功德與殊勝利益  
蓮師的傳記,大藏經上記載的有四千九百多種,為智慧佛母移喜措嘉、大樂佛母、智慧勝樂佛母等蓮師弟子所寫下,目前已看不到這麼多種。每部傳記中都提到修行此蓮師七句祈請文的功德.

蓮師為諸佛菩薩大慈悲和智慧威德力的化現,因此只要虔誠念誦他的金剛七句祈請文,即會得諸佛菩薩蓮師等無上殊勝的加持攝受。  

蓮師為所有三根本(上師、本尊、空行護法)的主要代表,三者完全融入尊者,因此只要修持蓮師法,三根本已同時俱足,只要虔誠念誦蓮師七句祈請文,三根本即如雲海般聚集現前,賜予修行者共與不共的加持及成就。

寧瑪巴大圓滿龍欽寧體獨掌持有者多智欽大法王祝賀第三世多傑羌佛

在寧瑪巴尤其是大圓滿龍欽寧體,很多修行法門都以蓮師為主為基,尤其是所有的上師相應法,而蓮師上師相應法中最主要的是七句祈請文,故此祈請文為大密宗金剛乘一切教法的根本。又因其由法性界中自然唱出、由蓮師親傳與二十五位心子,並曾發願:"凡唱誦此七句祈請文者,不管身在何處,必會降臨賜予加持。"因此虔誠念誦的人,所得到的加持是不可思議的,能於夢境中親見如彩虹般的蓮師智慧身,聞到奇異的檀香味,聽到空行母唱頌的美妙音聲和像達瑪嚕的鼓樂聲等等.

只要精进不断的念诵此七句祈请文,即可得证大智慧,邪门魔外无法侵入,天龙八部等世间的大力鬼神、死神、邪魔鬼怪等不能为害并随侍如仆,周遭的人也乐于相助,能快速证悟与莲师无二无别的金刚持佛地。莲师的佛行事业功德和成就殊胜,与诸佛陀无二无别,虽非贤劫千佛第二佛,而为藏人赞称之为欧坚第二佛,因此真实语的佛陀也不会欺骗我们,诚心的祈请,必会遵守诺言为我们赐予加持的。

隨尊成就我成就   
外: 此句所講為祈請及依止蓮師學習的方法。親見蓮花生大師能得即身成就……這是蓮師的願力及加持力的功德。但成就的大小也依自己對上師蓮師信心的不同而有差異,具不退轉心即得大成就,若信心淺薄成就亦會有限,因此學到蓮師的教法,必得成就。常言學佛!學佛!即以佛陀為學習的對象、為榜樣,所要得到的是脫離輪迴和痛苦的佛果。
現在我們的榜樣是蓮師,大師是修持九乘法門、得其上師身口意的加持、親近依止西日僧哈等大師修習大圓滿法門。我今天亦如斯學習……親近依止上師善知識學習大圓滿法門,身口意三門合一的學習諸佛菩薩和蓮師的一切教法。蓮師曾說:"未能親見我的眾生們,要學習我的教法,常常看我的像,即如親見我,即得我加持"。我們心裡隨念佛陀蓮師的一切功德,學習九乘教法,但也不可妄說:自己是蓮師的門徒因此不需修行就能成就,蓮師無此允諾,發願之一為……若行者每月初十作薈供修福德資糧,平常修習大圓滿法累積智慧資糧,觀察自己三門(身口意清淨)

