爾時文殊師利法王子於大眾中說此陀羅尼已，十方世界一切如來、諸天龍八部、一切大眾咸共讚言：「善哉善哉！文殊師利童真菩薩摩訶薩！汝以大悲願力，於惡世中為欲矜愍薄福有情故，善能演說此不可思議如意摩尼妙法寶藏，饒益有情作無盡福利。」爾時文殊師利告大眾言：「我於過去佛所授得此陀羅尼，每於減劫眾生福盡之處即宣說，令彼惡世善男子善女人、比丘、比丘尼、優婆塞、優婆夷求菩提道，導一切眾生速令成就一切善事，越度生死大苦海故，勸令受持神妙章句。若善男子善女人晝夜精勤常誦此陀羅尼憶念不忘，或但稱讚不思議力，勸化他人令其信受、至心持誦此陀羅尼、行饒益行。是善男子善女人無始已來所有一切五無間等諸惡罪業悉皆消滅，永不沈淪生死大海，永無三塗惡道之怖。隨所生處得宿命智，六根清淨諸相具足，妙色端嚴威德熾盛，所求皆得，先持諸餘真言一切悉皆成就，凡所施為無不殊勝。若能受持此陀羅尼者，先曾毀犯尸羅三業虧失悉得清淨，消除一切破戒罪業，永離惡道常生人天，諸根調柔智惠清淨，一切事中悉得通利，於正法中得深信力，所有言說聞者信受。於怨敵中常得殊勝，一切怨家永息惡心不能相害，一切天龍常隨擁護，任運成就廣大福德，見者賓伏。以我悲願深厚無盡福惠饒益一切眾生，十方如來諸大菩薩之所護念，眾聖加持、誓願力故，一切解脫無不成就。我今復說受持此陀羅尼畫像道場供養儀式。求成就法行者，應先擇願宿曜吉祥之日，畫人受持八戒潔淨，於白緤上或絹素上，畫一髻文殊師利菩薩童子形，金色，半跏坐千葉白蓮花上。左手執青蓮華，華上有如意摩尼寶珠。右手指掌向外垂下，五指作滿願印。熙怡微笑，種種珠鬘頭冠瓔珞莊嚴其身。畫此像已，於一淨室塗拭方壇，從內向外三院布位安置十七尊，具如如五字輪瑜伽法中所說。應以上妙香美餅菓子精誠供養。置此像於壇東面，行者西面向東對像。應取白月八日起首念誦，每日誦前真言八百遍或一千遍，便於像前臥，一心思念我文殊取睡，則於夢中必見文殊作小童子形。若見此相，當知已蒙加被，諸願心成、所求皆得，所說言教人皆信受。又法取蜜哩底藥(此名白胡桝)誦前真言加持八千遍已，口含此藥，若至王宮或百官處，言發嚮應所求皆得，所說言教信受伏從不敢違逆。又法取帝支縛底藥(此名貝多皮陰乾)以前真言加持八千遍，置於鉢中持而乞食，所須飲食衣服乃至金銀七寶須者皆得，眾人愛敬競申供養，一切鬪諍之處皆得勝。又於白月八日，於此文殊師利像前燃燈、食三白食，又以白食及種種白花、燒白檀香供養，誦此真言八千遍。遍數足已，便就像前眠睡。我文殊師利為現其淨妙色身，所願皆得，每日常與一千金錢。不應貯積，總將供供養三寶及修功德。每日誦八百遍，隨力隨分供養，不應間闕。又法以一銀鉢加持一百八遍或八百遍或二十一遍，於文殊師利像前安白練上，又以白練覆蓋其上。經一宿，晨朝手探鉢中，得八百金錢。如上所作諸法當宜密作，更不得使一人知聞，唯除同行願同求此事者親伴一人，必不得向外人說，加被之力當時頓失。功須慎密。若能依教謹慎，日日金錢常供，更無斷施。已上諸法不可總作，但隨意所樂成就一事。仍須先嚴身心，數數飲牛五淨，起慈悲心，晝夜精勤依教無虧，必得現生證上上悉地。心真言曰：
At that time, after the Dharma Prince Mañjuśrī had spoken this dhāraṇī to the great assembly, all the Tathāgatas of the ten directions, the gods, dragons, and eightfold assembly, and all the great multitude unanimously praised him, saying:
"Excellent, excellent! Mañjuśrī, the Youthful Bodhisattva Mahāsattva! With your great compassionate vows and power, for the sake of pitying beings of little merit in this evil age, you have skillfully expounded this inconceivable, wish-fulfilling, wondrous jewel treasury of the Dharma, bringing inexhaustible benefit and welfare to sentient beings."
