如是我聞。一時，薄伽梵（Bhagavan，世尊）在室羅筏城（Śrāvastī）逝多林給孤獨園（Jetavana-anāthapindika-ārāma）。爾時，世尊告諸苾芻（bhiksu，比丘）：「有天女名摩利支（Māricī），有大神通自在之力，常行日月天前。日天月天不能見彼，彼能見日。無人能見，無人能知，無人能捉，無人能縛，無人能害，無人能欺誑，無人能債其財物，無人能責罰，不為怨家能得其便。」 佛告諸苾芻：「若有知彼摩利支天名常憶念者，彼人亦不可見，亦不可知，亦不可捉，亦不可縛，亦不可害，亦不可欺誑，亦不為人債其財物，亦不為人之所責罰，亦不為怨家能得其便。若有善男子善女人，知彼摩利支天名求加護者，應作是言：『我（某甲）知摩利支天母有大神力，我今歸命愿護我身。無人能見我，無人能知我，無人能捉我，無人能縛我，無人能害我，無人能欺誑我，無人能債我財物，無人能責罰我，亦不為怨家能得其便。』」爾時，世尊說陀羅尼曰： 曩謨(引)啰怛曩(二合)怛啰(二合)夜野(一)怛你也(二合)他(去聲引二)遏迦么枲(鼻聲已下同三)沫迦么枲(四)阿(上聲)度(引)么枲(五)紫(精以切引)缽啰么枲(六)摩訶紫缽啰么枲(七)頞怛馱(引)曩么枲(八)么(鼻聲引)
【English Translation】 English version The Sutra of Māricī Spoken by the Buddha
The Sutra of Māricī Spoken by the Buddha
Translated under Imperial Order by the Tripiṭaka Master Da Guang Zhi Bu Kong of the Tang Dynasty
Thus have I heard. At one time, the Bhagavan (Bhagavan, World-Honored One) was in the Jeta Grove, Anathapindika's Park in Shravasti (Śrāvastī). At that time, the World-Honored One told the bhiksus (bhiksu, monks): 'There is a goddess named Māricī (Māricī), who possesses great supernatural powers and the power of self-mastery. She constantly travels before the Sun and Moon Gods. The Sun God and Moon God cannot see her, but she can see the Sun. No one can see her, no one can know her, no one can seize her, no one can bind her, no one can harm her, no one can deceive her, no one can take her property as debt, no one can punish her, and enemies cannot take advantage of her.' The Buddha told the bhiksus: 'If there are those who know the name of this Māricī and constantly remember her, that person will also be invisible, unknowable, unseizable, unbindable, unharmable, and undeceivable. No one will take their property as debt, no one will punish them, and enemies will not be able to take advantage of them. If there are good men and good women who know the name of this Māricī and seek her protection, they should say: 'I (name) know that the Mother Māricī has great divine power. I now take refuge and vow to protect my body. No one can see me, no one can know me, no one can seize me, no one can bind me, no one can harm me, no one can deceive me, no one can take my property as debt, no one can punish me, and enemies cannot take advantage of me.'' At that time, the World-Honored One spoke the dharani: Namo ratna trayaya (1) tadyatha (2) arka masi (3) marka masi (4) adho masi (5) ji pra masi (6) maha ji pra masi (7) antardhana masi (8) ma

At that time, the World Honored One, having spoken this Dharani, addressed the Bhikshus: 'If there are those who receive and uphold this Sutra Dharma, they should make this vow: 'Protect me from the difficulties of kings, protect me from the difficulties of thieves. Protect me from the difficulties of travel, protect me in the lost and desolate wilderness. Protect me from the difficulties of water and fire, protect me from the difficulties of knives, weapons, and armies. Protect me from the difficulties of ghosts and spirits, protect me from the difficulties of poison. Protect me from the difficulties of fierce beasts, protect me from the difficulties of poisonous insects. Protect me from the difficulties of all enemies and evil people. The Buddha's truthful words protect me, the Dharma's truthful words protect me, the Sangha's truthful words protect me. The Devas' truthful words protect me, the Immortals' truthful words protect me. In all places, at all times, may you always protect my disciple (name) Svaha.'