精進修習使二資糧圓滿,蓮師會消除我們的一切道障,這是蓮師的承諾。蓮師教法易修易成就,這是確實證明的,看看西藏的成就者中最多的是依止蓮師教法修行的弟子,如蓮師二十五位心子及其它光身、虹光身成就的事蹟。重要的是堅決不可違背上師的教言,一邊違背,一邊縱然淚流滿面的祈請蓮師,既無意義也無多大用處。祈請蓮師時,應如孩子呼叫母親般,身口意合一由衷放聲呼喊,想起蓮師時,應放下一切,不要記掛繁瑣事,三門合一祈請,心裡憶念著蓮師的發願、隨著蓮師的功德誠心祈請,我們就會得到加持,佛菩薩與聖賢們是永遠不會失去承諾的。   
內: 蓮花生大師用其智慧,斷除我們的一切妄念,我們隨其學習時,以無上法門斷除我們的一切妄想、分別之念,所見到即為我們本來的面目--心的本性。隨尊成就我成就,即斷除我們的一切妄念、分別念、一切煩惱,親見我們的赤裸本性--本明。
請幫助我們並發展我們的佛法活動,這不僅會使您受益,而且會惠及地球上所有的佛法讀者。請考慮表示您的支持。您的慷慨解囊肯定會幫助我們改進工作並實現更美好、更光明的前景。

The King Of Prayers-Seven Line Prayer To Guru Rinpoche

The King of Prayers-Seven Line Prayers To Guru Rinpoche Padmasambhava.The Seven Line Prayer: Supplication to Guru Rinpoche. Invoking the Guru with Unwavering Devotion

In Tibet, the prayer is recited three times before doing any meditation, reciting any other prayers, or performing any ceremony. Guru Rinpoche has a rainbow body and will come to your aid if you recite the Seven-Line Prayer with faiths and devotion.

In one of the treasure teaching revelations of Guru Chowang, one of the five Terton Kings, it is said that when supplicating Guru Rinpoche with the Seven Line Prayer:

Pray in this way over and over again.
Create a feeling of yearning and longing
So intense that tears spring from your eyes.
If the rapture of devotion overwhelms you,
Breathe out strongly, and then leave everything as it is.
Clear and awake, focused and undistracted, look within.

Where did this prayer come from? In India in the past, some non-Buddhist teachers, who despised the Buddha Dharma, once challenged the Buddhist scholars at Nalanda University to a scholarly debate. The Buddhist scholars, however, were unable to defeat these non-Buddhist teachers, and so in desperation, they supplicated the Vajra dakas and dakinis. That night, the Dakini Supreme Peace (Zhiwa Chog) appeared in their dreams and said. 

You will not be able to defeat these non-Buddhists. If you do not invite my elder brother Dorje Totreng Tsal (Vajra Skull-Garland Power, Guru Rinpoche), who lives at the Dark Cemetery—the Buddhadharma will be destroyed.”
She then instructed them to arrange an elaborate feast offering on the roof of the monastery and taught them the Seven Line Prayer. When the scholars recited it, Guru Rinpoche immediately appeared miraculously from the sky. He then presided over the Buddhist scholars’ debate and so they were able to defeat the non-Buddhists. Later on in the 8th century, when Guru Rinpoche came to Tibet, he taught the prayer to his close disciples and also concealed it in many treasure teachings for the benefit of future disciples.
The Seven Line Prayer refers to the outer guru, who is symbolized or represented by the manifestation of Guru Rinpoche in a physical form. However, when we talk about the ‘guru’, there are actually different levels of meaning, such as outer, inner, and secret. In terms of the inner and the secret meaning of the seven-line prayer, emptiness and co-emergent wisdom respectively are manifested.

The Seven-Line prayer to Guru Rinpoche, Padmasambhava, is one of the most ubiquitous and important prayers, performed across lineages and in particular the Nyingma tradition who commence nearly every practice with it.  What follows is a brief introduction and Reader’s Guide to this short but extremely profound verse. If you really recite this prayer from your heart, then there's no way that you can avoid bringing Guru Rinpoche forth and invoking him. 

So it's extremely powerful. And you should practice it at all times continually. If you really focus on the Seven-Line Prayer, then it is certain that the blessings will come. The blessings of Guru Rinpoche will spring out and be born in your mind stream.

