The Sutra of the Flower-Heap Dhāraṇī Divine Mantra Spoken by the Buddha Translated by the scripture translator Zhi Qian during the Three Kingdoms period, this sutra belongs to the early esoteric Buddhist canon. Centered on the dhāraṇī divine mantra, it emphasizes the merits and benefits of reciting the mantra, which can remove obstacles, dispel calamities, purify karma, and increase blessings. The sutra introduces the majestic spiritual power of the Bodhisattva Flower-Heap and the practice methods of the divine mantra, reflecting the initial rise of mantra faith within Mahāyāna Buddhism. It holds significant historical importance in the development of Chinese esoteric Buddhism and is one of the key texts for studying early Buddhist mantras and ritual practices.
