The *Bodhiruci (Amoghavajra) Sutra* was translated by the eminent Tang Dynasty monk, Tripitaka Master Amoghavajra. This sutra belongs to the Esoteric (Vajrayāna) section of the canon and describes the form, mantras, and methods of practice for venerating the youth deity, Bodhiruci. The sutra proclaims that reciting this youth deity's mantra can bring worldly benefits such as the dispelling of calamities, increase of merits, and attainment of loving-kindness, as well as supramundane Wisdom (Prajñā). As one of the Three Great Masters of the Kaiyuan era, Tripitaka Master Amoghavajra's translation profoundly influenced the spread of Esoteric Buddhism during the Tang Dynasty. This sutra embodies the characteristics of Esoteric Buddhism, emphasizing ritual practice and worldly salvation. It is an important text for the study of Tang Dynasty Esoteric beliefs and the practices related to youth deities, holding a unique position within the Chinese Esoteric Buddhist tradition.
