7.9
And in the presence of the buddhas of the present age in the ten
directions
I [now] repent of them all, never to commit them again.”
The mantra of the expedient means for expiating sins is: Oṃ sarva-
pāpasphoṭadahanavajrāya svāhā. (Oṃ, for you who like a vajra burst asun-
der and burn all sins, svāhā!) [259]
“Homage to the buddhas of the ten directions and three ages with
their three kinds of eternal bodies, to the treasury of the Right
Dharma,
And to the multitude [possessing] the excellent great mind of bodhi—
I now duly take refuge in them all.”
The mantra of the expedient means for taking refuge is: Oṃ sarvabuddhabodhisattvān śaraṇaṃ gacchāmi vajradharma hrīḥ. (Oṃ, I take refuge in all buddhas and bodhisattvas. Adamantine Dharma, hrīḥ!) [260]
“This body, free from sullies, which I have purified,
together with bodies, speech, and minds of the three ages,
More numerous than an ocean of dust motes of [countless buddha]
fields,
I offer up to all Tathāgatas.”
The mantra of the expedient means for offering one’s body is: Oṃ sarvatathāgatapūjāpravartanāyātmānaṃ niryātayāmi sarvatathāgatāś cādhitiṣṭhantā[ṃ] sarvatathāgatajñānaṃ me āviśatu. (Oṃ, I offer myself for the incitement of worship of all Tathāgatas. May all Tathāgatas empower [me], and may the knowledge of all Tathāgatas enter upon me!) [261]
“The excellent jewel of the pure bodhi-mind
I now generate to save living beings
Entangled in the aggregations of the sufferings of birth and so on,
and their bodies hurt by ignorance;
Their savior, refuge, and liberator,
may I always bring benefit to sentient beings.”
The mantra of the expedient means for generating the bodhi-mind is: Oṃ bodhicittam utpādayāmi. (Oṃ, I generate the mind of awakening.) [262]
There are some additional phrases, which say: “The bodhi-mind is dissociated from all things; that is to say, the [five] aggregates, [eighteen] elements, [twelve] sense fields, grasper, and grasped having been abandoned, dharmas are without self and one’s own mind is equal [with them] and originally unborn, its own-nature like great emptiness. Just as the World-honored Buddhas and bodhisattvas generated the bodhi-mind up to the site of bodhi, so too do I thus generate the bodhi-mind.” <These additional phrases are like a mantra, and one should recite the Sanskrit text.>144
“In the power of the various skilled expedient means
of the oceanlike multitudes of Perfectly All-knowing Ones
Throughout immeasurable world-systems in the ten directions,
and in all the meritorious actions cultivated
