往生极乐净土愿文

by Karma Chagmé

噶玛恰美撰

This is the treasury of Karma Chagme’s practice.
I have written it with the work of my own hand.
I think it might benefit quite a few beings.
If you don’t want to copy it, borrow it.

此为噶玛恰美的实修宝藏，
由我亲手书写。
我想，它或能利益不少众生。
若不愿抄写，就借去吧。

There is nothing more beneficial than this.
There are no instructions more profound than this.
It is the root of my dharma.
Don’t cast it aside; strive in its practice.
As this is of the sutra tradition, it is appropriate
To recite it even if you have not received the transmission.

没有比这更有益的，
没有比这更甚深的教授。
这是我佛法的根本，
不要弃置，应努力修持。
因属经教传统，
即使未受传承，念诵也相宜。

Emaho! In the direction of the setting sun from here,
Past innumerable worlds,
And slightly elevated above us,
Is the pure realm of Sukhavati.
Although I do not see it with my fluid-filled eye,
It is vividly clear in my mind.

Emaho！从此向日落的方向，
越过无数世界，
在略高于我们之处，
有极乐净土。
虽然以充满液体的肉眼不能看见，
心中却鲜明清晰。

There resides the bhagavat Amitabha.
The color of ruby, he blazes with majesty.
He is adorned by the thirty-two good marks and the eighty signs, Such as the ushnisha on his head and the wheels on his feet.
He has one face and two hands, and holds an alms bowl in meditation.

彼处安住薄伽梵阿弥陀佛，
身如红宝石，威光炽盛，
以三十二相、八十种好庄严，
如顶上肉髻、足下轮相。
一面二臂，结禅定印持钵。

Wearing the three dharma robes, he is seated in vajra posture
On a thousand-petaled lotus and a moon disc seat.
His back is supported by a bodhi tree.
He gazes upon me from a distance with compassionate eyes.

身着三法衣，金刚跏趺而坐，
安住千瓣莲花与月轮座上，
背倚菩提树，
以悲悯双眼，遥望于我。

On his right is the bodhisattva Avalokita.
He is white and holds a white lotus in his left hand.
On Amitabha’s left is the bodhisattva Mahasthamprapta.
He is blue and holds in his left hand a lotus with a vajra on it.
The right hands of them both display to me the mudra of giving protection.
These three principals are like Mount Meru,
Vivid, distinct, and brilliant.
Their retinue is a trillion bodhisattva bhikshus.
All of them are golden in color and adorned by the marks and signs.

右边是观世音菩萨，
身白色，左手持白莲花；
阿弥陀佛左边是大势至菩萨，
身蓝色，左手持莲，莲上有金刚杵。
二者右手，皆向我示施护佑印。
此三主尊，如须弥山，
鲜明、分明、光辉灿烂。
眷属为一万亿菩萨比丘，
身皆金色，相好庄严。

Wearing the three dharma robes, they fill the realm with yellow.
As there is no difference between near and far for devoted prostration,
I devotedly prostrate to you with my three gates.

身着三法衣，黄色遍满彼刹。
虔敬顶礼不分远近，
我以三门虔诚顶礼。

The dharmakaya Amitabha is the lord of the family.
The light-rays of his right hand emanate Avalokita
And a billion further emanations of Avalokita.
The light-rays of his left hand emanate Tara
And a billion further emanations ofTara.

法身阿弥陀佛，是部族之主。
右手光芒化现观世音，
及十亿观世音化身；
左手光芒化现度母，
及十亿度母化身。

The light-rays of his heart emanate Padmakara
And a billion further emanations of Padmakara.
I prostrate to the dharmakaya Amitabha.
Buddha, you kindly and constantly regard
All beings throughout the six times of day and night.
You always know what thoughts
Are moving through the mind of every being.
You always hear distinctly
The words spoken by every being.
I prostrate to the omniscient Amitabha.

