Chapter 1132: Prayer Mantra
Her eight incarnations are actually eight different aspects of Ted, and each incarnation should have a different mantra ritual.
For example, if you seek wealth, you should recite the name or mantra of one of them, and you should pray for the name of one and remove obstacles, and if you pray for wisdom, you should pray for another statue in particular.
In short, the great auspicious celestial maidens are divided into eight Buddha-figures with different duties.
As far as the teachings are concerned, in the Dharma realm, there must be a profound Dharma cultivation of the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden, but only a small part of them are now circulating in the world.
The Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden is a heavenly protector god who is highly respected by the Han Dynasty, and the ten small mantras in the jungle class are the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden Mantra, which is widely read and recited by the four disciples of Buddhism.
As for the worship of the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden, not only Buddhism, but also Hinduism and Jainism regard the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden as one of the Buddha-figures of their own sect.
She is the Hindu goddess of wealth, prosperity, happiness, wife of Lord Vishnu, one of the main deities of Hinduism and the supreme being in the Vishnavian tradition.
According to Hindu teachings, she was born into the churning of the primordial sea (Samudramanthan) and chose Vishnu as her eternal consort.
When Vishnu landed on earth as the incarnations Rama and Krishna, Lakshmi descended as his respective spouses as Sita and Rukhmini.
Lakshmi and Vishnu, as a marital relationship between a wife and a husband, are an example of a ritual performed in a Hindu wedding.
In India, Lakshmi is a beautiful and benevolent Hindu goddess who brings wealth to those who pray.
Her association with lotus flowers, elephants and water represents her belief in abundance and wealth for everyone. She is happy to provide for you, whether it is money, time, knowledge, or opportunity.
Lakshmi works with Ganesh, an elephant god known for breaking down obstacles, and when they join forces, they are a team of thunderbolts to help you let go of your fears and embrace your wealth.
Goddess of Wealth - Lakshmi Goddess of India, the goddess with godhead traits such as wealth, prosperity, good luck, beauty, kindness, etc., is one of the most beautiful goddesses.
Among the other incarnations, there are eight images representing power, knowledge, heirs, and wealth, representing different levels of merit.
Wealth can be given to those who revere him. She brings good luck and protects her followers from all kinds of suffering, as well as money-related sorrows.
Lakshmi was always worshipped with the elephant god Ganesha, and in some legends Ganisha was Lakshmi's adopted son. Also, Lakshmi represents wealth, while Ganisha represents success. Both bring prosperity more across the board.
During the sacrifice of Lakshmi, the house is cleaned and kept soft.
In Hinduism, the prayer mantra to the Great Auspicious Goddess is:
MANTRA: OMSHIRIMAHALAKSHMIYEINAMAHA
In Buddhism, the great auspicious goddess has a different identity. Some people say that the great auspicious goddess of Hinduism is not the great auspicious goddess of Buddhism, but can actually be regarded as a different manifestation of the great auspicious goddess.
She wants to save sentient beings, and her power is revealed, but she may not appear as the image of the protector of Buddhism.
In the "Seven Buddhas and Eight Bodhisattvas Said the Great Dharani Divine Mantra", it is said that what she has witnessed is the realm of the first bodhisattva.
"I received this mantra from the Buddhas in the past, and now I have this body that is upright and wonderful, and the light shines on the heavens. His mind is full of knowledge and ignorance, and his mind is as good as it is in the present, and he has the knowledge of fate, and he has enough knowledge of the three understandings and eight liberations, and he is also prepared with sufficient merits, such as the first resident bodhisattva and so on. โ
Obviously, the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden has the full liberation of the Three Clears and Eight Liberations, and has entered the Holy Throne, not an ordinary celestial god.
"For the sake of all sentient beings, she is now a goddess. Seeing the echoes of all sentient beings, those who are not drowning in the sea of suffering and are incapable of perceiving, I am now ashamed of all sentient beings, and I want to support them with this divine mantra. If the passers-by seek what they want, the sick seek the poor, the poor seek rich, and the lowly seek richness......"
She also said that in order to transform sentient beings, she manifested herself as a celestial maiden and fulfilled the wishes of sentient beings, so that the sick would be cured, the poor would be rich, and the lowly would be noble.
In "The Buddha Says the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden Twelve Deeds and One Hundred and Eight Immaculate Mahayana Sutras", it mentions the Dharma flow and identity of the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maidenโโ
All the empowerments of the Buddha, all the Mother of the Buddha, all the Mother of God
The Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden receives the empowerment of all Nyora, and at the same time she is the Mother of All Nyora, the Mother of All Heavens.
It is also said in Hinduism that it is said that it is the Mother of the Heavens, after all, Vishnu belongs to the supreme position in his teachings, and Lakshmi is the Mother of the Universe and is revered in the Three Realms.
And when it comes to all the Buddhas, in Buddhism, there are all the Buddha's Dharmakaya Dayi Buddha's Mother, or the Buddha's Mother of the Buddha's Eyes, which can give birth to all the Buddha's causes.
The great product of Prajna Sutra and the Buddha of Prajna are the Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas, who can give birth to Buddhas and hold Bodhisattvas. Among the parents, the mother's work is the heaviest, so the Buddha takes Prajna as the mother.
"Yu Only Sutra" cloud: Suddenly all the Buddha's mother body, living in the big white lotus, as the white moonlight, smiling with two eyes and living in the umbilicus, such as into the samadha. From all the branches are born ten condensation oh sand grub Buddha, one by one Buddha is to pay homage to the birth of this place.
The "Great Prajna Sutra" Volume 14 "Buddha Mother Product" cloud: It is a deep prajnaparamita that can give birth to all Buddhas, can have all the wisdom of the Buddhas, and can show the world, so that the Buddhas often see it as a deep prajnaparamita with the eyes of the Buddha.
From this inference, it is also very likely that the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden is the manifestation of the Great Ri Nyorai, the Mother of the Buddha, and the Mother of the Buddha's Eyes.
And this secret is rarely revealed, but without exception, when practicing the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden, she will first satisfy you with wealth, food, dependents and other resources to help the Tao, and guide you to become a Buddha in the end, which is the original intention of Yinghua.
Esoteric Buddhism also believes that the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden is the body of Guanyin Bodhisattva, so she often appears in the Elysium and the flow of Guanyin Bodhisattva to support the teachings of Guanyin.
In Hinduism, the goddess of great auspiciousness is the god of wealth, love, happiness, and beauty, but after the rise of Buddhism, the main characteristics of the great auspicious goddess are biased towards wealth.
The sutras mention the great auspicious celestial maiden, which is often related to money and wealth, but does not mention happy love.
The reason for this is not difficult to understand, in Buddhism, there is often not too much emphasis and play on love, happiness, etc., for fear that sentient beings will be addicted to it and will not be able to liberate themselves from life and death.
Usually making offerings to the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden will increase your merit and wealth, which is due to her wish.
Such as one hundred and eight sutras: This great auspicious mantra and the one hundred and eighteen names can remove all afflictions, destroy all sins, summon all blessings, remove all ominousness, and summon all merits.
The Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden Gendharani is a large section of the blessings of the great heavens, Hinayana saints, immortals and other sages, and the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden Gain Dharani also mentions the blessings and gains of the immortals.
On the one hand, it can be seen that the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden lives in the garden near the Crystal Palace of the Northern Heavenly King of the Four Heavenly Kings, which is closest to the human world, and has a deep relationship with the ascetic immortals who live in the human world and the four heavenly kings.
