And, similarly, you are Skanda²⁹ the commander,
Vemacitra the lord of asuras,
Mars, Mercury,³⁰ Venus,³¹

Saturn, all the heroic deities,³²
The one to whom all gods paid homage,
Untainted by worldly things.
You are the person supreme in the worlds,

Knower of worlds, realizer of worlds,
Holiest of the wise,³³
Bestower of boons, abode, and refuge,
Beyond the reach of Māra’s works,

Devoid of misdeed, profound,
The renowned spiritual friend.³⁴
You are the physician who removes thorns,
The supreme charioteer of humans to be tamed,

Astute and realized,³⁵
Intelligent and adept,³⁶
You are possessed of merit, the wish-fulfilling tree,
Adorned with the blossoms of the factors of awakening,³⁷

Replete with liberation’s fruit,
The supreme embodied being,³⁸
Lovely and captivating,
Faultless and chaste.

You are the comet and the greatest of heavenly bodies.
You are the seer foremost among sages.
You have been consecrated as crown prince.
Foremost sovereign of the ten bhūmis,

Caravan leader, best of beings,
Revealing supreme nirvāṇa,
You are like the sky, earth, and water.
You are like fire and wind.

You are like a wish-fulfilling jewel,
Fulfilling the hopes of sentient beings.³⁹
O you to whom all living beings⁴⁰ pay homage—
Precious one, we bow to you.⁴¹

Mañjuśrī spoke, saying oṃ vākyedaṃ namaḥ svāhā.
If one retains the names thus spoken
Together with the vidyāmantra,
One accomplishes the purification of one’s sins.

A person who recites, three times a day,
These eight-more-than-a-hundred names
Is certain to attain their many wishes
In just the way they want them.

If they recollect the felicitous names,
Any terrible acts that have been performed
That equal those of immediate retribution
Will be swiftly purified.
