The *Ritual for Conferring the Bodhisattva Precepts* composed by the eminent Tang dynasty master Zhanran is a vital disciplinary text within the Tiantai school of Chinese Buddhism. This work systematically expounds the standard ritual procedures for conferring the Mahayana Bodhisattva Precepts, detailing the complete process including the arrangement of the precept platform, the protocol for inviting the preceptor, repentance, and the receiving of the precepts. It embodies the essential philosophy of the Tiantai school's perfect and immediate precept system. As a key scripture for the transmission of the Bodhisattva Precepts, it not only provides rigorous ritual standards for later generations but also deepens the integration of precept practice with śamatha-vipaśyanā meditation. It holds supreme authority and practical guiding value within the lineage of Chinese Buddhist precept transmission.
