Om Amitabha, protect the Sangha, Hum.

"Good man! This mantra of true speech is the very foundation of the complete, ultimate wisdom and the twelve kinds of emptiness-vows of all past, present, and future Buddhas and Tathagatas. If my disciples wish to benefit the Three Realms and help both humans and gods, they should copy this sutra, uphold it, recite it, and study it. Doing so will increase happiness and good fortune, enhance wisdom and eloquence, extend life and strengthen health, eliminate karmic obstructions and cure all illnesses, and foster loving-kindness. They will lack nothing in virtue and goodness. How much more so for those who sincerely copy and recite it — they will transcend the three phases of birth and death, transforming the burning house of the Three Realms, and through their recitation they will be reborn in the Land of Ultimate Bliss, joining the assembly of the nine grades of the Pure Land."

Then the entire assembly, hearing what the Buddha had said, rejoiced greatly, and faithfully accepted and put it into practice.
