All beings in the Central Realm and those in the Pure Lands,while moving upon the earth and in the Heavens,continually shower compassion upon all living beings ,affording them equanimity and peace,that they might cultivate day and night.By constantly invoking this sutra,one is liberated from the pain of death and birth,and freed from all the many kinds of suffering.

pee-lee-nee-deh, mo-ho-kya-deh, jun-len-chan-deh, so-ha.
All the transformation bodies of Avalokitesvara
And all the Bodhisattvas have vowed to liberate every being in samsara,
And to cleanse all sufferings when called upon.
One who has non dual faith in Buddha
Will be greatly blessed with guidance .
By keeping intact the root of virtue
one will be able to practice this,
and with one thousand recitations,
the practice blends into one’s mindstream. Then one remains unharmed by fire or weapons,
and anger is transformed into happiness.
Even those who are left for dead
return thereby to life.
One must not doubt this,
for it is the word of Buddha.
The High King Avalokitesvara
in truth removes all obstacles.
Even in the most grave plight
one is saved from death.
This is the truth all Buddhas announce,
therefore pay them homage.
By reciting this praise one thousand times,
one purifies the most negative of karmas.
Those fortunate ones endowed with indestructible faith
are to always uphold this sutra.
Recite the names of the Eight Mahasattvas:
Namo Mahasattva Avalokitesvara,
Namo Mahasattva Maitreya,
Namo Mahasattva Akasagarbha,
Namo Mahasattva Samantabhadra,
Namo Mahasattva Vajrapani,
Namo Mahasattva Manjusri,
Namo Mahasattva Hindrance-Removing Bodhisattva,
Namo Mahasattva Ksitigarbha,
Namo all Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas.
May this Practice
Serve to benefit each and every sentient being.
Having performed one thousand recitations,
The most serious transgressions are altogether purified.
