金剛頂瑜伽三十七尊禮

【現代漢語翻譯】現代漢語譯本：愿識道場的各位以及法界一切有情眾生，都能斷除各種障礙，皈依並懺悔。

至誠懺悔。弟子眾等，自從無始曠大劫以來，直到今日，因為迷惑于無我的覺悟，執著于有我、有人。我執既然產生，就常常執著于『我所』（屬於我的）。六根和六塵相互纏繞，識陰（阿賴耶識）奔流涌動，衝擊著身心，猶如閃電般迅速。清凈的眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意，一念之間不覺悟，反而變成了六師外道，盜取法王的財寶，供養邊見的賊人。賊人勢力既然熾盛，就攻破涅槃城，殘害法身，焚燒慧命。如此等等罪過，數量超過塵沙，從迷惑走向迷惑，無法測知終始。如今開始覺悟，深深後悔自慚，日夜驚惶，身心戰慄，永遠斷除迷惑的覺悟，以及貪愛我、人的執著，投奔涅槃城，迴歸安樂國。以無我的覺悟，降伏六師外道，收回法王的財寶，納入三堅藏（戒定慧），資養慧命，增益法身，點燃法性之燈，常照無盡。行愿和事理，在塵沙世界中都不違背。對於三寶和三乘，誓當弘揚守護。迷惑和覺悟所產生的罪過，隨著懺悔而消滅。懺悔迴向完畢，至誠歸命頂禮三寶。

至誠發願。弟子眾等以及法界一切有情眾生，從今日開始，乃至證得無上菩提，唸唸堅固，唸唸勝進，身心自在，辯才無礙，在一念之中，具足一切種智。須知一切諸法畢竟空寂，而常度脫一切眾生，共同證得涅槃，但不以涅槃為最終的證悟。發願完畢，至誠歸命頂禮三寶。

金剛頂瑜伽三十七尊禮

【English Translation】 English version: May all sentient beings in the Dharmadhatu (realm of all phenomena), including those assembled in this practice place, be able to cut off all obstacles and take refuge in repentance.

With utmost sincerity, we, the disciples, repent. Since beginningless, vast kalpas (aeons) until today, we have been deluded about the awareness of no-self (Anatta), clinging to the notion of 'I' and 'mine'. Since the ego has arisen, we are constantly attached to 'what is mine'. The six roots (sense organs) and six dusts (sense objects) entangle each other, and the Vijnana-skandha (consciousness aggregate) rushes about, striking the body and mind like lightning. The pure eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind, in a moment of unawareness, are transformed into the six heretical teachers, stealing the Dharma King's treasures and offering them to the thieves of biased views. As the thieves become powerful, they break the Nirvana City, harm the Dharmakaya (Dharma body), and burn the wisdom-life. Such sins are more numerous than grains of sand, going from delusion to delusion, with no end in sight. Now, we begin to awaken, deeply regretting and feeling ashamed, alarmed day and night, our bodies and minds trembling. We will forever cut off the delusion of awareness and the attachment to 'I' and 'mine', and take refuge in the Nirvana City, returning to the Land of Bliss. With the awareness of no-self, we will subdue the six heretical teachers, reclaim the Dharma King's treasures, and store them in the Three Firm Treasures (sila, samadhi, prajna - morality, concentration, wisdom), nourishing the wisdom-life, increasing the Dharmakaya, and lighting the lamp of Dharma-nature, which will always shine endlessly. Our conduct, vows, principles, and affairs will not contradict the realms of dust. We vow to propagate and protect the Three Jewels (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha) and the Three Vehicles (Shravakayana, Pratyekabuddhayana, Bodhisattvayana). The sins arising from delusion and awareness will be extinguished with repentance. Having completed the repentance and dedication, we sincerely take refuge in and prostrate to the Three Jewels.

With utmost sincerity, we make this vow. We, the disciples, and all sentient beings in the Dharmadhatu, from this day forward until we attain unsurpassed Bodhi (enlightenment), may every thought be firm and every thought be superior, may our bodies and minds be at ease, and may our eloquence be unimpeded. In a single moment, may we possess all kinds of wisdom. We must know that all dharmas (phenomena) are ultimately empty and still, and yet we constantly liberate all sentient beings, together attaining Nirvana, but not taking Nirvana as the ultimate attainment. Having completed the vow, we sincerely take refuge in and prostrate to the Three Jewels.

Homage to the Thirty-Seven Deities of the Vajrasekhara Yoga
