This is the vimaloṣṇīṣa, the great spell used in the rites for blessing a caitya:

oṁ traiyadhve sarva­tathāgata­hṛdayagarbhe jvala dharmadhātu­garbhe saṃhāraṇa āyuḥ saṃśodhaya¹⁹ pāpaṃ sarva­tathāgata­samantoṣṇīṣavimale viśuddhe svāhā.²⁰

Immediately after he spoke this great spell, all the realms of the world took on the nature of a caitya. If this great spell is written on birch bark, cloth, or other tree bark and affixed to the top of a banner, the banner will become worthy of worship, one that is honored and venerated by all gods, humans, and the like. If this great spell is affixed to someone’s body or neck, gods, humans, asuras, and the like will see that person as a buddha. If one recites this great spell when traversing rugged mountains, forests, isolated places, or other landscapes, all those mountains and landscapes will be like a caitya.

If one recites oṁ traiyadhve sarvatathāgatahṛdayagarbhe jvala dharmadhātu­garbhe saṃhāraṇa²¹ āyuḥ saṃśodhaya pāpaṃ sarva­tathāgata­samantoṣṇīṣavimale viśuddhe mahāvirajera gambhīrasi dharmadhātugarbhe vivisāra a a laṁ svāhā,²² the entire ground will take on the nature of a caitya.

If one utters this great mantra spell when crossing any body of water—such as a river, lake, or ocean—all that water will take on the nature of a caitya. After reciting oṁ traiyadhve sarva­tathāgata­hṛdayagarbhe jvala dharmadhātu­garbhe saṃhāraṇa āyuḥ saṃśodhaya pāpaṃ sarva­tathāgata­samantoṣṇīṣavimale viśuddhe mahā­virajera gambhīrasi dharmadhātu­garbhe vivisāra a māmaki svāhā,²³ all water will take on the nature of a caitya.

Additionally, when one casts this great spell in a way that pervades the whole of space, all of space will also take on the nature of a caitya.