Then Mañjuśrī addressed the great assembly, saying:
"I received this dhāraṇī from a Buddha in the past. Whenever I encounter a place where, during a kalpa of decline, beings' merit is exhausted, I proclaim it. I do so to guide all good men, good women, bhikṣus, bhikṣuṇīs, upāsakas, and upāsikās in this evil age who seek the path to enlightenment, to swiftly accomplish all wholesome deeds for the sake of leading all beings across the great ocean of the suffering of birth and death. I urge them to receive and uphold these divine and wondrous verses.
"If good men or good women diligently recite this dhāraṇī day and night, constantly remembering it without forgetting, or even just praise its inconceivable power and encourage others to believe, accept, and recite it wholeheartedly, practicing beneficial deeds, then all the evil karma from beginningless time—including the five heinous crimes and others—will be completely eradicated for these good men and women. They will never again sink into the great ocean of birth and death and will be forever free from the fear of the three lower realms.
"Wherever they are reborn, they will obtain the wisdom of remembering past lives. Their six sense faculties will be pure, their features complete, their appearance wondrous and dignified, their majestic virtue blazing. All their wishes will be fulfilled. Any other mantras they previously upheld will all be accomplished. In all their endeavors, nothing will fail to be supremely successful.
"If one can receive and uphold this dhāraṇī, any previous violations of śīla (precepts) or deficiencies in the three karmas (of body, speech, and mind) will be purified. All offenses of breaking precepts will be eliminated. They will forever leave the evil paths and constantly be reborn among humans and gods. Their faculties will be tamed, their wisdom pure. In all matters, they will attain fluency and success. Within the true Dharma, they will gain the power of deep faith. All their words and teachings will be heard and believed.
"Among adversaries, they will always gain supremacy. All enemies will forever cease their malicious intent and be unable to harm them. All gods and dragons will constantly follow and protect them. Effortlessly, they will accomplish vast merit and fortune. Those who see them will submit and revere them.
"Due to my profound and inexhaustible compassionate vows, which bring benefit and enrichment to all beings, and due to the protection and mindfulness of the Tathāgatas of the ten directions and the great bodhisattvas, the empowerment of all sages, and the power of their vows, all liberation will be achieved without exception.
"I will now further explain the ritual procedures for receiving and upholding this dhāraṇī, including creating an image, establishing an altar, and making offerings.
"For practitioners seeking accomplishment, they should first choose an auspicious day according to favorable constellations. The painter should receive and uphold the eight precepts and be pure. On white silk or plain silk, paint an image of the single-tufted Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva in the form of a youth, golden in color, seated in half-lotus posture upon a thousand-petaled white lotus flower. In his left hand, he holds a blue lotus flower, upon which rests a wish-fulfilling jewel. His right hand's palm faces outward, hanging down, with the five fingers forming the 'fulfillment of wishes' mudrā. He wears a gentle smile, adorned with various pearl garlands, a crown, and jeweled ornaments.
"After painting this image, in a pure room, prepare a square altar by cleaning and wiping it. Arrange the positions for seventeen deities in three concentric courts, from the inside out, exactly as described in the Yoga Method of the Five-Syllable Wheel. Offer exquisite incense, fine cakes, and fruits with sincere devotion. Place this image on the eastern side of the altar. The practitioner should face east toward the image from the western side.
"Begin the recitation starting from the eighth day of the waxing moon. Each day, recite the aforementioned mantra eight hundred or one thousand times. Then, lie down before the image, single-mindedly thinking of me, Mañjuśrī, and go to sleep. In the dream, one will certainly see Mañjuśrī appearing in the form of a small youth. Upon seeing this sign, know that one has received empowerment. All wishes of the heart will be accomplished, all sought-after things obtained. All words and teachings one speaks will be believed and accepted by others.
"Another method: Take the medicine called 'Militi' (This refers to white pepper). Recite the aforementioned mantra to empower it eight thousand times. Then, hold this medicine in the mouth. If one goes to a royal palace or to the residences of officials, one's words will resonate and be heeded. All wishes will be fulfilled. All teachings one speaks will be believed, submitted to, and none will dare to disobey.
"Another method: Take the medicine called 'Tizhiwadi' (This refers to dried bark of the Bodhi tree). Empower it with the aforementioned mantra eight thousand times. Place it in a bowl and go on alms round. Whatever is needed—food, drink, clothing, even gold, silver, or the seven treasures—will be obtained. People will cherish and respect one, vying to make offerings. In all places of conflict, one will be victorious.
