若有眼根惡　業障說不淨  
但當誦大乘　思念第一義  
是名懺悔眼　盡諸不善業  
耳根聞亂聲　壞亂和合義  
由是起狂亂　猶如癡猨猴  
但當誦大乘　觀法空無相  
永離一切惡　天耳聞十方  
鼻根著諸香　隨染起諸觸  
如此狂惑鼻　隨染生諸塵  
若誦大乘經　觀法如實際  
永離諸惡業　後世不復生  
舌根起五種　惡口不善業  
若欲自調順　應勤修慈心  
思法真寂義　無諸分別相  
心根如猨猴　無有暫停時  
若欲折伏者　當誦大乘經  
念佛大覺身　力無畏所成  
身為機關主　如塵隨風轉  
六賊游戲中　自在無罣礙  
若欲滅此惡　永離諸塵勞  
當處涅槃城　安樂心憺怕  
但當誦大乘　念諸菩薩母  
無量勝方便　從思實相得  
如此等六法　名為六情根  
一切業障海　皆從妄相生  
若欲懺悔者　端坐念實相  
眾罪如霜露　慧日能消除  
是故應志心　懺悔六情根

> 'If there is evil in the eye faculty,  
> Whose karmic hindrance is called impure,  
> One should only recite the Mahāyāna  
> And contemplate the supreme truth.  
> This is called repenting the eye,  
> Exhausting all unwholesome karma.  
> The ear faculty hears disordered sounds,  
> Disrupting the meaning of harmony,  
> From which madness and delusion arise,  
> Just like a foolish monkey.  
> One should only recite the Mahāyāna  
> And contemplate the emptiness and signlessness of dharmas,  
> Permanently leaving behind all evils,  
> With divine ears hearing the ten directions.  
> The nose faculty clings to various scents,  
> Giving rise to various contacts following defilement;  
> Such a wild, deluded nose  
> Generates various defiling dusts following defilement.  
> If one recites the Mahāyāna sūtras  
> And contemplates dharmas as the true limit,  
> One will permanently leave behind all evil karmas,  
> Never to be reborn in future lives.  
> The tongue faculty gives rise to five kinds  
> Of unwholesome karma of malicious speech;  
> If one wishes to tame and harmonize oneself,  
> One should diligently cultivate a mind of loving-kindness,  
> Contemplating the truly quiescent meaning of the Dharma,  
> Free from all conceptual marks.  
> The mind faculty is like a monkey,  
> Having not a moment's pause;  
> If one wishes to subdue it,  
> One should recite the Mahāyāna sūtras,  
> Mindful of the Buddha's body of great awakening,  
> Accomplished by powers and fearlessnesses.  
> The body is the master of the machinery,  
> Turning like dust following the wind;  
> The six thieves play within it,  
> Freely without hindrance.  
> If one wishes to extinguish this evil  
> And permanently leave behind all afflictive dusts,  
> One should dwell in the city of nirvāṇa,  
> At ease, with a tranquil mind.  
> One should only recite the Mahāyāna  
> And be mindful of the mother of all bodhisattvas;  
> Measureless excellent expedient means  
> Are obtained from contemplating the dharmatā.  
> Such six dharmas  
> Are called the six cognitive faculties;  
> The entire ocean of karmic hindrances  
> All arises from false conceptualization.  
> If one wishes to repent,  
> Sit upright and contemplate the dharmatā;  
> Multitudinous offenses are like frost and dew,  
> Which the sun of wisdom can disperse.  
> Therefore, one should with sincere mind  
> Repent the six cognitive faculties.'