心间光芒化现莲花生，
及十亿莲花生化身。
我顶礼法身阿弥陀佛。
佛陀，您于昼夜六时，
恒常慈悲观照一切众生，
始终了知每个众生心中，
正在活动的念头，
始终清楚听见，
每个众生所说的话语。
我顶礼遍知阿弥陀佛。

It is said that, other than those who have rejected dharma
Or done any of the five worst actions, all with faith in you
Who make the aspiration to be born in Sukhavati will fulfill that aspiration.
You will appear in the bardo and lead them to your realm.
I prostrate to the guide Amitabha.

据说，除了舍弃正法，
或造五无间罪者，凡信仰您、
发愿往生极乐世界者，皆能成愿。
您将在中阴显现，引领他们前往您的净土。
我顶礼导师阿弥陀佛。

For the length of your life, innumerable kalpas,
You will not pass into nirvana.
You abide manifestly now.
It is said that anyone who prays to you with one-pointed devotion, Even if their life is exhausted,
Unless that is caused by the ripening of karma,
Will live a hundred years.
You will avert all untimely death.
I prostrate to the protector Amitayu.

在您无量劫的寿量中，
不入涅槃，
如今仍鲜明安住。
据说，任何人以专一虔敬向您祈请，
即使寿命已尽，
只要并非业力成熟所致，
也会活到百岁。
您会遣除一切横死。
我顶礼怙主无量寿佛。

It is said that there is greater merit
In hearing of Amitabha’s name and Sukhavati
And joining one’s palms with faith
Than in filling countless billion-world realms
With jewels and giving them in generosity.
I therefore prostrate to Amitabha with devotion.
Anyone who, hearing Amitabha’s name,
Sincerely gives rise to faith
From the depths of their heart even once,
Cannot be turned back from the path of awakening.
I prostrate to the protector Amitabha.

据说，听闻阿弥陀佛名及极乐世界，
以信心合掌，
其福德胜过以珍宝，
充满无数十亿世界的刹土，
再行布施。
因此，我虔敬顶礼阿弥陀佛。
任何人听闻阿弥陀佛名，
从心深处，
哪怕一次，真诚生起信心，
就不会从菩提道退转。
我顶礼怙主阿弥陀佛。

Having heard the name of the buddha Amitabha,
Until one reaches the essence of awakening,
One will not be born as a woman without power.
One will be born of good family.
In every birth one’s morality will be pure.
I prostrate to the sugata Amitabha.

听闻阿弥陀佛名之后，
直至达到菩提心要，
不会投生为无自主权的女人，
将生于良善之家，
生生世世，戒行清净。
我顶礼善逝阿弥陀佛。

I offer my body, possessions, and roots of virtue;
Whatever actually prepared offerings there are;
Mentally emanated auspicious substances and signs, and the seven jewels;
The pre-existing billion worlds with their billion sets
Of four continents, Mount Meru, the sun, and the moon;
And all the luxuries of devas, nagas, and humans.
Bringing all these to mind, I offer them to Amitabha.
For my benefit, accept them through your compassion.
I confess all the wrongdoing I and all beings, my parents included,
Have done throughout beginningless time up to now,
Such as killing, stealing, and fornication:
I admit and confess the three wrongdoings of body.

我供养自身、财物与善根，
一切实际备妥的供品，
意幻的吉祥物、吉祥徽相及七宝，
本已存在的十亿世界，及其中十亿组，
四大部洲、须弥山、日月，
以及天、龙、人类的一切受用。
心中忆持所有这些，供养阿弥陀佛。
为利益我，请以悲心纳受。
我与父母在内的一切众生，
从无始至今所造一切恶业，
例如杀生、偷盗、邪淫，
我发露忏悔身三不善。

Lying, calumny, harsh words, and gossip:
I admit and confess the four wrongdoings of speech.
Covetousness, malice, and wrong views:
I admit and confess the three wrongdoings of mind.
The killing of one’s father, mother, acharya, or an arhat;
And the shedding of a buddha’s blood with malicious intent:
I admit and confess the five worst actions.
Killing a bhikshu or shramanera, seducing a nun,
And destroying images, stupas, or temples:
I admit and confess the nearly worst actions.

