The "Commentary on the Uṣṇīṣa-vijaya-dhāraṇī Sūtra," composed by the early Qing dynasty master monk Xu Fa, is a significant exegesis on the "Uṣṇīṣa-vijaya-dhāraṇī Sūtra." This sutra was transmitted to China during the Tang dynasty, centering on the Uṣṇīṣa-vijaya Dhāraṇī and extolling its supreme merits in purifying karmic obstructions, eliminating transgressions, and cleansing the realms of the deceased. Master Xu Fa's commentary provides a profound exposition of the esoteric meanings within the sutra text and its methods of practice, integrating Huayan and Vajrayāna thought. This commentary holds a lofty position within Chinese Buddhism, serving as an authoritative basis for the study and practice of the Uṣṇīṣa-vijaya method. It has exerted a deep and lasting influence on later practices that blend Pure Land and Vajrayāna traditions.


No. 445-A引
佛教西來,經論東譯,當知大有因緣,非無由而起者。般若藉奘師而弘,華嚴假賢首而闡。尊勝呪經,非文殊大聖不能興起,非波利尊者不能請翻。定覺靜師,敘已詳矣。皇清御極時,雲棲彰上人祥符尊勝幢中,錄斯呪經,募刻未就。今里內張開士佐平,忽覩異光。七月朔,決疑於予。予勸速印施,以廣流傳。古德頌云:波利尊者禮五臺,却被文殊化道言。東土若無尊勝呪,眾生難以脫塵埃。是知呪經,大有益於天下後世者也。予講經律論,餘兼翻密部呪章。細檢尊勝,前後十譯。唐儀鳳元年,波利尊者初來朝禮五臺。儀鳳四年,取經還至西京。一、調露元年,波利與朝散郎杜行顗譯。二、永淳元年,詔命日照三藏與杜行顗共譯。三、光宅元年,波利與順貞奏共譯。四、垂拱三年,志靜與日照三藏宣譯。五、義淨三藏復譯。雖五番重沓,祇是一經。因善住天子七日命終,啟請帝釋,禮佛放光,為說是呪。六、唐三藏不空譯。尊勝念誦儀,即前五中之呪耳。七、宋三藏法天譯,名最勝佛頂陀羅尼經,但呪無文。八、法天三藏重譯,名曰佛說一切如來烏瑟膩沙最勝總持經,文呪俱有。然兩處呪句,較唐多一倍。因釋迦世尊在極樂善法堂,無量壽如來為觀音菩薩說。九、不動上師以此修潤,集入施食儀軌。十、明仁孝皇后夢感佛說第一希有功德經。前之六譯,提擕六道,出三途也。後之四譯,接引四生,登九品也。總之,是呪為生天樂土本矣。今之所行,唐四譯也。依經所說,法益良多。晝夜誦念,感八勝果。香花禮供,具四名稱。病苦者,滅除疾厄。短壽者,增益天年。薄福享用者,現得消受。極惡命終者,出離三途。鳥獸聞聲,更不復墮。風塵映影,證大菩提。一書一持,成二利於善道。一憶一聞,獲十益於佛天。明驗若此,特為流通。正如一寶藏中,取出無盡如意珠寶,散施天下後世眾生。信知開士成就世間以最上第一希有之法,洵有大因緣哉。凡見聞隨喜者,宜依教奉行之。
