However, those bodhisattvas only want to go there together with me. It would be improper if they were deceived by sensual desires there and if they were to go there and act in ways that make them unworthy to be my followers, so I will now speak for their benefit.”
The thus-gone Campaka Color then said to the bodhisattva Quintessence of the Sun’s Energy, “Noble son do not be afraid! Do not be afraid! Sacred being, I will confer upon you the dhāraṇī mantra called lotus of sunlight, through which one will develop intense aversion for the entire prison of the three realms; one will reach, perfect, and abide by the gateway of liberation, the absorption of the absence of marks; one will enter unwavering absorption; and one will thoroughly pass into nirvāṇa. This dhāraṇī mantra accomplishes all physical feelings and perceptions as well as the level of gaining control and liberation. It accomplishes the elimination of the ocean of saṃsāra and the removal of obstructions to the lineage of the Three Jewels. It accomplishes great love, great compassion, liberated insight, the subjugation of all māras and enemies, the knowledge of exhaustion, and the knowledge of the unborn, as well as enjoyment, life energy, peace, and lasting nirvāṇa.
“Noble son, all afflictions, such as desire, will diminish in those who listen one-pointedly to this sunlight dhāraṇī mantra, and after they die they will circle for seven lifetimes among the gods. There they will remember their former lives and will not be sullied by desires.
