"Great King! If there are kings in future ages who accept and uphold the Three Jewels, I will send five great powerful bodhisattvas to go and protect their states: first, Bodhisattva Vajraruta (Diamond Roar), holding a wheel marked with a thousand jewels in his hand, goes to protect that state; second, Bodhisattva Nāgarājaruta (Dragon King Roar), holding a golden-wheel lamp in his hand, goes to protect that state; third, Bodhisattva Abhayadaśabalaruta (Fearless Ten-Powers Roar), holding a vajra pestle in his hand, goes to protect that state; fourth, Bodhisattva Vidyutprabharuta (Lightning Roar), holding a net of a thousand jewels in his hand, goes to protect that state; fifth, Bodhisattva Amitabalaprabharuta (Immeasurable Power Roar), holding five thousand sword-wheels in his hand, goes to protect that state. These five great beings and five thousand great ghost and spirit kings will bring great benefit to your country; you should erect images and make offerings to them."
