6.17

"Eighth, on the Bodhisattva fast day, all who uphold this fast obtain merit through sharing gifts and giving. On the Bodhisattva fast day, when retiring to sleep, one clasps the hands before the Buddha and says: 'Today, all in the ten directions who uphold the fasting precepts and practice the six pāramitās—I assist them all in immeasurable peace, encourage and rejoice in them, and bestow the merit upon all humans, non-humans, and so forth in the ten directions. Wherever there are places of distress and hardship, may all obtain merit, be liberated from anxiety and suffering, be reborn as humans, and enjoy limitless peace, wealth, and joy.'
