慈悲道場懺法 1.13

1.13

今日道場同業大眾！不信之罪，眾罪之上，能令行人長不見佛。相與今日各自慷慨折意挫情，生增上心、起慚愧意，稽顙求哀懺悔往罪。業累既盡表裏俱淨，然後運想入歸信門。若不起如是心、運如是意，直恐隔絕障滯難通，一失斯向冥然無返。豈得不人人五體投地如大山崩，一心歸信無復疑想。（某甲）等今日以諸佛菩薩慈悲心力，始蒙覺悟，深生慚愧。若已作之罪願乞除滅，未作之罪不敢復造。從今已去至于菩提，起堅固信不復退轉。（某甲）等捨此身命，若生地獄道、若生餓鬼道、若生畜生道、若生人道、若生天道，於三界中若受男身、若受女身、若受非男非女等身，若大若小、若昇若降，受諸迫惱難堪難忍，誓不以苦故退失今日信心；寧於千劫萬劫受種種苦，誓不以苦故退失今日信心。仰願諸佛大地菩薩同加救護、同加攝受，令（某甲）等信心堅固，等諸佛心、同諸佛願，眾魔外道所不能壞，相與志心等一痛切。五體投地。

Assembly sharing this karmic endeavor in today’s bodhimaṇḍa! The sin of lack of faith stands above all sins; it can cause a practitioner never to see the Buddha for a long time. Today, let us each vigorously humble our minds and curb our emotions, give rise to a superior mind, arouse a sense of shame and conscience, and prostrate with heads to the ground seeking mercy to repent past offenses. Once karmic burdens are exhausted and both interior and exterior are pure, only then can we focus our contemplation and enter the gate of refuge and faith. If we do not give rise to such a mind and direct such an intention, we truly fear that separation and obstruction will make it difficult to pass through, and once this orientation is lost, we will remain in darkness with no return. How could we not each make prostration with the five limbs touching the ground like a great mountain collapsing, single-mindedly taking refuge with faith and no further doubt? Today, through the power of the compassionate mind of the Buddhas and bodhisattvas, [we, so-and-so], have first received awakening and deeply give rise to shame and conscience. May the sins already committed be eliminated, and sins not yet committed we dare not create again. From this day forward until bodhi, we give rise to firm faith and will not backslide. When [we, so-and-so], relinquish this body and life, whether born in the realm of hells, the realm of hungry ghosts, the realm of animals, the realm of humans, or the realm of devas; whether receiving a male body, a female body, or a body that is neither male nor female within the three realms; whether large or small, ascending or descending; enduring all manner of distress and torment, unbearable and unendurable, we vow never to backslide from today’s faith on account of suffering. We would rather endure various sufferings for a thousand kalpas or ten thousand kalpas, and vow never to backslide from today’s faith on account of suffering. We reverently pray that the Buddhas and bodhisattvas of the great stages will jointly grant rescue and protection, jointly embrace us, so that the faith of [us, so-and-so], may become firm, equal to the mind of all Buddhas, identical with the vows of all Buddhas, incapable of being destroyed by any māras or non-Buddhists. Let us together with sincere minds and equal, piercing grief make prostration with the five limbs touching the ground.
