“The Buddha Akṣobhya in the east,
The Buddha Ratnaketu in the south,
The Buddha Amitābha in the west,
And the Buddha Dundubhisvara in the north.

“This auspicious, sublime teaching
Is in order to eliminate all bad actions.
It causes all bad karma to cease.³⁷

“It will bestow every happiness;
It will eliminate all suffering.
It is the basis of omniscience,
And it is adorned by every splendor.

“Beings with impaired faculties,
Whose lives are in decline and ending;
Those who are beset by misfortune,
Who have been forsaken by the devas,

“Who are hated by their spouses and other people,
Who are tormented by family and servants,
Who are in conflict with others,
And who are oppressed by loss of wealth;

“Those who are miserable, tired, and ruined,
Who are frightened and in distress,
Who are oppressed by planets and lunar asterisms,
And who are afflicted by dreadful demons;

“And those who see evil in their dreams
Arising from misery and fatigue
Should wash themselves clean
And listen to this supreme sūtra.

“For those who listen to this sūtra,
This profound field of the buddhas,
With a lucid mind and good motivation,
And dressed in clean clothes—

“For all those beings,
All those dreadful misfortunes
Will always come to an end
Through the brilliance of this sūtra.

“The guardians of the world themselves
And their ministers and army generals,
As well as a multitude of millions of yakṣas,
Will be their protectors.

“The great goddess Sarasvatī
And Nairañjanāvasinī,
Hārītī, the mother of spirits,
And Dṛḍhā, the goddess of the earth;

“The lords of Brahmā devas, lords of the devas;³⁸
The greatly powerful lords of the nāgas;
And the lords of the kinnaras, the lords of the asuras,
And similarly the lords of the garuḍas³⁹

“Will come to the place where those people are,
Accompanied by troops and steeds,
And will be their protectors,
Attentive day and night.

“I will elucidate this sūtra,
Which is the profound field of the buddhas,
Which is the secret of all buddhas,
And which is difficult to obtain in a million eons.
