陀羅尼雜集 7.18

7.18

Within one month, abandon all worldly engagements; at the time when the morning star appears, recite it one hundred and twenty times daily, always seeking three things: first, to repent of one's sinful karma since beginningless time; second, to share whatever merit has been cultivated with all sentient beings; third, to constantly vow that the bodhisattvas of the ten directions who have not yet attained true awakening will quickly attain it, and that if they have already attained the Path and wish to enter nirvāṇa, they will remain long in the world. At all times, make mental offerings to all buddhas and bodhisattvas. Furthermore, pay special homage to Āryagarbha (Āryakṣitigarbha) Bodhisattva: wherever you may be, establish your mind to contemplate him; whatever wish you desire, if a severe illness cannot be cured by medicine, you will immediately obtain it as you wish; if you desire to repent, your sins will be eradicated; if you have severe sins, you will immediately obtain the expedient means to eradicate them. Moreover, whatever your heart desires to contemplate, you will immediately obtain the expedient means. If you dream, there will be the robes and appearance of a śramaṇa, manifesting according to what is appropriate to show expedient means. If there are worldly affairs you intend to undertake but you do not know the expedient means, according to your wishes you will be able to obtain the expedient means. If you can practice in this way, you will be able to advance your strength according to your wish among the six perfections and tentatively verify the fruits of the Path. As for this dhāraṇī, if one can maintain purity of body and mind for one month, abandon all entangling conditions, there will be no futile practice; practice will surely bring attainment. If a person for an entire kalpa were to recite the names of other bodhisattvas, it would not equal reciting the name of this bodhisattva and making offerings for a single period, which eradicates all sins and transgressions and obtains all that is wished.
