地藏菩薩儀軌
中天竺輸婆迦羅奉 詔譯
Translated by Śubhakarasiṃha of Central India by Imperial Decree
爾時釋迦牟尼佛在𭛟羅提耶山，與無量諸地藏菩薩，十俱胝比丘比、丘尼及天龍八部諸鬼神俱，無量百千大眾圍繞而為說法。爾時大眾中有一大士名曰地藏，偏袒右肩右膝著地，合掌恭敬白佛言：「我說神呪，欲利益一切眾生。唯願世尊欲說神呪慈哀聽許。」時佛告地藏菩薩言：「汝等速說，利益一切有情。」
At that time, Shakyamuni Buddha was on Mount Malaya, accompanied by countless Bodhisattvas of the Earth Store, ten koṭis of bhikṣus and bhikṣuṇīs, as well as the eight kinds of gods, dragons, and spirits. Surrounded by an immeasurable multitude of hundreds of thousands, he was expounding the Dharma.
Then, among the great assembly, a great being named Earth Store, with his right shoulder bared and his right knee on the ground, joined his palms respectfully and addressed the Buddha, saying, “I wish to recite a divine mantra for the benefit of all beings. I beseech the World-Honored One to compassionately grant me permission to speak this divine mantra.”
The Buddha then said to Earth Store Bodhisattva, “Speak quickly, for the benefit of all sentient beings.”
爾時地藏菩薩騰虛空讚歎，歸命世尊，在空中亦現無量神通，以神口說呪曰：
At that moment, the Bodhisattva Kṣitigarbha rose into the air, praised the World-Honored One, and bowed in reverence. In the sky, he also displayed immeasurable supernatural powers, and with his divine voice, he spoke the mantra:
「唵闇摩他𭌩摩爾俱苾俱苾三曼多娑婆賀」
次說心呪：
Next, the Heart Mantra is explained:
「唵炎曼他啫娑婆賀」
次心中心呪：
The second heart-mantra:
「唵礘呬(二合)」
纔說此呪，十地等大菩薩失本心迷惑，天龍八部藥叉鬼神驚走倒地，日月星宿失光隱蔽，空雨寶華繽紛，窮劫說呪力不可說盡。
As soon as this mantra was spoken, even great Bodhisattvas of the Tenth Stage lost their ordinary awareness and became bewildered. Celestial dragons, the eight classes of beings, yakshas, and spirits fled in panic, falling to the ground. The sun, moon, and stars lost their light and hid themselves. From the sky, precious flowers rained down in profusion. Even if spoken for countless eons, the power of this mantra could never be fully described.
次說畫像法。作聲聞形像，著袈裟端覆左肩，左手持盈華形，右手施無畏，令坐蓮華。復居座大士像，頂著天冠，著袈裟，左手持蓮華茶，右手如先，令安坐九品蓮臺(傳云：九品者，九重也，亦云八葉中臺也)。
Next, the method for painting the image. For the image of a Śrāvaka, he wears a monastic robe that properly covers the left shoulder. In his left hand, he holds a vessel in the shape of a full flower; his right hand displays the gesture of fearlessness. He is seated on a lotus flower.
For the image of the Great Being, he wears a celestial crown on his head and is clad in a monastic robe. In his left hand, he holds a lotus flower; his right hand is as described earlier. He is seated peacefully on a nine-grade lotus throne(Tradition states: "Nine grades" means nine layers; it is also said to be the central platform within eight petals.).
次說印呪印。二羽三補吒，戒方內掌來去。呪曰：
Next, explain the hand gesture and mantra seal. Bring both hands together in the "three-fingered" gesture, with the palms facing inward and moving back and forth. The mantra is as follows:
「唵炎摩智利娑婆賀」
次說普供養印。二羽三補吒，禪智立來去。
Next, the Universal Offering Mudra is explained. With both hands in the gesture of three-part offering, the thumb and index finger move back and forth.
「唵喃惹摩尼娑嚩賀」
次總說總印。二羽三補吒，進力立來去。呪曰：
First, the general explanation of the overall seal. The two hands form the *samputa* mudra, with the index fingers moving forward and back. The mantra is as follows:
「唵𭌅只儞耶娑嚩(二合)賀」
次請讚印。二羽三補吒，進力來去。次撥遣，以觀手禪進彈。
Next, the Seal of Praise. With both hands in the "three-puṭa" gesture, the strength moves forward and back. Then, the sending off: with the meditative hand, advance and flick.
復說成就法。若念得大福德，持阿迦木護摩七萬遍。若念得五穀成就，以稻實華護摩。若念他人福德，取得其家竈土護摩。若念得高位二德，以比哩華護摩。若念生生世世怨敵伏，以苦練木護摩。若念惡靈邪家伏，以毒味護摩。若念顛狂痾病除愈，蓮實草護摩三萬遍。若念滅罪生善、生身後生極樂，以草護摩三萬遍。若念惡人呪咀還著本人，以苦草投火中護摩三萬遍。若念得無量榮果俸祿，白華鳥草護摩三萬遍。若念三昧辨財德者，以骨婁草護摩三萬遍。若念化度一切眾生令離苦得樂，以白芥子護摩三萬遍。若念化度無佛世界眾生，以尸迦草護摩三七萬遍。若念枯田畠五穀生者，加持古蔓菁，加持散。若愁萬病者，牛膝草護摩三萬遍。若愁三陰四熱種種病，以降乾各門草護摩。若夫妻不和者，比罪草護摩三萬遍和合。若惡友善友相違者，藤葉草護摩三萬遍。若白月八日十四日十五日，以上法修必得成就。