In the Nyingma tradition, this is the King of Prayers. In Tibet. Many practitioners recite its hundreds of thousands of times, reciting it (mentally or aloud) during all their waking hours, making this prayer as their main prayer, life, breathing, and contemplation. 

”If one can concentrate on practicing the prayer in this life, when you die you will completely dissolve into the mind of Padmasambhava. Guru Rinpoche is the ultimate nature of the embodiment of all Bodhisattvas and Buddhas"

”When a disciple calls upon me with yearning devotion, and with the melodious song of this Buddhist prayer, I shall come straightaway from Zangdokpalri (the pure land where Guru Rinpoche now resides), like a mother who cannot resist the call of her child. ” – Guru Rinpoche, the second living Buddha in our age.
If you seek for wealth, longevity or wish to clear your obstacles, just by praying, all wishes can be fulfilled. Some people think that to practice Guru Rinpoche for wealth is of no use, but this is not correct. Just by relying upon Guru Rinpoche, all wishes can be achieved. 

If one cannot practice other methods, just practicing the seven-lines prayer is the same as a panacea that can cure all kinds of sicknesses. But if one is merely mouthing the prayers, it is not enough, one should have great faith and devotion to Guru Rinpoche and supplicate one-pointedness, then you are sure to receive Guru Rinpoche’s blessings and accomplishments.
A sacred Terma statue of Guru Rinpoche, known as Guru Dewa Chenpo, said to liberate one upon seeing it. This was one of the most precious items kept by Kyabje Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje Rinpoche, who would often sit in meditation with it. While he meditated with it, it would shed tears of Amrita.

In the past up till the present, many great masters and practitioners have seen Guru Rinpoche directly. These are the best signs. The middling signs are to have good experiences arising. The lesser signs are to meet Guru Rinpoche in dreams and to receive prophecies and blessings from Guru Rinpoche. Just listening and contemplating the Dharma is not enough to attain liberation. Besides that, one has practiced. 

In this manner, single-mindedly praying to Guru Rinpoche and merge your mind with Guru Rinpoche’s wisdom mind. This way of progressing on the path to liberation has less difficulties and obstacles. With total confidence and faith in Guru Rinpoche, not just with faith and sincerity, but believing that in any moment, Guru Rinpoche will never deceive or let us down. We must have the faith that Guru Rinpoche and our root teacher is inseparable and no different. Rely on this faith to practice.

Ushnishavijaya Dharani in Sanskrit/梵文佛頂尊勝陀羅尼經

The benefits of reciting the Ushnishavijaya Dharani / 梵文佛頂尊勝陀羅尼經,不空譯版

The purpose of this sutra is said to be to help sentient beings in a troubled and tumultuous world. According to this sutra, beings will leave suffering and obtain happiness, increasing in their prosperity and longevity, remove karmic obstacles, eliminate disasters and calamities, remove enmity and hatred, fulfill all wishes, and quickly be led into the Buddha's way.

It is held by some that when the Dharani is heard, it can imbue the Alaya consciousness with pure seeds that will help to lead one to Buddhahood. This mantra is also linked to Green Tara. 

According to the text, major applications of this Dharaṇi include:

1) Destroy calamities and rescue those in difficulties

2) Eliminate offenses and create good deeds

3) Purify all karmic obstructions

4) Increase blessings and lengthen lifespan

5) Attain anuttara-samyak-saṃbodhi

6) Relieve beings in the ghost realm

7) Benefit birds, animals and all crawling creatures

8) Increase wisdom

9) Revert the fixed karma

10) Eliminate various illness

11) Ensure the safety of the households, and having children to inherit the family pride

12) Harmonise husbands and wives

13) Be able to reborn in Sukhavati or other pure lands

14) Heal sickness inflicted by pretas

15) Request for rain

16) Destroy hells

If someone hears this Dharani even just for a moment, he will not undergo karmic retribution from evil karma and severe hindrances accumulated from thousands of kalpas ago, that would otherwise cause him to revolve in the cycles of birth and death - in all kinds of life forms in the evil paths. 

