佛說佛名經 27.14

27.14

"May we disciples, by means of the merit produced through this kṣamā for the retributions of animals and others, vow that in lifetime after lifetime we will eradicate the defilement of foolishness, know our own karmic conditions, illuminate clearly with wisdom, and cut off bodies in the evil destinies. We vow that by the merit produced through this kṣamā for the retributions of hungry ghosts and others, we will in lifetime after lifetime forever leave behind the suffering of stinginess, greed, hunger, and thirst, and constantly feed on the taste of the nectar of liberation. We vow that by the merit produced through this kṣamā for the retributions of spirits, asuras, and others, we will in lifetime after lifetime be upright and without flattery, leave behind the causes of wrong livelihood, eliminate the fruits of ugliness, and bring benefit and blessing to humans and devas. We vow that we disciples, from this day forth until reaching the site of awakening, shall definitely not receive retributions in the four evil destinies, except solely through great compassion for the sake of sentient beings, abiding in them without weariness by the power of our vows."