"Again, on the eighth day of the waxing moon, before this image of Mañjuśrī, light lamps, partake of the three white foods (milk, curd, ghee), and also offer white foods, various white flowers, and burn white sandalwood incense as offerings. Recite this mantra eight thousand times. After completing the recitations, immediately lie down to sleep before the image. I, Mañjuśrī, will manifest my pure and wondrous form-body to them. All their wishes will be fulfilled. Each day, I will provide one thousand gold coins. These should not be hoarded, but entirely used to make offerings to the Three Jewels and cultivate merit.
"Recite eight hundred times daily. Make offerings according to one's ability and means, without interruption.
"Another method: Empower a silver bowl one hundred and eight times, or eight hundred times, or twenty-one times. Place it on a white cloth before the image of Mañjuśrī, and also cover it with a white cloth. After one night, in the morning, reach into the bowl and obtain eight hundred gold coins.
"The aforementioned methods should be performed in secret. Do not let even one other person know or hear of it, except for one companion who shares the same practice and seeks the same goal. One must definitely not speak of it to outsiders, or the empowering force will be instantly lost. One must be careful and secretive.
"If one can follow the teachings with careful diligence, gold coins will be provided daily for constant offerings, without interruption.
"The methods described above should not all be performed together. Choose only one practice according to one's preference to accomplish.
"Furthermore, one must first purify body and mind, frequently drink the five pure products of the cow (milk, curd, ghee, urine, dung), arouse a mind of compassion, and diligently practice day and night according to the teachings without deficiency. One will certainly attain the supreme siddhi (accomplishment) in this very life.
"The Heart Mantra is:"
「唵引娑麼那始哩二合吽娑嚩二合賀」
Om, Samaya, Srisi, Hum, Svaha.
「隨心真言：
The Heart's Intention Mantra:
「唵引阿捨摩𩕳吽娑嚩二合賀」
Om, Ah, Sha, Ma, Ha, Hum, Svaha.
「結壇界真言：
Boundary-Setting Mantra for the Altar:
「唵禰捨摩寧吽引娑嚩二合賀」
Om, Nishe Shamo Ning, Hum Svaha.
「結四方界真言：
Boundary-Setting Mantra:
「唵引三摩難多吉摩寧吽娑嚩二合賀」
Om, Samananta-kṣema-nī, Hūṃ, Svāhā.
「以此真言加持水二十一遍，散於四面，即成結界。若常於文殊師利菩薩前持誦此真言，日日八百遍不闕，日日常得伍百金錢。便須奉施供養三寶，但有隨己分喫用，不得求無義利處違教用之，必不得貯積。應須每日常已種種餅菓供養文殊菩薩，替拔及時分勿令不清淨。及自身衣服極須淨潔，數數洗浴勿令垢穢。若見非法沙門婆羅門，或顏色樵顇或非威儀身形醜陋，必不得輕笑毀謗。以大聖文殊種種化現異類之身，試驗調伏修行人心，欲令常起慈愍普皆平等，於一切有情生珍敬心、無分別心、無染著心、無增愛心廣大無礙，盡當作當來成佛之想。修行者若能如是依教住無分別精勤持誦，所求之願文殊大聖速為滿足，鉢中化變日常盈滿用無窮盡。又法以昌𮑱根用前身真言加持八千返置鉢中，持此鉢入城乞求，所須衣服悉得隨意。又法取安悉香、白檀香、蘇合香此三種香常用供養，於一切處常說燒此香不得間斷，所求願速得滿足。又法取五色線長一尋，誦真言加持一百八遍結作一結，滿二十一結，置線結於鉢中安像前，隨力供養，文殊日日於此鉢中現出上上黃金二十一兩。此金必不得停貯積集，施用修功德、供養三寶用無盡竭，若藏貯積集便即隱沒更不復出。
By reciting this mantra twenty-one times over water and sprinkling it in all four directions, a protective boundary is established. If you regularly recite this mantra before the Bodhisattva Manjushri, eight hundred times daily without fail, you will daily receive five hundred gold coins. These must be offered and used to support the Three Jewels. Use only what you need for your own sustenance, and do not seek to use them for meaningless or improper purposes, nor should you hoard them. Every day, you should offer various cakes and fruits to Manjushri Bodhisattva, ensuring the offerings are timely and pure. Your own clothing should be kept extremely clean, and you should bathe frequently to avoid dirt and impurity.
