21.45
“Furthermore, from beginningless time until the present day, we breached walls, blocked roads to plunder, defaulted on debts and interest, failed to pay debts and broke agreements, lying to people's faces contrary to our own hearts and words. Or through unrighteous ways we dispossessed and seized the property of spirits, beasts, and the four modes of birth; or, falsely relying on divination and physiognomy, took people’s wealth and treasures; and so forth, down to seeking profit through profit, evilly seeking, insatiably seeking, never satiated and never content. Transgressions such as these are immeasurable, boundless, and cannot be fully spoken; today, with utmost devotion, before the Buddhas of the ten directions, the Honoured Dharma, and the Noble Assembly, we take refuge and repent.