妄语、两舌、恶口、绮语，
我发露忏悔语四不善。
贪欲、害心与邪见，
我发露忏悔意三不善。
杀父、杀母、杀阿阇黎、杀阿罗汉，
以及恶意出佛身血，
我发露忏悔五无间罪。
杀比丘、沙弥，诱污尼众，
毁坏佛像、佛塔与寺院，
我发露忏悔近无间罪。

Swearing by the three jewels, temples, scriptures,
Or the three supports, and swearing by them falsely:
I admit and confess the wrongdoing of rejecting dharma.
Worse than killing all beings in the three realms
Is the denigration of bodhisattvas.
I admit and confess pointless great wrongdoing.

以三宝、寺院、经典，
或三所依起誓，并以之发虚誓，
我发露忏悔舍法罪。
毁谤菩萨，
比杀害三界一切众生更重，
我发露忏悔无义大罪。

Thinking that the benefits of virtue, the harm from wrongdoing,
And the suffering and lifespan in hell are untrue, mere sayings,
Is worse than the five worst actions.
I admit and confess the wrongdoing from which it is hard to be freed.

认为善的利益、恶的危害，
以及地狱痛苦与寿量，都不真实、只是说说，
其罪胜过五无间罪，
我发露忏悔难以脱离的罪业。

The four defeats, the thirteen remainders, the downfalls,
The confessables, and the misdemeanors—the five classes:
I admit and confess impairments of the pratimoksha morality.
The four negativities; and the five, five, and eight downfalls:
I admit and confess impairments of the bodhisattva training.
The fourteen root downfalls and the eight major branches:
I admit and confess impairments of secret mantra samaya.

四他胜、十三僧残、堕罪，
向彼悔与恶作，这五类罪，
我发露忏悔别解脱戒的损坏。
四黑法，以及五、五、八种堕罪，
我发露忏悔菩萨学处的损坏。
十四根本堕罪与八大支分，
我发露忏悔密咒三昧耶的损坏。

The wrongdoing done when not under vows,
Such as fornication and drinking alcohol,
Actions that are naturally unwholesome:
I admit and confess unwitting wrongdoing.
Although I have taken the vow of refuge and empowerments,
I admit and confess downfalls of commitment through
Not knowing how to keep the vows and samaya they entail.

未受戒时所造罪业，
例如邪淫与饮酒，
本性不善的行为，
我发露忏悔无知中所造恶业。
虽受皈依戒与灌顶，
却不知如何守护其中戒律与三昧耶，
我发露忏悔违诺之堕罪。

Without regret, confession will not purify.
I confess all past wrongdoing with great shame, fear, and regret,
As though I had swallowed poison.

没有悔意，忏悔便不能净化。
我以极大的惭愧、畏惧与悔恨，忏悔过去一切恶业，
如同吞下毒药。

If there is no commitment henceforth, there will be no purification.
From now onward, even at the risk of my life,
I vow not to engage in wrongdoing.
Sugata Amitabha and your bodhisattvas,
Grant your blessings that my being be purified.

若无今后不犯的誓愿，亦不能净化。
从今以后，即使面临性命危险，
也誓不造恶。
善逝阿弥陀佛及诸菩萨，
祈赐加持，令我身心净化。

If, when one hears of another’s virtue,
One is without the negativity of jealousy,
And rejoices from one’s heart,
It is said that one will gain equal merit.

听到他人的善行时，
若无嫉妒之恶，
从心中随喜，
据说可得同等福德。

I therefore rejoice in all the virtuous deeds
Of aryas and ordinary beings.
I rejoice in their generation of bodhicitta
And their vast benefit for beings.

