現在賢劫千佛名經 1.45

1.45

"Furthermore, from the beginningless past down to the present day, we have constantly had our minds veiled by avidyā and obstructed by kleśas: seeing images of the Buddha, we were unable to show utmost respect; we despised the Saṅgha, harmed good friends, destroyed stūpas and temples, burned images, and caused the Buddha's body to bleed; or dwelling in splendid halls ourselves, we placed the venerable images in humble and vile spots, exposing them to smoke, scorching sun, wind, rain, dew, grime, dust, and damage from sparrows and mice, sharing lodging and living with them without ever paying homage; or we left images uncovered, never adorning them from the start; or we concealed lamps and candles, or shut hall doors, obstructing the Buddha's radiance. Such transgressions we now confess and repent in full.
