3.10

“You who are guardians of the world
Should protect with unwavering diligence
The Golden Light, the Supreme King and Lord of Sūtras of those with the ten strengths,

“So that this profound, precious sūtra
That bestows happiness on all beings
Will remain long in this Jambudvīpa
For the sake of the happiness and benefit of beings.

“It will bring an end to all the suffering
Of the beings that are in the hells
And the suffering of the lower existences
In the worlds of this trichiliocosm.

“Within this Jambudvīpa,
May all the kings in Jambudvīpa
With great, perfect joy
Protect their domains through the Dharma.¹⁹¹

“May those who make Jambudvīpa happy
With excellent harvests and joy
Make all beings become happy
Throughout the whole of Jambudvīpa.

“Those who are lords of humans here,
Who delight in their domain and who are happy and joyful,
Who delight in the wealth of sovereignty,
Should listen to this lord of the sūtras.

“The opposing hordes of enemies will come to an end;
This source of goodness will repel enemy armies.
Ruination through the greatest fear will be averted.
This lord of sūtras is the source of goodness.¹⁹²

“A king who wishes for good qualities
Should view this supreme lord of sūtras
As being like a beautiful, precious tree
That is in the home, and the source of all qualities.

“Just as cool water dispels thirst
When¹⁹³ found by someone fatigued by heat,
That is what this supreme king of sūtras is like
For a king who is thirsty for good qualities.

“Like a precious casket in the hands,
Which is a source of every jewel,
That is what this supreme king of sūtras,
The Golden Light, is for the multitudes of kings.

“The devas make offerings to this lord of sūtras.
The lords of the devas pay homage to it.
