慈悲道場懺法 7.26

7.26

提頭賴吒四天王，慈心擁護受持經，
令聞慈悲名號者，猶如天子法臣護。
又勅海龍伊鉢羅，慈心擁護受持經，
如護眼目愛己子，晝夜六時不遠離。
又勅閻婆羅剎子，無數毒龍及龍女，
慈心擁護持經者，如愛頂腦不敢觸。
又勅毘留勒迦王，慈心擁護持經者，
如母愛子心無厭，晝夜擁護行住俱。
又勅難陀跋難陀，娑伽羅王優波陀，
慈心擁護持經者，恭敬供養接足禮，
猶如諸天奉帝釋，亦如孝子敬父母。
慈悲道場施安樂，教諸眾生結法親，
後生佛前入三昧，畢定當得不退轉。
若聞諸佛名號者，又聞無邊觀世音，
消除三障無諸惡，五眼具足成菩提。
諸天神王念一切，恒加勸獎助威神。

Dhṛtarāṣṭra and the Four Heavenly Kings, / with compassionate minds protect those who uphold the sūtra, / causing those who hear the names of compassion and loving-kindness / to be protected like a prince by his Dharma ministers. / He also commanded the sea dragon Elāpatra, / with a compassionate mind to protect those who uphold the sūtra, / like guarding his own eyes or cherishing his own child, / never departing during the six periods of the day and night. / He also commanded the rākṣasa children of the Yamas, / and countless venomous nāgas and nāgīs, / with compassionate minds to protect those who uphold the sūtra, / cherishing them like the crown of their heads, not daring to harm them. / He also commanded King Virūḍhaka, / with a compassionate mind to protect those who uphold the sūtra, / like a mother loving her child with untiring affection, / protecting them day and night whether walking or resting. / He also commanded Nanda and Upananda, / Sāgara and Upada, / with compassionate minds to protect those who uphold the sūtra, / revering, making offerings to, and bowing at their feet, / just as all devas attend upon Śakra, / and filial children venerate their parents. / The Bodhimaṇḍa of Compassion bestows peace and bliss, / teaching all sentient beings to form bonds of Dharma kinship; / later born before the Buddha, they will enter samādhi, / and will certainly attain non-retrogression. / If one hears the names of all the Buddhas, / and also hears of Ananta[kāya] and Avalokiteśvara, / the three obstacles will be eliminated without any evils, / and fully endowed with the five eyes, one will realize bodhi. / All divine heavenly kings are mindful of all beings, / constantly providing encouragement and adding their mighty spiritual power.
