This Sutra contains it all -- a heart-rending practice of confession and rejoicing,

profound teachings on dependent arising, reliable assurances of protection,

guidelines for an ideal government, and awe-inspiring stories

of the Buddha’s previous lives, in which the Buddha shows how,

even before he had completely eliminated the delusions, he liberated

countless beings from the ocean of suffering through compassion and personal courage.

The benefits of recitation are immeasurable, including helping bring peace and happiness to all,

offering protection for you, your country and the world from natural disasters. Read more at:
