1.65

景命好日。月旦。月望。初八。廿三。四齋日。隔宿堂司行者報眾。掛諷經牌。次早鐘絕。後鳴僧堂前鐘。集眾登殿。維那舉楞嚴呪。唱藥師號。嘆佛畢。回向云（某日令辰。某州某寺住持傳法某僧某。謹集合山僧眾。恭趨寶殿。諷誦大佛頂萬行首楞嚴神呪。稱揚聖號。所萃洪因。祝延今上皇帝聖壽萬安。金剛無量壽佛仁王菩薩云云）。

On the auspicious days of the bright mandate—the first of the month, the full moon, the eighth, and the twenty-third, being the four fasting days—on the preceding evening the hall office postulant notifies the assembly and hangs the sūtra-chanting plaque. The next morning, when the great bell ceases, the bell before the Sangha hall is struck afterwards, gathering the assembly to ascend the hall. The karmadāna leads the Śūraṅgama Mantra, chants the name of Bhaiṣajyaguru, and concludes the praise of the Buddha. The transference of merit says: ("On this auspicious day of such-and-such date, I, the monk so-and-so, abbot and Dharma transmitter of such-and-such monastery in such-and-such prefecture, reverently gather the saṅgha of the entire mountain, respectfully hasten to the precious hall, chant the Divine Mantra of the Great Buddha's Summit of Ten Thousand Practices of the Śūraṅgama, and proclaim the sacred names. May the vast causes thereby gathered be dedicated to extending the sacred life of the present Emperor in myriad serenities. Vajra Amitāyus Buddha, Benevolent King Bodhisattva, and so forth.")
