“ ‘Those who have committed dreadful evil acts
Throughout a thousand eons
Will purify⁹⁹ themselves of them
Through one single confession.
“ ‘Those who are obscured by bad karma
Will quickly become purified of it
Through confessing with these confessions
Through the good Sublime Golden Light.¹⁰⁰
“ ‘May I dwell¹⁰¹ upon the ten bhūmis,
The supreme ten that are the source of jewels.¹⁰²
May the qualities of a buddha appear
And may I liberate others from the ocean of existence.¹⁰³
“ ‘Through the inconceivable qualities of a buddha,
The flow of the ocean of buddhahood,
And the deep ocean of buddha qualities,
May I have the perfection¹⁰⁴ of omniscience.
“ ‘Through a hundred thousand samādhis,
Through countless powers of mental retention,
And through the strengths, powers, and branches of enlightenment,
May I become¹⁰⁵ a sublime one with the ten strengths.
“ ‘I pray that the buddhas look upon me
And regard me with their minds.
I pray that with their minds of great compassion
They apprehend the errors I have made.¹⁰⁶
“ ‘I am tormented by a sorrowful mind,
By wretchedness, misery, and terror
Concerning the bad actions I have done
In the past, throughout a hundred eons.
“ ‘I am terrified of my bad actions;
My mind is always low.
Wherever it is that I go,¹⁰⁷
I find no happiness.
“ ‘All the compassionate buddhas
Dispel the fear of all beings.¹⁰⁸
I pray that you apprehend my faults
And free me from fear.
“ ‘May the tathāgatas remove
The stain¹⁰⁹ of my kleśas and karma.
I pray that the buddhas wash me
With the water of their compassion.¹¹⁰
“ ‘I confess all my bad actions;
Those that I have done in the past
And those that are my present bad actions,
I make a confession of them all.
“ ‘I make the commitment that I will not do again
All the wrong actions that I have done.
I will not conceal those bad actions,
Those wrong actions that I have done.