Hell, hungry ghost, animal, realm of King Yama, Asuras, ferocious animals, crawling creatures and even ants and other life forms...he will be reborn in the Buddhalands, together with all the Buddhas and Ekajati-pratibadda Bodhisattvas, or in a distinguished Brahmin or Ksatriya family, or in some other wealthy and reputable families.


Ushnishavijaya Dharani in Sanskrit:

Namo bhagavate trailokya prativiśiṣṭaya buddhāya bhagavate.

Tadyathā, om, viśodhaya viśodhaya, samâsama

Samantāvabhāsa-spharaṇa gati gahana svabhāva viśuddhe,

Abhiṣiñcatu mām. sugata vara vacana amṛtâbhiṣekai.

Ahara āhara āyuḥ saṃ-dhāraṇi. śodhaya śodhaya gagana viśuddhe.

Uṣṇīṣa vijaya viśuddhe sahasra-raśmi sam-codite.

Sarva tathāgatâdhiṣṭhānādhiṣṭhita mahā-mudre.

Vajra kāya sam-hatana viśuddhe.

Sarvāvaraṇâpāyanagati pariviśuddhe, prati-nivartaya āyuḥ śuddhe.

Samayâdhiṣṭhite. maṇi maṇi mahāmaṇi.

Tathatā bhūta-koṭi pariśuddhe. visphuṭa buddhi śuddhe.

Jaya jaya, vijaya vijaya. smara smara, sarva buddhâdhiṣṭhita śuddhe,

Vajri vajra garbhe vajram bhavatu mama śarīram.

Sarva sattvānām ca kāya pariviśuddhe. sarva gati pariśuddhe.

Sarva tathāgata samāśvāsâdhiṣṭhite.

Budhya budhya, bodhaya bodhaya, śuddhe.

Sarva tathāgatâdhiṣṭhānādhiṣṭhita mahā-mudre svāhā.

西藏預防傳染病之藏藥 - 九味黑藥丸

佩戴嗅聞預防傳染病之藏藥一九味黑藥丸可預防各類傳染病,亦可降魔驅邪護身,能夠有效地避免邪魔所造成的障礙。佩戴嗅聞黑藥丸主要是利用藥物的揮發性氣味和藥力,激發 人體的免疫力和調節機制,並在人體外部對傳染病和邪魔病障作預防。

本品是由八蚌寺佛教大學傳統製造工藝處秉承古代傳統藥方,根據西藏古老的 《四部醫典》第四章的內容醫藥實踐方法精心製作而成。 傳染病,即人、畜之間輾轉相傳的流行性瘟毒、疫窩。通常由顯而易 見的感冒症狀開始,迅速發展成為危及生命的惡毒性瘟疫,臨床表現不一。

在西藏的《四部醫典》裏,特別強調預防對於傳染病和邪魔病障造成的病痛 的重要性,更加明確地指出,流行性瘟疫憑藉呼吸、日光、氣味等,由外在 環境入侵體內,因此,提前預防為首要的任务。 預防可透過諸如藥物、咒語、 禪定等外在的方法,相互結合使用,從而起到避免疾病產生的作用。

(邪魔病障指由天龍凶曜及妖魔等非人所致病害,如区曜中風和麻瘋病等。) 使用方法: 1、黑藥丸囊為佩戴使用,密封處請勿打開。在傳染病流行期間,或人群聚 集處,可將黑藥丸置入囊中,佩戴於頸項,亦可將藥囊放入貼身衣袋中,隨身攜帶。 2、必要時可打開藥囊,嗅間黑藥丸氣味;或將黑藥丸搗碎用火點燃然,以鼻孔吸取煙味。 特別注意:嚴禁口服。