因此，我随喜圣者与凡夫，
所作一切善行，
随喜他们发菩提心，
以及广大利益众生。

The ten virtues that are the opposites of the ten wrongdoings—
Saving others’ lives, giving generously,
Chastity, speaking truthfully,
Healing discord, speaking gently and straightforwardly,
Conversing meaningfully, having little desire,
Cultivating love and compassion, and practicing dharma:
I rejoice in those virtuous actions.
All you who have recently attained
Perfect buddhahood in any of the
Numberless realms in the ten directions:
I urge you to soon turn the vast dharmachakra.

与十不善相反的十善，
即救护生命、慷慨布施，
守持贞洁、说真实语，
调和纷争、言语柔和正直，
谈论有意义之事、少欲，
修习慈悲、修持佛法，
这些善行，我皆随喜。
十方无量刹土中，
所有新近成就，
圆满佛果的诸位，
我劝请您们，速转广大法轮。

I pray that you hear me with your clairvoyance.
All buddhas, bodhisattvas, holders of dharma,
And spiritual friends who wish to pass into nirvana:
I pray that you not do so, but remain.

祈请以神通听见我。
一切诸佛、菩萨、持法者，
以及欲入涅槃的善知识，
我祈请您们不入涅槃，继续住世。

I dedicate this and all my virtue of the three times
To the benefit of all beings. May they all
Quickly attain unsurpassable awakening,
And empty samsara’s three realms from their depths.

我将此善及三时一切善业，
回向一切众生利益。愿他们都，
速证无上菩提，
从根本穷尽三界轮回。

May this virtue quickly ripen in me.
In this life, may the eighteen untimely deaths be prevented.
May I be healthy and as vigorous as a youth.
May my wealth be as inexhaustible as the Ganges in summer.

愿此善业速在我身成熟。
此生遣除十八横死，
愿我健康，精力如少年，
财富如夏日恒河，取之不尽。

Unharmed by maras or enemies, may I practice genuine dharma.
May all my wishes be fulfilled in accord with dharma and my intentions.
May I accomplish vast benefit for dharma and beings.
May my human body be meaningful.

不为魔与怨敌所害，愿修真实正法。
愿一切心愿，如法、如意成就。
愿成办法与众生的广大利益，
愿此人身具有意义。

May I and all connected to me,
As soon as we pass from this life,
Actually see in front of us
The emanated buddha Amitabha
Surrounded by his sangha of bodhisattvas.
Seeing them, may we feel joy.
May we be without suffering at death.
May the eight bodhisattvas
Appear miraculously in the sky.
May they show me the way
And lead me to Sukhavati.

愿我与一切结缘者，
一离开此生，
便真实看见，
阿弥陀佛化身，
由菩萨僧众围绕，现于面前。
见到他们，愿心欢喜，
愿临终没有痛苦。
愿八大菩萨，
神变现于空中，
为我指路，
引我前往极乐世界。

The suffering in lower states is unbearable.
The pleasures of devas and humans are impermanent.
May I be afraid of this.
Throughout beginningless time up to now,
Samsara has lasted for a very long time.
May I feel sorrow about this.

恶趣痛苦难以忍受，
天人安乐无常，
愿我对此生起畏惧。
无始至今，
轮回已经持续极为漫长，
愿我对此心生悲厌。

I might be born repeatedly as a human being, but I would
Experience birth, ageing, sickness, and death countless times.
There are many obstacles in this degenerate time.
The pleasures of humans and devas
Are like food mixed with poison.
May I have not so much as a hair’s worth of desire for them.

虽可一再投生为人，
却会无数次经历生老病死。
浊世障碍众多，
人天安乐，
犹如掺毒食物，
愿我对此没有丝毫欲求。

My family, food, wealth, and friends
Are impermanent, like illusions or dreams.
May I have not so much as a hair’s worth of attachment to them.
My land, my vicinity, and my home
Are just like one’s home in a dream.
May I know them to be unreal.

