Two Precious Scroll Narratives of Guanyin and Her ... - Khamkoo

The Precious Scroll of Incense Mountain, Part 2 159
Never again say that a woman can have no accomplishments:
Her work done, her merit complete, she became a buddha.
Namo Guanshiyin pusa
(The following gātha has eight lines. The recitation of the name of
the bodhisattva and its repetition by the congregation concludes this
[ritual of] merit.)
This tale of cause and circumstances has been told to the end,
The old mirror, now bright again, illuminates the many worlds.
Those whose faith is up to it achieve the right enlightenment—
If one does not achieve buddhahood, one becomes an immortal.
This sutra of the first life of the One Who Contemplates the
Cries
Is of universal benefit to all sentient beings in the entire world.
May you read or hear it, understand it, and grasp it completely—
Now that this work is fully concluded, I wish you Great Peace.
The end of the scroll.
(Recite the Great Compassion Dhāraṅī once. Then strike the chimes
and recite the last four lines loudly.)
The Second Scroll of the Short Version of The Sutra on
the Original Life of the Bodhisattva Guanshiyin
The merit of expounding this scroll is quite superior,
May the limitless superior blessing all be transferred.
My universal wish is that all who have sunk and drowned,
May quickly go to the realm of the Buddha of Limitless Light.
The leader, who is now back in the midst of the congregation,
kneels down and reads out the Buddha’s various texts of repentance.
He then leads the congregation in reciting the name of the
Buddha.
(The End)
Composed by the meditation master Puming of the Tianzhu
Monastery of the Song dynasty.
Edited by the later student Jinghong of the Clear Plum Court.
