Then, by repeating it without error, They will attain excellent accomplishments. “Pay homage to the buddhas, The Dharma, the bodhisattvas, The pratyekabuddhas, the śrāvakas, And to Brahmā, Śakra, and the Four Mahārājas, “And imagine that you reverently serve Those who continually practice celibacy. “In a place that is peaceful and solitary, Recite audibly the dhāraṇīs and praises, And set out a vast offering To all the buddhas, devas, and nāgas. “Develop a motivation of compassion Toward the many classes of beings. Contemplate with a one-pointed mind The Bhagavat’s golden color and his signs. “Contemplate well the words and meaning Given specifically for individual capacities Through the Dharma, the supreme speech of the Bhagavat, And accomplish and remain in emptiness. “If you contemplate with a one-pointed mind The direct presence of all the bhagavats, Then you will obtain samādhi, Wisdom, and the sublime dhāraṇī. “The Dharma speech from the glorious throat of the Bhagavat, That sublime voice, guides his followers. His tongue covers the trichiliocosm And manifests various, individual wonders. “If you continually contemplate that excellent, Supreme speech, you will attain fearlessness. This inconceivable sign of his tongue Was attained through the power of vast prayers. “Just as space has no impediment, He teaches that phenomena are nonexistent. Contemplate the speech of the feature that is the Buddha’s tongue, And countless prayers will be fulfilled. - [Previous: 165](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.suvarnaprabhasa*bo-d556~en-84000.165) - [Next: 167](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.suvarnaprabhasa*bo-d556~en-84000.167) ## Linked texts (1) - [འཕགས་པ་གསེར་འོད་དམ་པ་མདོ་སྡེའི་དབང་པོའི་རྒྱལ་པོ་ཞེས་བྱ་བ་ཐེག་པ་ཆེན་པོའི་མདོ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.suvarnaprabhasa*bo-d556.166) — Classical Tibetan --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.suvarnaprabhasa*bo-d556~en-84000.166](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.suvarnaprabhasa*bo-d556~en-84000.166) · Pramāṇa