The Buddha told the Bhikshus: 'If good men, good women, Bhikshus, Bhikshunis, Upasakas, Upasikas, kings, ministers, and all people encounter difficulties, they should single-mindedly recite this Marici Dharani. Without waiting for additional effort, it will be accomplished as it is recited. Stay away from all difficulties except for those who are not sincere. When reciting, also form the original Mudra. Anoint the hands with incense and first form the Three Sections Heart Mudra. Cross the two hands inward to form a fist and erect the two thumbs. This is the Heart Mudra of all Tathagatas.

【English Translation】 English version The Heart Mudra of the Lotus Family: Similar to the previous mudra, bend the left thumb into the palm and extend the right thumb straight up. The mantra is: 'Om (引一) A (去聲引) ru (引) li ga (半音二)' Next, form the Heart Mudra of the Vajra Family: Similar to the previous mudra, bend the right thumb into the palm and extend the left thumb straight up. The mantra is: 'Om (引一) Vajra (二合) dhri ka (二合) (半音二)' Next, form the Body-Protecting Tathagata Fist Mudra: Bend the right thumb and place it horizontally in the palm, then grasp the thumb with the other four fingers to form a fist. Use this fist mudra to bless the five places on your body: first the forehead, right shoulder, left shoulder, heart, and throat, reciting the mantra once at each place. The mantra is: 'Om (引一) bhuh (引) jvala (二合) hum (引二)' Next, form the Fundamental Mudra of Marici Bodhisattva (Marici Bodhisattva): The two little fingers and two ring fingers, the right hand pressing on the left, crossed internally. Extend the two index fingers straight up and touch their tips together. Use the two middle fingers to hook the backs of the index fingers, pointing forward with their tips touching. Extend the two thumbs side by side, thus forming the mudra. Form the mudra in front of the heart. Recite the previous Marici Bodhisattva Body Dharani and Heart Mantra seven times each. Each time, bend the two thumbs to beckon. This is also called the Inviting Mudra. Also, use this mudra to bless the five places on the body, and scatter the mudra on the crown of the head. Next, form the Great Samaya Mudra (Mahasamaya-mudra): For dispelling and establishing boundaries. Use the right thumb to press on the nail of the little finger, and extend the other three fingers straight up, like the shape of a three-pronged vajra. Make a vajra fist with the left hand and press it against the heart. While reciting the mantra, use the right hand to make the mudra on the crown of the head, rotating it three times to the left to dispel all those who create obstacles. Then rotate it three times to the right and wave it up and down. This establishes the boundaries of the ten directions, and all nagas (Naga), humans, non-humans, etc., cannot approach. The mantra is: 'Om (引一) shang ka le (輕舌二) maha (引) sa (去聲) ma (鼻聲) yam svaha' Next, form the Marici Antardhana Mudra (Marici Antardhana-mudra, meaning invisibility): Make a loose fist with the left hand, and slightly pinch the nail of the index finger with the thumb, forming a ring.

