Chanting Gao-wang Sutra 念高王经?


Refer to: http://lotuschef.blogspot.sg/2015/03/the-annotated-repentance-sadhana-shri.html
9. High King Avalokiteshvara Sutra


The High King Avalokiteshvara wearing the Seven-Buddha Crown



We visualise the eight-petalled lotus, in milky white colour in our heart chakra slowly blooms, and in the centre sits the High King Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. All around the Bodhisattva within the lotus are the buddhas and bodhisattvas mentioned in this sutra.

We now have a lotus in our heart chakra filled with dazzling light like that of the stars shining brightly, and we have actually the mandala of High King Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva – that means pure land!

When you have pure land in your heart chakra, you have no more darkness, worries, sufferings, cravings, desires, angers, hatreds, aversions; and all you have are wisdom, compassion, bodhicitta for all beings.

Maintain this visualisation, and we chant High King sutra.

**If you chant more than once, you can proceed with visualising yourself enlarging gradually and merging into the Universe.

[第一遍至七遍都重复以上的步奏。过后一直观想放光。
渐渐的入定。入定后可以感觉到佛光加持自己。

[渐渐的入定 - 时间的问题。当我们专住观想,已入定了!
很多都没有真正入定的概念。 以为‘入定’是很难的!

入定后可以感觉到佛光加持自己 -- 哈哈哈!
入定了,你是谁? 还要'佛光加持自己' 吗?

哈哈哈! 明白了吗?]

26-11-2011 Visualization - High King Avalokitesvar...
[At the start of your cultivation, please invoke Gm n tell him to help you please.
then chant his mantra at least 7 times.
tell him you want to chant & dedicate to all sentient beings n may all be healthy n happy

Drop self then u can cleanse yourself faster.
Remember you don't exist anymore after u do the 4 immeasurable visualization at the start
u n all beings are ONE already.]

Few months after I took refuge with GM Lu in August 2008, I used this method when chanting Gao-wang Sutra, because fellow students frightened me about the Visualisation that I sighted when chanting this sutra!
The method: I switched on my TV, choosing a drama in Chinese or English that I understand.
The hot drama then was Taiwanese drama - Yi Nan Wang.
Staring at the TV screen and listening to the loud sounds from this drama, I continue to chant Gao-wang sutra and staying focus on the sutra! :)

Hahaha!
GM Lu asked that day how many can stay focus while chanting Gao-wang sutra once?
Well, I can do so!
I can stay focus and continue to chant for almost 5 hours, after practicing to void out Sight & Sound! 
[I chanted Gao-wang sutra >250 times during this 5 hours.
And it took me about 5 days to complete a 1000 rounds of this sutra.]

AND, the sights that flash by like a video when you are deep into Gao-wang sutra is truly amazing!
Don't believe veteran students words about the sights you see when you are chanting mantra or sutra.
They really have yet to experience such wondrous sights!
