Homage to the Compassionate Great Lord of Teaching,

 

The Earth speaks of firmness, vastness, and containing treasures.

 

In the southern realm, fragrant clouds surge, gathering clouds of flowers and rainbows.

 

Innumerable precious clouds and rains, auspicious and majestic in every adornment.

 

Heavenly beings inquire about the cause, and the Buddha speaks of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's arrival.

 

The Tathagatas of the Three Times praise and admire, while Bodhisattvas from the ten directions offer refuge.

 

In an instant of sight and reverence, countless beneficial deeds for humans and heavens unfold.

 

Lifespans extend, obstacles dissipate, and all evils vanish.

 

Today, I plant seeds of virtuous causes, extolling the true virtues of Ksitigarbha.

 

The scripture says: "If there are good men and women who wish to cultivate boundless compassion, save all sentient beings, pursue supreme enlightenment, transcend the three realms, and fulfill present and future aspirations, they should make offerings and pay homage to the image of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, recite his name ten thousand times. They shall receive the Bodhisattva's boundless body, touch the crown and receive empowerment, or in dreams, witness great miraculous powers, and be protected and blessed. Such individuals shall enjoy abundance in this life, free from all suffering, fulfilling all desires."

 

 

The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Jewel Vase, also known as the Feng Shui Vase, addresses geographical imbalances due to the interplay of earth, fire, water, and wind. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's immense compassion and the reverence of the Chinese lead to swift responses to offerings made to this vase. Additionally, during the Dharma-ending Age, numerous obstacles from evil dragons and land deities arise. The consecrated mantras within the vase appease these entities, promoting harmony. Furthermore, the inclusion of Ksitigarbha mantras aids in altering Feng Shui, benefiting households and gravesites. The principles of Chinese Feng Shui, existing for millennia, promote physical and mental well-being, prosperity, and power through correct architectural placement. 

 

Benefits of Worship:

 

Containing the essence of earth and worldly elements, worshiping the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Jewel Vase eliminates disasters, diseases, premature deaths, and balances elemental forces. It enhances longevity, virtue, power, fortune, and career success. For those already prosperous, further abundance and auspiciousness manifest, yielding countless merits. In addition to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's main mantras, the vase includes mantras of Earth Mothers, Great Earth Deities, and other blessings, ensuring safety, health, wealth, and protection from disasters and diseases. Placing the vase away from the door in a sincere home shrine counteracts adverse Feng Shui, warding off diseases and disasters.

 

Worship Methods:

 

The vase can be worshiped beneath a Buddhist altar, under a clean table or cabinet, or buried in walls, enhancing earth energies or rectifying Feng Shui imbalances. For new constructions, bury vases in each cardinal direction or in fields for bountiful harvests. Even atop mountains, the vases benefit beings. Alternatively, worship them in home shrines or burials for prosperity, health, longevity, wisdom, power, and success. If inconvenient, bury one in the center and others in cardinal directions during construction.
