A Vessel on a White Lotus · Amoghapāśa

Amoghapāśa Dhāraṇī · a continuous excerpt on the lotus, vase and its contents

In the maṇḍala’s centre draw an eight-petalled white lotus. Then prepare an immaculate vase made of gold, silver or copper. Alternatively, it is also permissible to use a newly made, spotless clay, dark in colour. Fill the vase with fragrant water and add the five precious substances, five medicines, and five grains.

Tibetan text

དབུས་སུ་ཡང་པད་མ་དཀར་པོ་འདབ་མ་བརྒྱད་པ་ཅིག་བྲིས་ལ། གསེར་དངུལ་ལམ་ཟངས་ཀྱི་བུམ་པ་མ་ཞུམ་པ། མི་འཇིག་པའམ། ཁམ་པའི་བུམ་པ་སར་པ་སོ་བཏང་བའི་ནག་པོ་དང་ར་རི་མེད་པ་གཅིག་སྤོས་ཆུས་བཀང་སྟེ། རིན་པོ་ཆེ་སྣ་ལྔ།སྨན་སྣ་ལྔ། འབྲུ་སྣ་ལྔ་བླུགས་ལ།

Reading notes

The surrounding text describes preparations for a ritual. Before this excerpt, a square maṇḍala with four gates is drawn; the lotus and vessel are then prepared. Visualisation of Avalokiteśvara, offerings and recitation of the dhāraṇī follow. The text associates the rite with removing obstacles and providing protection.
