator-editor Bandé Yeshé Dé. It was then finalized after revising it based on the new lexicon. Later, the lotsāwa Shönu Pal revised it based on a Sanskrit manuscript that had been in the possession of the Dharma lord Chak Lotsāwa.