家人、饮食、财富与朋友，
无常如幻梦，
愿我对此没有丝毫贪著。
故土、邻里与住所，
如同梦中的家，
愿我了知其不真实。

May I flee the ocean of samsara, from which it is so hard to get free,
Like a felon escaping from prison.
May I flee to the realm of Sukhavati
Without looking back.
Having severed all craving and clinging,
May I fly through the western sky
Like a vulture freed from a snare,
Passing countless worlds in an instant,
And reach Sukhavati.

愿我如逃出监狱的重犯，
逃离难脱的轮回海，
奔赴极乐世界，
不再回头。
断除一切渴爱与执著，
愿如挣脱罗网的秃鹫，
飞向西方天空，
刹那越过无量世界，
到达极乐净土。

May I see the face of Amitabha,
Who is actually present there.
May all my obscurations be purified.

愿我见到真实安住彼处的，
阿弥陀佛尊颜，
净除一切障垢。

The best of the four births is instantaneous
Birth in the heart of a lotus flower.
May I take such a birth.
My body complete in an instant,
May it have the marks and signs.

四生之中最殊胜者，
是在莲花心中刹那化生，
愿我如此出生。
身形刹那圆满，
愿具一切相好。

Doubt as to whether or not I will be born there
Would cause me to remain in the lotus for five hundred years.
I would be happy and comfortable,
And would hear the buddha’s speech,
But because of the flower not opening
My seeing the buddha’s face would be delayed.
May that not happen to me.

怀疑自己能否往生彼处，
会令我留在莲花中五百年。
虽然幸福安乐，
也能听闻佛语，
但因莲花不开，
见佛尊颜便遭延迟。
愿此不发生于我。

As soon as I am born, may my flower open.
May I see Amitabha’s face.
Through merit and miraculous powers,
May vast clouds of offerings
Emanate from my palms.
May I present them to the buddha and his entourage.

愿一出生，莲花即开，
见阿弥陀佛尊颜。
以福德与神变力，
从我掌中，
化出广大供云，
愿供佛与眷属。

At that time, may that tathagata extend
His right hand and place it on my head.
May I receive prophecy of my awakening.
Having heard profound and vast dharma,
May my being be ripened and liberated.
May I be blessed and cared for by
The two foremost bodhisattvas,
Avalokita and Mahasthamprapta.

彼时，愿如来伸出右手，
置于我顶，
授予成佛之记。
听闻甚深广大佛法后，
愿我身心成熟解脱。
愿得两位上首菩萨，
观世音与大势至，
加持摄受。

Every day, innumerable buddhas and bodhisattvas
Gather from the ten directions in order to
Present offerings to Amitabha
And view that realm. At that time,
May I attend them and receive
The amrita of dharma.

每天，无量诸佛菩萨，
从十方聚集，
为向阿弥陀佛供养，
并观看彼刹。那时，
愿我亲近侍奉，
领受正法甘露。

With unimpeded miraculous powers,
May I go to the realms of Joyous, Glorious,
Perfect Action, and Densely Arrayed.
Going there in the morning, may I receive
Empowerment, blessings, and vows from
Akshobhya, Ratnasambhava, Amoghasiddhi,
Vairochana, and other buddhas.
Having presented many offerings,
May I return without difficulty
To Sukhavati in the evening.

以无碍神通，
愿前往妙喜、具德，
事业圆满与密严刹土。
早晨前往，从阿閦、宝生，
不空成就、毗卢遮那，
及其他诸佛处，
领受灌顶、加持与戒律。
献上众多供养之后，
愿于傍晚毫无困难地，
返回极乐世界。

In Potala, Alakavati,
Chamaradvipa, and Uddiyana;
In a billion nirmanakaya realms,
May I meet a billion Avalokitas, Taras,
Vajrapanis, and Padmakaras.
May I present oceans of offerings to them
And receive empowerment and profound instructions.
May I quickly then return unimpeded
To my own residence in Sukhavati.

于普陀、阿拉迦，
罗刹洲与乌仗那，
十亿化身刹土中，
愿遇十亿观世音、度母，
金刚手与莲花生，
献如海供养，
领受灌顶与甚深教授。
随后，愿迅速无碍，
返回极乐世界自己的住处。

May I see with the divine eye
My surviving family, monks, and disciples.
May I protect and bless them,
And lead them to that realm at death.

愿以天眼，看见仍在世的，
家人、僧众与弟子，
保护、加持他们，
死时引往彼刹。

The duration of this fortunate kalpa
Is one day in Sukhavati.
Throughout countless kalpas, there is no death.
May I always remain in that realm.

此贤劫之长，
仅为极乐一日。
无数劫中，没有死亡，
愿我常住彼刹。

From Maitreya up to Rochana, when all the buddhas
Of this fortunate kalpa come to this world,
May I come here with miraculous powers,
Present offerings to those buddhas,
Listen to the genuine dharma,
And return unimpeded
To the realm of Sukhavati.

从弥勒直到楼至，
此贤劫一切诸佛来此世间时，
愿我以神变来到此处，
向彼诸佛献供，
听闻真实正法，
然后无碍返回，
极乐世界。

All the features and attributes of the realms
Of eighty-one septillion buddhas are combined
In that realm that is superior to all others.
May I be born in the realm of Sukhavati.

八十一亿亿亿尊佛的刹土，
所有特点与功德，
悉集于超胜一切的彼刹，
愿我往生极乐世界。

Its precious ground is as even as the palm of a hand.
Vast and spacious, it blazes brightly and radiantly.
It is soft and supple.
May I be born in that pleasant, gentle, spacious realm.

珍宝大地，平坦如掌，
宽广开阔，光辉明耀，
柔软而有弹性，
愿我生于舒适、柔和、宽阔的彼刹。

The wish-fulfilling trees are composed of many jewels,
And are decorated by leaves of silk and precious fruit.
In them are emanated birds whose sweet calls
Proclaim profound and vast dharma.
May I be born in that wondrous realm.

如意树由众宝所成，
以丝绸树叶、珍宝果实庄严，
树上有化鸟，婉转鸣叫，
宣说甚深广大佛法，
愿我生于奇妙彼刹。

There are many rivers of scented water with the eight attributes.
There are also bathing pools of amrita,
Surrounded by steps and bricks of the seven jewels.
Lotus flowers with sweet fragrance and fruit
Emit countless rays of light.
The ends of those Light-rays are adorned by emanated buddhas.
May I be born in that amazing realm.

多有具八功德的香水河，
亦有甘露浴池，
周围台阶与砖石，皆为七宝所成。
莲花芳香，具足果实，
放出无数光芒，
光端以化佛庄严，
愿我生于不可思议的彼刹。

Even the names of the eight unleisured states
And lower realms are unheard there. Kleshas,
The five and three poisons, sickness, dons, enmity,
Poverty, quarreling, and all other sufferings
Are unheard of in that realm.
May I be born in that realm of great happiness.

八无暇与恶趣，
在彼处连名字也听不到。烦恼、
五毒三毒、疾病、魔祟、怨恨，
贫穷、争吵与其他一切痛苦，
在彼刹皆无所闻，
愿我生于大安乐彼刹。

There is no sexuality there, and no birth from a womb.
All are born from within lotus flowers.
Everyone’s bodies are alike, and golden in color.
They are adorned by the marks and signs, such as the ushnisha on their heads.
All have the five clairvoyances and the five eyes.
May I be born in that realm of countless attributes.

