大毘盧遮那成佛神變加持經 (Shubhakarasimha & Yixing 724) 7.48

7.48

[This] mantra, identical to the Dharma realm, removes immeasurable

sins,

And before long you will succeed in dwelling in the stage of

nonregression.

To all places of defilement you should apply this letter-gateway,

Red in color, endowed with awesome splendor, and completely

surrounded by a wreath of flames.

Next, in order to vanquish demons and curb great obstacles,

You should recall the vidyā “Unendurable Great Protection.”

The vidyā “Unendurable Great Protection” is: Namaḥ sarvatathāgatebhyaḥ sarvabhayavigatebhyo viśvamukhebhyaḥ, sarvathā haṃ khaṃ rakṣa mahābale sarvatathāgatapuṇyanirjāte hūṃ hūṃ trāṭ trāṭ apratihate svāhā. [272 = 5]

Through the mere recollection [of this mantra] vināyakas

And rākṣasas of evil form will all scatter.

Chapter III

The Worship Ritual

Having thus purified himself with right actions,

[the practitioner] dwells in meditation, visualizing his own

mantra-lord; He invokes him with mantras and seals,

and should first display the samaya. Intercorresponding with the mantra, he removes obstructors,

also using Acala’s wisdom-sword seal. Bowing down and offering up argha water,

the practitioner then offers up seats for the mantra [deities]. Next, he should make offerings of flowers, unguent, and so on

and remove any sully, again with Acalanātha. Warding off [obstacles] and purification are all [done] like this,

and his own mantra-lord is used for empowerment, Or else he visualizes himself surrounded by immeasurable and

innumerable multitudes

of buddhas and sons born of the Jina.

The above are the verses of summary. Below the procedures will be explained individually.

Visualize the letter Ra in front, possessing a dot and extensively

adorned; That is to say, [it has] a wreath of flames with pure light and shines

with the radiance of the morning sun. Thinking on the true meaning of the sound [of the letter Ra], you

will be able to remove all obstacles And be liberated from the sullies of the three poisons; all dharmas

are also thus [free from sully].

First you purify your mind-ground and then purify the ground of the

ritual site.