【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本：然後用三指握拳，使其緊密。又讓掌心中間形成一個孔洞，放在自己心前。想像自己的身體進入這個印孔中藏匿起來。用右手平放手掌，向右旋轉摩擦這個印，然後蓋在孔上。想像這個印就是摩利支天菩薩（Mārica，光明之神）的身體，我自身隱藏在摩利支天菩薩的心中。一心專注，不要間斷，誦唸之前的根本真言和心真言。不限定遍數，但要虔誠至心，必定獲得菩薩的威神加護。一切怨家惡人全都不能看見你，一切災難都能得到解脫。如果想要供養摩利支菩薩，應該用金、銀、赤銅，或者白檀香木、紫檀木等，雕刻製作摩利支菩薩像。像天女的形狀，可以半寸長，或者一寸、二寸以下。在蓮花上或站或坐，頭戴寶冠，身佩瓔珞，種種裝飾，務必使其端莊美麗。左手拿著天扇，那扇子就像維摩詰（Vimalakīrti，佛教在家菩薩的代表）面前天女所拿的扇子。右手垂下，揚起手掌向外，伸展五指，作出給予願望的姿勢。有兩位天女各自拿著白拂，侍立在左右。做成這樣的佛像后，戴在頭頂上，或者戴在手臂上，或者放在衣服中。憑藉菩薩的威神之力，就不會遭遇災難。在怨家之處，必定能夠得勝，鬼神惡人都無法得逞。如果想要成就靈驗，願意見到摩利支天真身，求得勝利願望的人，誦唸這個陀羅尼滿十萬遍。依法建立曼荼羅（maṇḍala，壇場），繪製摩利支菩薩像，安置在壇中，用種種物品供養，並且作護摩（homa，火供）火壇。摩利支天女必定顯現其身，所求的勝利願望必定成就，除非不夠至誠。佛告訴諸位比丘（bhikkhu，出家修行的男子）：我爲了未來惡世中受苦受難、心懷恐怖的有情眾生，簡略地說說摩利支天法。這位菩薩有大悲願，常常在苦難恐怖的地方，保護有情眾生，不讓天龍（deva-nāga，天上的龍族）、鬼神、人以及非人、怨家惡獸所能加害。你們應當受持，廣泛宣揚流佈，饒益有情眾生。諸位比丘等以及天龍八部一切大眾，聽聞佛所說，都非常歡喜，信受奉行。 佛
【English Translation】 English version: Then, make a fist with three fingers, making it tight. Also, make a hole in the middle of the palm and place it in front of your heart. Imagine your body entering and hiding in this mudra (mudrā, a symbolic hand gesture) hole. With your right hand, flatten your palm, rotate it to the right, and rub this mudra, then cover the hole. Imagine this mudra is the body of Marici (Mārica, Goddess of Light), and my own body is hidden in the heart of Marici. Focus wholeheartedly and without interruption, reciting the root mantra and heart mantra mentioned earlier. There is no limit to the number of recitations, but be sincere and devout, and you will surely receive the protective power of the Bodhisattva. All enemies and evil people will not be able to see you, and all calamities will be liberated. If you want to make offerings to Marici, you should use gold, silver, red copper, white sandalwood, or purple sandalwood to carve an image of Marici. Like the shape of a celestial maiden, it can be half an inch long, or one or two inches or less. Standing or sitting on a lotus flower, wearing a crown and adorned with various ornaments, make it extremely dignified and beautiful. The left hand holds a celestial fan, like the fan held by the celestial maiden in front of Vimalakirti (Vimalakīrti, a lay Buddhist figure). The right hand hangs down, raising the palm outward, extending the five fingers, making a gesture of granting wishes. Two celestial maidens each hold a white whisk, standing on the left and right sides. After making such an image, wear it on your head, or on your arm, or place it in your clothes. By the power of the Bodhisattva, you will not encounter disasters. In the place of enemies, you will surely be victorious, and ghosts and evil people will not succeed. If you want to achieve verification, wish to see the true body of Marici, and seek the wish for victory, recite this dharani (dhāraṇī, a sacred utterance) a full one hundred thousand times. Establish a mandala (maṇḍala, a symbolic diagram) according to the law, draw an image of Marici, place it in the mandala, make offerings with various items, and make a homa (homa, a fire offering) fire altar. Marici will surely appear in her body, and the wish for victory you seek will surely be fulfilled, unless you are not sincere enough. The Buddha told the bhikshus (bhikkhu, a Buddhist monk): For the sake of sentient beings in the evil world to come who suffer and are terrified, I will briefly speak about the Dharma of Marici. This Bodhisattva has great compassion and vows, and often in places of suffering and terror, protects sentient beings, preventing harm from devas-nagas (deva-nāga, celestial dragons), ghosts, gods, humans, non-humans, enemies, and evil beasts. You should uphold, widely propagate, and benefit sentient beings.
