3. I vow that I shall grant by means of boundless wisdom, all beings
with the inexhaustible things that they require, and relieving them from
all pains and guilt resulting from materialistic desires. Although clothing,
food, accommodation and transport are essentials, it should be utilised
wisely as well. Besides self-consumption, the remaining should be generously
shared with the community so that all could live harmoniously together.
4. I vow to lead those who have gone astray back to the path of righteousness.
Let them be corrected and returned to the Buddha way for enlightenment.
5. I vow that I shall enable all sentient beings to observe precepts
for spiritual purity and moral conduct. Should there be any relapse or
violation, they shall be guided for repentance. Provided they truly regret
their wrong-doings, and vow for a change with constant prayers and strong
faith in the Buddha, they could receive the rays of forgiveness, recover
their lost moral and purity.
6. I vow that all beings who are physically disabled or sick in all
aspects be blessed with good health, both physically and mentally. All
who pays homage to Buddha faithfully will be blessed.
7. I vow to relieve all pain and poverty of the very sick and poor.
The sick be cured, the helpless be helped, the poor be assisted.
8. I vow to help women who are undergoing sufferings and tortures and
seeking for transformation into men. By hearing my name, paying homage
and praying, their wishes would be granted and ultimately attain Buddhahood.
9. I vow to free all beings from evil thoughts and its control. I shall
lead them onto the path of light through inculcating them with righteousness
and honour so that they will walk the Buddha way.
10. I vow to save prisoners who have genuinely repented and victims
of natural disasters. Those who are sincere will be blessed by my supreme
powers and be freed from sufferings.
11. I vow to save those who suffer from starvation and those who committed
crime to obtain food. If they hear my name and faithfully cherish it, I
shall lead them to the advantages of Dharma and favour them with best food
and eventually lead a tranquil and happy life.
12. I vow to save those who suffer from poverty, tormented by mosquitoes
and wasps day and night. If they come across my name, cherish it with sincerity
and practise dharma to strengthen their merits, they will be able to achieve
their wishes.
