10.3

“Bhagavān, these dhāraṇī-mantra words have been taught by buddha bhagavāns as numerous as the grains of sand in sixty⁵³⁶ Ganges Rivers. If anyone opposes that kind of dharmabhāṇaka, someone who upholds this sūtra, they will offend all those buddha bhagavāns.”

At this, the Bhagavān congratulated the bodhisattva mahāsattva Bhaiṣajyarāja, saying, “Bhaiṣajyarāja, through your reciting these dhāraṇī-mantra words you have benefited many beings. It is excellent, Bhaiṣajyarāja, excellent that you protect, guard, and conceal through your compassion for beings.”

Then the bodhisattva mahāsattva Pradānaśūra said to the Bhagavān, “Bhagavān, I⁵³⁷ too shall provide the words of a dhāraṇī-mantra for this kind of dharmabhāṇaka. If someone is seeking an opportunity to harm this kind of dharmabhāṇaka, such as a yakṣa, a rākṣasa, a pūtana, a kṛtya, a kumbhāṇḍa, or a preta, through this they will not find an opportunity to do so.”

The bodhisattva mahāsattva Pradānaśūra then recited the words of the dhāraṇī-mantra:

“Tadyathā:⁵³⁸ jvale mahājvale⁵³⁹ ukke mukke⁵⁴⁰ aḍe⁵⁴¹ aḍāvati⁵⁴² nṛtye nṛtyāvati⁵⁴³ iṭṭini⁵⁴⁴ viṭṭini⁵⁴⁵ ciṭṭini⁵⁴⁶ nṛtyani⁵⁴⁷ nṛtyāvati⁵⁴⁸ svāhā.
