In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
: Brill: 艢aivism and the Tantric Traditions (mahayana)厂耻惫补谤峁嘺辫谤补产丑腻蝉辞迟迟补尘补蝉奴迟谤补 (啶膏啶掂ぐ啷嵿ぃ啶啶班き啶距じ啷嬥い啷嵿い啶じ啷傕い啷嵿ぐ) teaches the protection of the state for the mutual benefit of the Buddhist Sangha and the monarch. It appears that the ritual core of this S奴tra is contained in sections 6, 7 and 8: the Caturmah膩r膩japarivarta, Sarasvat墨parivarta and 艢r墨parivarta. The latter two include more complex observances and 诲丑腻谤补峁嚹�-spells.
Chapter 6, the Caturmah膩r膩japarivarta or Chapter on the Four Great Kings, conveys an explicit message: those kings (manu峁ar膩ja) who venerate the Suvar峁嘺prabh膩sottama and support the Buddhist Sangha will be protected from hostile armies and other dangers by the Four Great Kings, and their countries will exist in highest state of harmony. Simultaneously, those who ignore this tradition will face decline.
In chapter 7, the Sarasvat墨parivarta, the goddess Sarasvat墨 grants her support to the Dharma preacher through the gift of eloquence, and presents a bathing ritual with enchanted herbs for him and his audience in order to appease all disturbances. It is promised that, invoked by praise, Sarasvat墨 herself will appear and remove all diseases and difficulties.
In chapter 8, the 艢r墨parivarta, the goddess 艢r墨 offers support to the Dharma preacher and good fortune to his audience. A rite which provides prosperity is described, through which 艢r墨 herself enters that place. According to the ritual instructions, one鈥檚 home must be purified and one should bathe and wear clean garments. One should offer worship (辫奴箩腻) with perfumes, flowers and incense, then sprinkle juices (rasa) and utter the names of 艢r墨, Ratnakusuma Tath膩gata and the Suvar峁嘺prabh膩sa
Mahayana (啶す啶距く啶距え, mah膩y膩na) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings).
