陀羅尼雜集 4.85

4.85

爾時文殊師利法王子從佛受此陀羅尼已，至阿難所在魔眾中作如是言：「諸魔眷屬諦聽我所說大陀羅尼句。」魔王聞已，悉發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心，捨於魔業，即放阿難。聞是持名無不恭敬受持之者，此持過去十恒河沙諸佛世尊所共宣說，能轉女身、自識宿命。當受持五事：一者梵行、二者斷肉、三者斷酒、四者斷五辛、五者樂在寂靜。至心信受書寫讀誦此陀羅尼者，當知是人則得超越七十七億弊惡之身。

Then, having received this dhāraṇī from the Buddha, the Dharma Prince Mañjuśrī went to the host of māras where Ānanda was and spoke these words: 'Host of māras and your retinues, listen attentively to the great dhāraṇī-phrases I proclaim!' Having heard them, the māra kings all gave rise to the aspiration for anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi, abandoned their māra deeds, and immediately released Ānanda. Hearing the name of this dhāraṇī, there is no one who does not reverently receive and hold it. This dhāraṇī was proclaimed in common by past buddhas, World-Honoured Ones equal in number to the sands of ten Ganges Rivers; it can transform a female body, and enables one to know their own past lives. One must observe five practices: first, celibacy (brahmacarya); second, abstaining from meat; third, abstaining from alcohol; fourth, abstaining from the five pungent roots; fifth, taking pleasure in tranquil seclusion. Those who faithfully accept, copy, read, and recite this dhāraṇī with a sincere mind should know that they will transcend seventy-seven billion wretched and evil bodies.
