金光明最勝王經疏 4.327

4.327

經　「先應誦持滿一萬八遍為前方便。次於暗室莊嚴道場，黑月一日清淨洗浴，著鮮潔衣燒香散華，種種供養并諸飲食。入道場中，先當稱禮如前所說諸佛菩薩。至心慇重悔先罪已，右膝著地，可誦前呪滿一千八遍，端坐思惟念其所願。日未出時，於道場中食淨黑食，日唯一食，至十五日方出道場。能令此人福德威力不可思議，隨所願求無不圓滿。若不遂意，重入道場。」

Sūtra: "One should first recite and uphold it a full ten thousand and eight times as a preliminary expedient. Next, adorn a ritual site (bodhimaṇḍa) in a dark chamber; on the first day of the dark fortnight, bathe purely, put on fresh, clean clothes, burn incense and scatter flowers, and make various offerings together with food and drink. Entering the ritual site, one should first recite the names of and pay homage to the aforementioned Buddhas and bodhisattvas. Having repented previous transgressions with the utmost sincerity and gravity, kneeling on the right knee, one should recite the preceding mantra a full one thousand and eight times, and sitting upright, contemplate and focus on one's wish. Before sunrise, eat pure black food within the ritual site, eating only once a day, and only leave the ritual site on the fifteenth day. This can cause this person's merit, virtue, and majesty to become inconceivable, and whatever they seek or wish for will be completely fulfilled. If one's wishes are not met, one should enter the ritual site again."
