96

Noble one, it ripens the supreme roots of merit of the bodhisattvas who are irreversibly upon the bhūmis, it is the sublime seal of the Dharma, and it is the king of all sūtras. Therefore, it should be listened to, obtained, read, and recited.

“Noble one, beings who have not planted roots of merit, who have not ripened their roots of merit, and who have not served many buddhas will not be able to hear this sublime Dharma.

“Noble one, just by hearing this Dharma teaching, noble sons or noble daughters will have a higher motivation and will never be apart from seeing the buddhas. They will never be apart from hearing the sublime Dharma. They will never be apart from honoring the saṅgha. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī of the accomplishment of the unceasing seal of the ocean. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī of engaging in the motivations, conduct, and languages of beings. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī of the shining crest of the sun. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī of accomplishing the suppression of all that arises. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī that is as hard as a vajra and destroys mountains. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī that enters into the teaching of the inexpressible meaning. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī that engages in all languages. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī that applies the seal of the accomplishment of the stainless domain of space. They will never be apart from the dhāraṇī that accomplishes the complete, infinite body of a buddha.

“Son of the devas, through obtaining these dhāraṇīs, the bodhisattvas emanate buddha bodies into the buddha realms in the ten directions and teach the Dharma.