此法是由龍樹菩薩所傳出,是以九大本尊(藥師佛、文殊師利菩薩、觀世音菩薩、金剛手菩薩、馬頭明王、甘露漩明王、滿賢藥叉、大自在天王、象王財神)配合相對的九種藥材牛黃,藏青果,黑附子,麝香,菖蒲,紅花,硫石,阿魏及香墨加以修法,加持而成,能夠摧毀一切瘟神病魔之侵擾。因其配製是以香墨為基礎,故稱為「九黑配方」。
此藥丸可對治:各類地神所施放之災病,免除三種龍王所放之毒,防止和消除各種厲妖所施諸毒,去除黑白二種毒疔,免於重天花之傳染,防止和免除痢疾、腸病痛之傳染,免除因冒犯「瑪哈嘎裡」,而由其眷屬發出諸時疫之傳染病毒,免除因膽入經絡所引起之病症,例如:肝炎、黃疸病,另可免於在末法時期所出現空前未見之怪病、新瘟疫及十五種孩童之魔障…等。本九黑配製之藥,集自一切經續法,九藥以生起九本尊,九本尊咒之加持,灑淨、開光,於身佩掛或鼻聞,無疑可護身、除諸病魔。是故具緣佩者,當生起殊勝之信心!
以下出自寧瑪派教典《大寶伏藏文庫》
梵語:納哇嘎喇優尕藏語:納布穀覺西夏哇

牛黃、藏青果、烏頭(黑附子)、麝香、菖蒲、安息香、硫磺、阿魏、漢墨,製成粉末或者藥丸隨意一種,塗抹於身上或者佩帶在身上,此九種組合第一可壓制土地神;第二除三種龍毒;第三除各種兇暴的毒;第四除黑白疔瘡;第五抵禦惡性痘瘡(重天花);第六抵禦腸痛(痢疾);第七抵禦時疫(傳說護法女神吉祥天母散播的一種惡性傳染瘟疫);第八抵禦膽入筋絡(肝膽系統之炎症,瘟病中於膽腑,加以飲食起居不慎,膽汁注入筋絡,面部眼球及皮膚均變黃色);第九抵禦各種傳染病、十五種兒科邪魔症。其功德不可思議。
龍樹大師授記:此納布穀覺收集自整個續部經典,九種藥生九位本尊,九位本尊加以九種咒語,開光後佩帶於頸項,可防護病魔的侵害務必堅信。從九種傳承利益之門,彼的實踐竅決為,於星曜辰宿良辰日期,不違犯各自的本性,對藥加以善妙修集,遮止違逆損壞的過失,訶子、牛黃、菖蒲、烏頭、麝香、安息香、阿魏、硫磺、漢墨,依次生起藥師佛、文殊、觀音、金剛手、馬頭、甘露漩明王、滿賢藥叉、大自在天、會供主九位本尊,各個的心咒加以圓滿修持,並作開光祝福等諸事,如上凡諸所願明加伺察。甚深的殊勝口訣,利益眾生的事業,願一切眾生成就佛陀。

為什麼我們每個月初十和二十五,特別是初十,都會進行蓮花生大士的七句祈禱文的薈供共修?蓮花生大士說過有很多積累福報資糧的方法,最主要的就是進行薈供。

看上去很簡單,但卻能夠迅速積累廣大的福報,一旦福報積累圓滿了,則業障自然會消除,這是自然的法性。蓮花生大士作為三根本之總集,是百部壇城的主尊,是一切三世諸佛的總集化身,利益眾生的悲心和事業加持力無以倫比。

尤其我們當值五濁惡世,作為蓮師的跟隨者,能聽聞蓮師的名號,能一心向蓮師祈禱和念誦蓮師心咒,是具備無比的大福報。

奈何我們的壽命很短,故此我們要像一世內只能吃一頓飯一樣,緊緊抓住一切機會對蓮師進行薈供供養,如此累積的善根福報是不可思議的。
我們要在開始,中間和結束都具足清淨的發心,準備豐盛的薈供供品、種種艷麗的鮮花、美味的水果等種種供品。薈供的儀軌不僅要會念誦,還要精通修持,好好聽聞善知識對儀軌中的生起次第和圓滿次第的修法竅訣。

