He
produces all joys and delights Which beings receive without end; He causes all
who see not to waste: This is the enlightenment of
Flower Banner.
The
ocean of Buddha's virtue is inexhaustible; No bounds or limits to it can be
found. Its light shines in all ten directions:
This is the liberation of Adornment King.
The
Buddha's great sound is always spoken, Showing the real true way out of
distress; All beings who hear it are happy and glad:
Pleasing Sound is capable of believing this way.
I
see the Buddha's sovereign powers All stem from practices cultivated in the
past; With great compassion he saves beings and makes them pure:
This Jewel Tree King can understand.
It
is difficult to get a chance to see a Buddha; Beings may encounter one in a
million eons, Adorned with the marks of greatness all complete:
This is the view of Beholder's Delight.
Observe
the great knowledge and wisdom of Buddha, Responding to the desires of all
sentient beings, Expounding to all the path of omniscience:
Supreme Adornments can comprehend this.
The
ocean of deeds is inconceivably vast— Beings' suffering and happiness all come
from it; All this the Buddha can show: This is what
Flower Banner knows.
The
Buddha's mystic powers are uninterrupted— In all directions the earth
constantly quakes, Though no sentient beings are aware of it:
This Immense Power ever clearly sees.
Manifesting
spiritual powers while among the masses, He radiates light to make them wake
up, Revealing the realm of all the enlightened:

said in verse,
The
Buddha-eye is vast and boundless, Seeing all the lands in the ten directions.
Sentient beings therein are innumerable: Showing great spiritual powers, he
conquers them all.
The
Buddha's spiritual powers are unhindered; He sits
under all the enlightenment trees in the ten directions And expounds the truth
like a cloud filling everywhere: Jewel Topknot, hearing this, does not oppose.
The Buddha did various practices in the past, Universally purifying great means of
transcendence, Giving
offerings to all the enlightened: This the Swift king deeply believes.
In
each pore of the Buddha Boundless practices are shown in an instant;
Such is the realm of Buddhahood: Adorned by Non-regression clearly sees all.
The
Buddha's boundless wisdom light Can destroy the net of ignorance and illusion,
Saving all beings in all worlds: This is the
teaching held by Stable Light.
The
citadel of truth is immense, endless; Its gates are various and uncountable The
Buddha, in the world, opens them wide: Here
Beautiful Crown Topknot clearly enters.
All
the Buddhas are one reality body True suchness, equal, without distinctions;
The Buddha always abides through this power:
Immediate Manifestation Everywhere can fully expound this.
The
Buddha in the past saved beings in all realms, Shining light throughout the
world, Teaching and taming by various means:
This supreme teaching Ocean Surveyor realizes.
The
Buddha sees all lands All resting on the ocean of doing, And rains the rain of
truth on them all: Dragon Sound's liberation is like
this.

them. The radiance of his light is equal to space, Appearing before all
