2.43

「誦呪三遍,縷二色青綠作七結,繫兩乳。此大神呪乃是過去諸佛所說。我今愍念諸眾生故,為令解脫拔濟三界勤苦本故,為欲弘廣佛正法故,普慈眾生猶如慈父。此陀羅尼神力,盡一日月所照之處,四天下中無不賴。此陀羅尼力,能使四海涌沸、須彌山崩碎如微塵,及十寶山、四大海水、江河淮濟入一毛孔,四天下中悉能為之。若諸國土疫病劫起,其王爾時應當精進,七日七夜受持八戒,應當淨心六時行道,為萬民故調伏其心。勅其境內一切人民,以慈悲心勸令行善。其王爾時於宮殿內,然百千燈以救民命,請召十方諸大菩薩、梵釋四天王,三自歸依叩頭求哀。『十方諸佛、大菩薩眾、釋梵四天王諸來大士,救我民命。』如是三說。如是說已,當誦此陀羅尼三七二十一遍。誦此陀羅尼已,王與群臣夫人婇女默然而坐,禪思一心。我大梵天王爾時當與梵眾釋眾、四天大王、諸大龍王、八部鬼神,飲其毒氣悉得消除。王於爾時於禪思中,得見我身大梵天王、釋提桓因、四天大王。以見我故倍復精進,以精進故其國土境舊住鬼神惱人民者,我又當遣四天大王驅令出界。以我大梵天王慈悲力故,其國土境悉得安隱。」

“Recite the spell three times, tie threads of two colors—blue and green—into seven knots, and bind it between the two breasts. This great dhāraṇī spell was spoken by past buddhas. Pitying all living beings now, to liberate them, to pull up the root of toilsome suffering in the three realms, to vastly spread the Buddha's correct Dharma, I am universally compassionate toward living beings like a loving father. The spiritual power of this dhāraṇī extends wherever the sun and moon shine; throughout the four continents, none do not rely on it. By the power of this dhāraṇī, one can cause the four seas to boil, Mount Sumeru to collapse into fine dust, and the ten jewel mountains, the four great ocean waters, the Yangtze, Yellow, Huai, and Ji Rivers to enter into a single pore—throughout the four continents, it can accomplish all of this. If a kalpa of pestilence arises in a realm, the king at that time should be vigorous, upholding the eight precepts for seven days and seven nights; he should purify his mind, practice the path during the six periods, and tame his mind for the sake of the myriad people. He must order all people within his borders, encouraging them with a compassionate mind to practice goodness. The king at that time should light a hundred thousand lamps within his palace to save the lives of the people, summon the great bodhisattvas of the ten directions, Brahmā, Śakra, and the Four Heavenly Kings, and take the three refuges, prostrating and begging for mercy: ‘All buddhas of the ten directions, assemblies of great bodhisattvas, Śakra, Brahmā, the Four Heavenly Kings, and all mahāsattvas who have come, save the lives of my people!’ Speak thus three times. Having spoken thus, recite this dhāraṇī three times seven—twenty-one times. Having recited this dhāraṇī, the king, together with his ministers, queen, and court ladies, should sit silently, single-mindedly absorbed in meditation. I, Mahābrahmā, will then, together with the retinue of Brahmā, the retinue of Śakra, the Four Great Heavenly Kings, the great nāga kings, and the ghosts and spirits of the eight classes, drink their poisonous vapor so that it is completely eradicated. The king at that time, within his meditative concentration, will see my body—Mahābrahmā, Śakra Devānām Indra, and the Four Great Heavenly Kings. Having seen us, he will redouble his vigor; because of his vigor, if there are ghosts and spirits long residing within the borders of his realm that trouble the people, I will furthermore dispatch the Four Great Heavenly Kings to drive them out of the borders. By my, Mahābrahmā's, compassionate power, the borders of his realm will be entirely peaceful.”