表面上看上去我們好像沒有完成什麼壯舉,但實際上卻能在今生迅速積累廣大的福報。以此因緣也能種下來世往生蓮師淨土的殊勝緣起!因此故說蓮師的薈供非常殊勝。

顯宗的教法中也闡明積累福報是非常重要的,我們積累有形物質的福德資糧,可以清淨煩惱障,獲得佛陀色身(報身)的果位,積累智慧資糧可以清淨細微的所知障,獲得佛陀法身的果位。顯密都有積累福德資糧的各種辦法,特別是密宗金剛乘通過薈供的特殊法門迅速積累無量的福報,因此每一個月的初十薈供希望大家都能重視和實踐!

Drolma Yuthog – The Powerful Puja of Arya Tara to Repel Adversity

Drolma Yuthog – Puja of Arya Tara to Repel Adversity.
The powerful prayer of Mother Arya Tara to repel negativities that was passed down by Arya Nagarjuna has many merits and benefits. Since the beginning of last year, the COVID-19 has brought about misery throughout the world and ravaged lives and livelihoods of many people. 

For an extraordinarily challenging time like this, conducting this Tara Puja will be extremely beneficial and urgently required. However to conduct such puja in our country is not possible as it involves the gathering of many participants. Thus I have asked a team of ten lamas from the Chorten Monastery of Sikkim, who currently reside in Bhutan to perform the puja. 

Arya Tara is the embodiment of Buddhas of the Three Times namely past, present and future. Many have espoused the practices, merits, sutra and tantra of Mother Arya Tara. This includes vast teachings about the deity by Sakyamuni Buddha. 
Tara manifested from the tears of Noble Avalokitesvara out of great compassion when he saw the unbearable sufferings of sentient beings in Samsara. The two tear drops became Green Tara and White Tara respectively. Usually Buddhahood is attained with a male body, there are hardly any emanations in female form. 

However, Tara is a unique exception. This is due to her vow to liberate all sentient beings until the exhaustion of Samsara in a female form. This Sadhana is revealed by Nagarjuna after he achieved siddhis from his practice of his ishtadevata Arya Tara and was then passed down through generations of masters from India to Tibet. 

In Tibet, the Sadhana was first introduced by Atisha who gave the transmission to one of his main disciples Dromtonpa and since then, the practice has flourished in Tibet until now. This Tara Sadhana from Nargajuna not only is able to repel all harms and obstacles inflicted by haughty demons and vile spirits, it is like a wish fulfilling jewel cintamaniraja on the hood of Naga King Tsugna Rinzin which can fulfill all mundane and supramundane wishes. 
If someone relies on evil spirits or demons to cast curses and black magic on us, or tries to exert control on us through subjugation practices or when ominous circumstances arise within a community, all this can be repelled by this Tara puja. 

It is also a sublime and profound personal practice to attain spiritual achievements (Skt. Siddhis). When we travel on long journeys for important tasks, this practice can eliminate all outer and inner obstacles. When geopolitical conflicts and epidemics arise, they can also be easily quelled. 

Therefore, practising this Tara Sadhana with faith and devotion can help one achieve all worldly and supramundane aims.  Other benefits include the repelling of curses by mantrins, ominous dreams, harms caused by astral bodies, harms from obstructing spirits, deaths of livestock, harms from demons, etc. In a nutshell, all undesirable and negative circumstances can be resolved with this powerful practice. 
As Buddha taught us :“ From the causes created by this human body, one can achieve the fruition of enlightenment.” Although the power and blessing of compassion from all Buddhas benefitting sentient beings are non-dual. 

