Praise of Incense Offering

Incense burning in the censer,

All space permeated with fragrance.

Buddhas perceive it from every direction.

Auspicious clouds gather everywhere.

With our sincerity,

Buddhas manifest themselves in their entirety.

We take refuge in the bodhi­sattvas, mahasattvas.

Sutra Opening Verse

The unexcelled, most profound, and exquisitely


wondrous Dharma,
Is difficult to encounter throughout hundreds of
thousands of millions of kalpas.
Since we are now able to see, hear, receive and­
retain it,
May we comprehend the true meaning of the
Tathagata.

Samanta­bhadra Bodhi­sattva Chapter

At that time, Samanta­bhadra Bodhi­sattva, Maha­


sattva, having praised the excellent virtue of the
Tathagata, said to all the bodhi­sattvas and Sudhana,
“Good men, as for the virtue of the Tathagata, if all
the Buddhas of the ten directions expounded con­
tinuously for kalpas as numerous as the minutest of
dust particles in inexpressibly inexpressible numbers

[...] this virtue could not be fully described. Those


wishing to accomplish the methods of this virtue
should cultivate ten expansive and great practices
and vows. What are the ten?
The first is to pay homage and respect to all
Buddhas;
The second is to praise the Tathagatas;
The third is to extensively cultivate making
offerings;
The fourth is to repent and reform karmic
obstacles;
The fifth is to rejoice in virtue;
The sixth is to request the turning of the
Dharma wheel;
The seventh is to request that the Buddhas
remain in the world;

[...] Each Buddha is surrounded by an assembly


of bodhi­sattvas. With my profound and supreme
understanding, I know and see all manifestations.
Each brings forth a tongue of wondrous eloquence
that surpasses the goddess [of eloquence]. Each
tongue brings forth an endless sea of sounds. Each
sound emits an ocean of words, admiring and prais­
ing the sea of virtue of all Tathagatas. These praises
continue throughout all future time, without even
an instant of ceasing, reaching everywhere in all
the Dharma realms.

He exerted himself in the various kinds of difficult

offerings to all Buddhas. If he respects and serves

Tathagatas, take the great compassionate mind as
their essence. For the sake of sentient beings, they
bring forth great compassion. From great compas­

the bodhi mind, they attain perfect enlightenment.

will vow to stay near and protect. Therefore, if one

the world without obstacles, like the moon appear­

In the minuteness of the tip of a hair,

I offer awe-inspiring jewels to the Tathagatas

unwholesome Dharma friends,
Forever depart from all lower realms of existence,
Quickly see Infinite Light Tathagata,
And possess these supreme vows of

Such as the practices of Samanta­bhadra.
Due to a lack of the power of wisdom in the past,
One committed the most wicked of the five
uninterrupted [transgressions];

In one thought all will be quickly eliminated.
One’s clan, race, and appearance,
And the marks of excellence and wisdom are
perfect;
All maras and those outside of the Way are
unable to destroy one,
And one is worthy of receiving the offerings
from the three realms.
