佛頂尊勝陀羅尼經教跡義記 1.11

1.11

沙門慧朗等言：伏奉恩勅，令天下僧尼誦持佛頂尊勝真言者，諸佛之心目，蒼生之津梁。陛下受佛付囑，申以法化，慧朗跡在緇門，又叨近侍，愚誠之分，實驚實喜。伏惟　陛下謀協聖慈、陰贊生利，致仁壽之域已在一言，播無疆之休以靖萬國，山川鬼神亦莫不寧，鳥獸魚鼈𠃔將獲祐，僧有將進之路，俗成同善之風，此則陛下超天下之恩，忝承至道為用，豈愚僧日用而知者哉。生植之澤以云深厚，誨誘之德上答何陛。謹附中使元應金，奉表陳謝以聞。誠歡誠喜。謹言。

The monk Huilang and others say: Reverently receiving the gracious edict ordering monks and nuns throughout the realm to chant and uphold the Uṣṇīṣavijayā Mantra, [we recognize that it is] the heart and eyes of all Buddhas and the ferry and bridge for the common people. Your Majesty, having received the entrustment from the Buddha, extends the Dharma transformation. Huilang, whose traces reside in the monastic gate, has furthermore undeservedly served in close attendance; in our share of humble sincerity, we are truly startled and truly joyful. We respectfully reflect that Your Majesty's plans accord with holy compassion and secretly assist in benefiting life; bringing about a realm of benevolence and longevity is accomplished in a single word, and broadcasting boundless felicity brings tranquility to the myriad states. Even the ghosts and spirits of mountains and rivers are none that are not pacified; birds, beasts, fish, and turtles will truly receive protection; monks have a path to advance along, and the laity forms a custom of shared goodness. This is Your Majesty's grace transcending the world, humbly receiving and applying the Supreme Way; how could humble monks understand it through their daily use? The moisture that nurtures living things is already so deep and thick; with what can we respond above to the virtue of Your teaching and guidance? Respectfully entrusting Palace Envoy Yuan Yingjin, we present this memorial expressing our gratitude for Your hearing. With sincere joy and delight, respectfully stated.
