36.15

敬尋釋迦降神羅衛託質王宮。智實生知道惟遍覺。演慧明於百億。注法雨於大千。靈像周於十方。寶塔遍於法界。名香欝馥。似輕雲而散霧。寶華含彩。若倒藕而垂蓮。虔誠供養同趣法筵。叩頭彈指俱霑福利也。

With reverence, we reflect on Śākya descending his spirit into Kapilavastu, entrusting his form to the royal palace. His true wisdom was innate knowledge; his Way was all-pervading awakening. He manifested the brightness of wisdom throughout the hundred millions [of worlds], and poured down the rain of Dharma over the great thousand [world systems]. Numinous images fill the ten directions; jewelled stūpas pervade the realm of phenomena. Exquisite incense is densely fragrant, like light clouds dispersing mist; precious flowers hold vibrant colors, like inverted lotus roots hanging blossoms. Revering them with sincere devotion, all proceed to the Dharma feast; bowing heads and snapping fingers, all partake in blessings and benefits.
