The Dharma Wheel Precious Repentance of Water and Land for Holy and Ordinary Beings in the Dharma Realm, compiled by the Qing Dynasty monk Zhi Guan, also known as the Water and Land Precious Repentance, is a vital liturgical text for the Water and Land Dharma Assembly in Chinese Buddhism. Based on the Tiantai teachings and contemplation, this work integrates exoteric and esoteric Buddhist methods, systematically standardizing the procedures, altar arrangements, and repentance contents of the Water and Land ceremony. It encompasses the complete set of rituals, including making offerings to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and delivering sentient beings across the six realms. As the core text of the Water and Land Dharma Assembly, it embodies the harmonious and unobstructed practice system of Chinese Buddhism. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, it has exerted widespread influence and remains an important document for the study of Buddhist liturgy and folk beliefs.