If you encounter improper monks or Brahmins, or those who appear haggard, lack proper demeanor, or have unattractive forms, you must not mock or slander them. For the great sage Manjushri manifests in various forms and different appearances to test and guide the minds of practitioners, wishing them to constantly cultivate compassion, universal equality, and a mind of reverence for all beings—without discrimination, without attachment, without excessive affection, and with vast, unobstructed understanding. You should regard all beings as future Buddhas.
If practitioners can abide by these teachings, practice without discrimination, and diligently recite the mantra, the great sage Manjushri will swiftly fulfill their wishes. Their alms bowl will transform and remain perpetually full, never exhausting its contents.
Another method: Take a piece of sandalwood root, empower it by reciting the aforementioned mantra eight thousand times, and place it in your alms bowl. Carrying this bowl into the city to beg, you will obtain whatever clothing you need as you wish.
Another method: Take agarwood, white sandalwood, and storax resin. Always offer these three types of incense, burning them continuously in all places without interruption. Your wishes will be quickly fulfilled.
Another method: Take a five-colored thread one arm's length long. Recite the mantra one hundred and eight times to empower it, then tie it into a knot. Repeat until you have twenty-one knots. Place the knotted thread in your alms bowl before the image, and make offerings according to your ability. Manjushri will then manifest twenty-one taels of the finest gold daily in the bowl. This gold must not be stored or accumulated. Use it to perform meritorious deeds and make offerings to the Three Jewels, and it will never be exhausted. If you hoard or accumulate it, it will vanish and not reappear.
「又法有藥名數沙波多那亦名薩沙波(此云白芥子)，又有藥名摩訶弭多(此藥出蜀地)，若有大風大雨霖霔久不晴明者，前件二藥共置一處，用身真言加持此二藥八千遍，擲上虛空中，風雨便止。時若炎旱無雨，取數沙波多那加持八千遍，擲散於有龍水中，便即大雨即下。又法將持此加持藥散大戰陣中，一切刀杖弓箭無堪用者，設用定不傷害。若散置草中或樹林或一切田苗稼中者，悉無虫類能傷損者。若散石窟中或竹林間或粳米及餘五穀田中，便即增多，取之無盡。若散自身頭上，一切鬪諍之處皆得殊勝，若入王宮乃至大臣家諸百官家，悉皆得奉命恭敬。若散商人賈客之中，貨物并無竊盜，凡是賊徒不能侵奪。若散擲四方，一切鬼神、夜叉、羅剎及諸妖魅不能為害。若散失火之處，火便自滅不能燒物。若散水中，則便停流不動。更有眾多餘法，不能盡說。但得前法成就有驗，已後隨自意作者皆成，不勞遍說，決定無疑。此真言有大威德光明不思議力，難可度量，念誦成就者，除不至心。」
"Furthermore, there is a medicinal substance called Shushaboduona, also known as Sashabo(This refers to white mustard seeds), and another medicinal substance named Mahamiduo(This medicine originates from the Shu region). If there are strong winds, heavy rains, or prolonged downpours that do not clear, take these two medicines together and place them in one location. Using the body mantra, empower these two medicines eight thousand times, then toss them into the air—the wind and rain will cease. In times of drought and no rain, take Shushaboduona, empower it eight thousand times, and scatter it into water where dragons dwell—heavy rain will immediately fall.
Another method: take this empowered medicine and scatter it over a battlefield—all swords, staffs, bows, and arrows will become useless, and even if used, they will certainly cause no harm. If scattered in grass, forests, or among crops and seedlings, no insects or pests will be able to cause damage. If scattered in stone caves, bamboo groves, or among rice and other grain fields, the yield will multiply, and harvesting will be endless. If scattered over one's own head, one will achieve victory in all disputes. If entering a royal palace, the homes of high officials, or the residences of all government officials, one will receive respect and obedience.
If scattered among merchants and traders, their goods will not be stolen, and thieves will be unable to seize them. If scattered in all four directions, all ghosts, spirits, yakshas, rakshasas, and various demons will be unable to cause harm. If scattered in a place of fire, the flames will extinguish themselves and be unable to burn anything. If scattered in water, the flow will stop and become still.
There are many other methods, too numerous to fully describe. Once the previous methods are accomplished and proven effective, any subsequent actions performed according to one's own intentions will succeed without the need for exhaustive explanation—this is certain and beyond doubt. This mantra possesses great majestic virtue, radiant light, and inconceivable power, difficult to measure. For those who recite and achieve it, all obstacles vanish—except for those who lack sincere devotion."

In the seventeenth year of the Zhenyuan era, in the third month, the scripture-translating monk passed through again and saw the Sanskrit monk's sealed verification record for inclusion in the canon at the residence of Sa Shijun in Zhongzhou, within the Eight Gorges.
