勝利之召喚
韋陀菩薩祈願文
空性廣袤⽆邊際,亦無當下之存在。
然而諸法盡顯現,廣袤無際空性中。
於此⼀切展現中,尊現牟尼大護法。
尊之確實真面貌,卻為樓至1如來佛。
吾等性喜貼標籤,稱尊韋馱大菩薩。
吾等匱乏想像⼒,視尊是為大武士。
值此動盪紛亂時,吾等呼喚韋馱尊。
一心虔敬牟尼法,敬尊護衞佛教法,
請尊此刻即現身。
憶念觀世音誓言,祈尊切勿無所為,
無盡想像越量宮,請尊疾來此安住。
祈請登上珍寶座,吾以頂禮示遵從,
吾以深切感恩心,頓首禮敬作供養。
一切可想⾮可想,祈尊歡喜受供養。
自喜瑪拉雅至秘魯之淨水;
自英格蘭至亞瑪遜之鮮花;
自巴黎至馬拉喀什之⾹水;
⾃莫斯科至古京都之燈盞;
自瓦那納西至馬達加斯加之奇珍異寶;
自伊斯坦堡至廣東之點心;
自巴格達至西安城之絲綢。
⽆數妙欲諸供養,尊之面前積如山。
更以普洱與茅臺,慶尊戰勝魔羅王。
于此動盪末法時,如來法教受摧殘、
斷章、抄襲或瓢竊,三寶榮耀亦蒙塵。
眾皆重權輕正直,好偽善而惡真誠,
惜私心而棄慈悲;祈尊以悲願生起。
祈尊以無量示現,護衛佛法與⾏者,
觀音文殊之國⼟,祈尊特別⾏庇佑。
護衛瑪哈中國境,護持羅什、達摩、⽞奘法傳承,
祈令惠能眾高僧,彼諸大願盡實現。
願佛弟子悟二諦,願禪學子證無二。
令僧興盛勤研修,襄助施主財富裕,
促眾咸信正美德,遍灑健康壽加持,
引我邁向菩提道。
此祈請文是由受到菩提達摩傳承以及如六祖惠能等花蔓般長串禪宗祖師所啟發的人所撰寫。⼟登 • 卻吉 • 嘉措造訪了在中國的某些殊勝的大乘佛教聖地後,寫下此祈請文。

A Call of Victory
A Supplication to Wei-Tuo by Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche
In the beginning, which is now, there is only emptiness. In the expanse of emptiness, there is no now. Yet, in the expanse of emptiness, everything appears.
Amidst this display of everything, you appear as the protector of Sakyamuni's teaching. But in truth you are the Tathagatha Anantotsaha.
We who are obsessed with labelling, have labelled you as Wei-tuo. We who lack imagination, have imagined you as a warrior.
Today at this very moment in volatile and tumultuous times, I recall you. With devotion to Sakyamuni, with adoration to you who protects Muni’s teaching, I beseech you to be present now.
Remembering the oath you took with Avalokitesvara, I invoke you: Be not idle. Appear swiftly and reside in this infinite mansion I have imagined. Sit on this jeweled throne. With prostrations I offer my obeisance. With deep gratitude I offer my veneration.
With imaginable and unimaginable infinite offerings, I shall please you. Fresh water from the Himalayas to Peru, flowers from England to the Amazon, perfumes from Paris to Marrakesh, lamps from Moscow to Kyoto, a vast variety of jewels from Varanasi to Madagascar, delicacies from Istanbul to Canton, silks from Baghdad to Xi'an: All these myriad offerings I shall heap like a mountain in front of you.
With drinks like Pu'erh and Moutai I shall celebrate your victory over the maras.
This volatile time, when the Tathagatha's teachings are being destroyed, manipulated and plagiarized, when the splendour of the Three Jewels is veiled and obscured, and when people put power over integrity, hypocrisy over genuineness, and selfishness over compassion, I beseech you to arise with compassion.
Protect the dharma and us followers with your infinite manifestations. Especially protect this land of Manjushri and Avalokitesvara. Protect this land of Mahachina. Uphold the lineage of Kumārajīva, Bodhidharma and Xuanzang. Fulfil the aspirations of this land's countless masters such as Huineng.
May dharma students understand the two truths. May Chan practitioners actualize nonduality.
Make the sangha flourish in study and practice. Help the dharma patrons attain prosperity and success. Make human beings believe in decency. Shower the blessings of longevity and good health on us. Inspire us to follow the path of bodhicitta.
This prayer and supplication is written by one who has always been inspired and encouraged by the lineage of Bodhidharma and the garland of Chan masters such as Huinan. Thubten Chökyi Gyamtso wrote this after visiting some of the extraordinary seats of the Mahayana in China.
