Any being who aspires to obtain it will have immeasurable merit. I will constantly guard and defend them, dispel all their suffering, and establish them in happiness. They will also generate the accumulations of wisdom and merit. Those who wish to possess this dhāraṇī-mantra should first recite this mantra in order to protect their bodies:

namo vaiśravaṇāya mahārājāya | tadyathā | rara rara kuno kuno khuno khuno ruṇo ruṇo saba saba kara kara mahāvikaraṃ mahāvikaraṃ mahākāla mahārāja rakṣa rakṣatu²⁵² mām sarvasatvānāñ ca svāhā |²⁵³

“Bhagavat, by reciting this mantra and applying it seven times to a white cord, each time untying a knot—and after doing that seven times, tying it onto the upper arm—your goal will be certainly be achieved.²⁵⁴

“Then, in a solitary house, wash yourself and wear clean clothes. Make an offering of incense that is a mixture of equal amounts of bdellium, sandalwood, camphor,²⁵⁵ frankincense, agarwood,²⁵⁶ valerian, and so on, and invoke Mahārāja Vaiśravaṇa by repeating this mantra:

namo vaiśravaṇāya mahādhanadāya caṇḍeśvarāya ākarṣa aparājita caṇḍeśvara paramakāruṇika saravasatvāhitacintā²⁵⁷ mama dhanavardho parameśvara²⁵⁸ svayaṃ ākarṣaya svāhā |²⁵⁹

“After repeating that mantra seven times, repeat the root mantra. Before repeating this mantra, bow down to the Three Jewels and Mahārāja Vaiśravaṇa. If you repeat this mantra so that Mahārāja Vaiśravaṇa will fulfill the aspirations of all beings and bestow wealth, thereby bringing happiness to all beings, then those beings will attain the happiness they wish for.”

Then Vaiśravaṇa, the lord of devas, recited in the presence of the Bhagavat this essence mantra called the precious wish-fulfilling jewel:

namo ratnarayāya | namo vaiśravaṇāya mahārājāya | tadyathā | simi simi sumu sumu caṇḍa caṇḍa cara cara, sara sara kara kara kili kili kuru kuru muru muru curu curu sandhāya ātmanām
