If a bodhisattva, his body adorned with these, displays these banners of great bodhi in all the Tathāgatas’ great assemblies as he passes through all destinies while in \[the cycle of\] birth-and-death, then gods, nāgas, yakṣas, gandharvas, asuras, garuḍas, kiṃnaras, mahoragas, humans, and non-humans will revere him, encircle him, receive his teachings, and practice them. Listen attentively now and consider very carefully as I explain.” When he had finished speaking thus, Vajrapāṇi said, “World-honored One, now is the time! World-honored One, now is the time!” Then the Bhagavān promptly dwelled in the samādhi “Inviolable Strength of the Body,” and while dwelling in this state of meditation he uttered the vidyārājñī of universally unobstructable power, unequaled \[power\], and the power of sama\[ya\] for entry into the samaya of all Tathāgatas: Namaḥ samantabuddhānāṃ, asame trisame samaye svāhā. \[147 = 6\] “Lord of Mysteries, this vidyārājñī manifests the stage of all Tathāgatas, it does not transgress the bounds of the path of the three dharmas, and it perfects the \[ten\] stages and \[six\] pāramitās. The appearance of the mystic seal for this \[vidyārājñī is as follows\]: with the left and right hands form the hollow (saṃpuṭa) hand-clasp \[with a hollow between the palms\] and place the two left and right thumbs together, raised erect. The verse says: This is the great seal of all buddhas, saviors of the world; The samaya of the Perfectly Awakened Ones resides in this seal. “Then make fists with the left and right hands, the thumbs inserted in between the palms, and extend the forefingers: this is the seal for purifying the Dharma realm. The mantra is: Namaḥ samantabuddhānāṃ, dharma- dhātusvabhāvako ’haṃ. \[148 = 7\] “Next, turn the left and right hands over back to back and interlock all five fingers with the tips of the two thumbs both facing each other. The verse says: This is called the excellent seal of the auspicious Dharma wheel; The world-saviors, the support of the world, all turn this wheel. The mantra is: Namaḥ samantabuddhānāṃ, vajrātmako ’haṃ. \[149 = 8\] - [Previous: 3.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.3.54) - [Next: 4.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.4.14) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-mt.4.4) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大毘盧遮那成佛神變加持經 (Śubhakarasiṃha & Yixing 724)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh.4.4) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.4.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.tantra.carya.mahavairocana*zh~en-bdk.4.4) · Pramāṇa
