caused by ghosts and evil spirits
Sincerely recite the compassion Dharani
All ghosts will fearfully run away, and delivery will be safe.
If Dragons and Demons poison the air
And one is dying from heat and pain
Sincerely recite the compassion Dharani
The epidemic will end. His life will be long.
If Dragons and Demons spread diseases
Puffiness, boils, pustules make one miserable
Sincerely recite the compassion Dharani
Toxic gas will vanish as one spits out three times.
When a person from the dirty realm becomes vengeful
and casts spells to satisfy their resentment
Sincerely recite the compassion Dharani
They will get the effect of their own spells.
In this Dharma ending stage, the people from the low realm
Having the fire of lust and a crazy heart
Commit adultery, abandon their wife and children
And possessed by obscene thoughts,
If they sincerely recite the compassion Dharani
The fire of lust will die out; the obscene mind vanishes.
The power of this Dharani is briefly described as such.
Everything cannot be said in just one lifetime.