彼处没有性事，也无胎生，
一切皆从莲花中出生。
众人身体相同，皆为金色，
以顶髻等相好庄严，
皆具五通与五眼，
愿我生于功德无量的彼刹。

In self-arisen palaces of diverse jewels
Whatever is wanted arises upon recollection.
No effort is necessary; everything one needs or wants is spontaneously present.
There is no “I”, no “you”, and no self-fixation.
Offering clouds of whatever one wishes arise from the palms of one’s hands.
Everyone there practices the unsurpassable mahayana dharma.
May I be born in that realm where every joy and comfort arises.

自然出现的众宝宫殿中，
凡有所欲，忆念即现。
无需努力，一切所需所欲，任运具足。
无“我”、无“你”，没有我执，
随愿的供养云，从掌中生起。
彼处人人修持无上大乘法，
愿我生于一切喜乐安适皆现之刹。

A fragrant breeze sends down rains of flowers.
From all the trees, rivers, and lotuses,
Clouds of sumptuous offerings constantly emerge,
Pleasing forms, sounds, scents, tastes, and textures.

香风吹落花雨，
一切树木、河流与莲花，
恒时生出丰盛供养云，
悦意色、声、香、味、触。

Although there is no ordinary gender,
Emanated clevis constantly present offerings.
When one wishes to sit, there are precious palaces.
When one wishes to lie down, there are mattresses
And pillows of silk on fine, precious beds.

虽无通常的性别，
化现天女恒献供养。
想坐时，有珍宝宫殿；
想卧时，精美宝床上，
有丝绸褥垫与枕头。

When one wishes to hear them, birds, trees, rivers,
Give forth the melodic sound of dharma.
When one does not wish to, they are unheard.
The pools and rivers of amrita are and music
Of whatever temperature is desired.
May I be born in that realm where everything is as wished.

想听时，鸟、树、河流与音乐，
奏出悦耳法音；
不想听时，便不再听见。
甘露池与河水的温度，
皆随心所欲。
愿我生于一切如意的彼刹。

In that realm, the perfect buddha Amitabha will remain,
Not passing into nirvana, for countless kalpas.
May I attend him for all that time.

彼刹正等觉阿弥陀佛，
无量劫中安住，不入涅槃，
愿我始终亲近侍奉。

After Amitabha passes into peace,
His dharma will remain for twice
As many kalpas as the Ganges’ sand grains.
During that time, may I be inseparable from Avalokita,
His regent, and uphold the genuine dharma.
The dharma will wane at sunset.
At the following dawn, Avalokita will attain buddhahood,
Becoming the buddha called King of Massive Splendor
Elevated Above All. From that time,
May I serve him and listen to the dharma.

阿弥陀佛入寂之后，
正法住世的劫数，
为恒河沙数的两倍。
期间，愿我与其补处观世音无别，
护持真实正法。
正法于日落时衰灭，
次日黎明，观世音成佛，
名为普胜广大光辉王佛。
从彼时起，
愿我侍奉、听闻佛法。

His lifespan will be ninety-six septillion kalpas.
May I continually attend and serve him,
And uphold the dharma with perfect retention.
After his nirvana, his dharma will remain
For six hundred ten million,
Three hundred thousand kalpas.
During that time, may I uphold the dharma
And be inseparable from Mahasthamprapta.

其寿量为九十六亿亿亿劫，
愿我恒常亲近侍奉，
以圆满忆持护持正法。
彼佛涅槃后，正法住世，
六亿一千零三十万劫。
期间，愿我护持正法，
与大势至不可分离。

Then, Mahasthamprapta will attain buddhahood,
Becoming the tathagata called King of Amassed Jewels
And Stable Qualities. His lifespan and dharma
Will equal those of Avalokita. May I continually
Attend that buddha, present offerings to him,
And uphold all his genuine dharma.

随后，大势至成佛，
成为名叫宝聚坚德王的如来。
其寿量与正法住世时长，
等同观世音。愿我恒常，
亲近彼佛，献诸供养，
护持其一切真实正法。

Then, after that life, either in that realm,
Or in another pure realm,
May I attain unsurpassable, perfect buddhahood.

此后，彼生结束，
无论在彼刹，或其他净土，
愿我成就无上圆满佛果。

After my buddhahood, like Amitayu, may I ripen
And liberate all the beings who even just hear my name.
May I guide beings through countless emanations,
And benefit beings effortlessly, spontaneously, and immeasurably.

成佛之后，愿如无量寿佛，
仅闻我名的一切众生，也能令其成熟解脱。
愿以无数化身引导众生，
无勤、任运、无量地利益众生。

Tathagata of immeasurable lifespan,
Merit, qualities, pristine wisdom, and majesty;
Dharmakaya Amitabha;
Bhagavat of immeasurable life and wisdom:
It was said by Shakyamuni that anyone
Who recollects your name will be protected from
Fire, water, poison, weapons, yakshas, rakshasas,
And all danger, unless it is
The ripening of previous karma.
I recollect your name and prostrate to you.
I pray that you protect me from all danger and suffering.
Grant the blessing of perfect auspiciousness.

寿量、福德、功德，
本智与威光皆无量的如来，
法身阿弥陀佛，
寿命智慧无量的薄伽梵，
释迦牟尼曾说，任何人，
忆念您的名号，就能得到护佑，
免于火、水、毒、兵器、夜叉、罗刹，
以及一切危险，唯除，
宿业成熟。
我忆念您的名号，向您顶礼，
祈请护佑我免于一切危险与痛苦，
赐予圆满吉祥的加持。

Through the blessing of the buddhas’ attainment of the trikaya,
The blessing of the unchanging truth of dharmata,
And the blessing of the sangha’s unwavering harmony,
May my aspirations be fulfilled as intended.

以诸佛证得三身的加持，
以法性不变谛实的加持，
以僧众和合不退的加持，
愿我诸愿，如意成就。

I prostrate to the three jewels.
TADYATHĀ PAŃCHANDRIYA ĀVABODHĀNAYE SVĀHĀ

我顶礼三宝。
TADYATHĀ PAŃCHANDRIYA ĀVABODHĀNAYE SVĀHĀ

The dharani for the fulfilment of aspirations.
I prostrate to the three jewels.
NAMO
MANJUSHRIYE.
NAMO
SUSHRIYE.
NAMO
UTTAMASHRIYE SVĀHĀ.

成就所愿陀罗尼。
我顶礼三宝。
NAMO MANJUSHRIYE. NAMO SUSHRIYE. NAMO UTTAMASHRIYE SVĀHĀ.

If, saying that you do three prostrations, it is said that they will be
equivalent to a hundred thousand. Therefore do, if possible, one
hundred prostrations; or, as many as you can; or at least seven. If
possible, recite this aspiration every day; if not, once every month
or every year. At least, when you are at leisure, face the west and
recollect the realm of Sukhavati. join your palms and pray to
Amitabha with one-pointed faith. Jf you do so, obstacles in this
life will be dispelled. There is no doubt that you will be re-born in
Sukhavati after this life. This is the intention of the Amitabha Sutra,
the Sutra on Sukhavati, the Pundarika Sutra, and the Drumbeat o
fImmortality. It was composed by the Bhikshu Ragasya. May it be a
cause of many beings’ birth in Sukhavati!

据说，念诵此咒并作三次顶礼，等同十万次。因此，若可能，就作一百次顶礼；或尽力而为；至少七次。若可能，每天念诵此愿文；否则，每月或每年一次。至少闲暇时，面向西方，忆念极乐世界，合掌，以专一信心祈请阿弥陀佛。如此，今生障碍便会消除，来世必定往生极乐世界，毫无疑问。这是《阿弥陀经》《极乐经》《莲花经》及《无死鼓声》的密意。此文由比丘惹嘎西亚撰写。愿成为众多众生往生极乐世界之因！
