The Buddha said: "If there are illnesses, earth-qi, or when pacifying the homestead and building a house, first recite the mantra three times, burn incense, make offerings, and then dig the earth; there shall be no taboos." The Buddha said: "May all spirits, ghost kings of heaven and earth in the ten directions, the sun, moon, five planets, and twenty-eight lunar lodges all clearly listen." The Buddha said: "Today, on behalf of So-and-so, I inspect and oversee the pacification of the homestead and the building of chambers, the management of gates, wells, and stoves, mortar-mills, grinders, granaries and storehouses, east and west wings, south chamber and north hall, and making pens and enclosures for the six domestic animals. Today I command on behalf of So-and-so: Generals of the Wandering Month-Sha and Five-Earth Spirit Office, spirits of the four seasons—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—Year-Sha, Month-Sha, the Six-Jia taboos, the Twelve Spirits, and the subterranean hidden dragons: each stay peacefully in your place and do not confound east and west! If there is any movement, burn incense and bow down to proclaim: 'The Buddha has an essential decree; do not recklessly interfere! Your heads will split into seven pieces, and your bodies will not remain whole!' You shall not leave your original offices without water and gruel. Urgent mantra, in accordance with the statutes and ordinances!"