In this current age of Kali yuga, the blessing of Tara is the most powerful along with another four ishtadevatas namely, Avalokiteshvara, Vajrapani, Manjushri and Padmasambhava. Arya Tara is the swiftest among the five. 

For those who have received the empowerment of Arya Tara and oral transmission of the Praises to the Twenty One Taras, depending on one's generation of bodhicitta with the right altruistic intent, prepare outer and inner offerings in accordance to the tantra and maintain pure perception and purity of mind throughout the Sadhana will help one definitely accumulate immeasurable merits. 
Meditating upon Tara and the merit field, one can swiftly perfect the accumulation of merit and wisdom, and dispel both the cognitive and afflictive obstacles. 

By Gesar Chagtrul Thupten Thinley Rinpoche.

Thank you for reading, may you find peace and great bliss. With your support it helps to spread the Buddha’s precious teachings and turning the Dharma wheels in the world.

Aspiration For Bodhichitta
For those in whom the precious Bodhichitta has not arisen
May it arise and not decrease
But increase further and further.

Dedication of Merit
By this merit may we obtain omniscience then.
Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings.
May we liberate migratory from the ocean of existence.
With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.

龍樹菩薩所造的綠度母退敵回遮儀軌. 又稱《度母替身伏魔破陣法》


《綠度母退敵回遮大法會—速示勝觀莊嚴真諦成果》

由龍樹菩薩所造的綠度母退敵回遮儀軌(又稱《度母替身伏魔破陣法》)的功德利益殊勝難以言喻。

*這兩年新冠肺炎全球肆虐,導致處處生靈塗炭,許多人都處於水深火熱之中。如此非常時刻舉辦此迅速帶來殊勝加持的法會實是當務之急。然而目前要進行群聚性的法會也是無法進行的,有鑑於此,我已經託付來自錫金多竹欽法王佐登寺,目前住在不丹的資深喇嘛在藏歷六月九日(陽曆七月十八日,星期天)進行上述法會。大家可以隨自己的能力隨喜這個極為重要的法會。*

綠度母是一切三世諸佛的事業自在化身和本尊,一切三世諸佛都開示了許多綠度母的儀軌,功德利益和續部密法。 特別是釋迦牟尼佛也在大藏經裡廣泛開示綠度母的續部。 

綠度母是觀世音菩薩眼淚中顯現的化身,大悲觀音的兩滴淚水,分別化為綠度母和白度母。 三世諸佛普遍顯現男相成佛,很少有顯現女身相成佛的,而綠度母本尊則非常特殊,她在成佛前發願以女身相成道,要在輪迴空盡前一直以女相度化眾生。 

此儀軌乃龍樹菩薩所造,先自己修持綠度母獲得無上成就,爾後啟造這個殊勝儀軌,由弟子們世代傳承修習。 藏地此度母法則由阿底峽尊者從印度傳入,傳授給他的入室弟子仲敦巴,從此在藏地不斷傳承下來,功德事業巍巍不可思議。

此龍樹菩薩所造儀軌不僅可以回遮世間一切魑魅魍魎所作之障害,祂猶如龍王鄒那仁青頂髻的如意寶,也可以滿足世出世間一切所求的殊勝法門。 若有人依靠天龍八部等世間鬼神的力量.....

對我們進行厭勝詛咒,或者是進行誅法忿怒事業的侵害,或因為所住地方產生惡緣等等違緣都可以通過念誦和修習此遮儀軌所遣除,特別是個人自己修持也是無比殊勝的密咒法門。 

當我們遠行辦事之時,修持這個儀軌可以遣除成辦事業的一切內外障礙;又或我們所住的地方發生戰亂或傳染疾病,亦可以依止此法而得遣除。 總而言之,在具備對綠度母絕對的信心的基礎上修持此回遮儀軌,可以成辦一切世出世間之事業,加持的力量無法言喻。 

對消除外道咒師對我們所下的惡毒詛咒,以及消除各種噩夢、作障魔類對我們的腦害,傳染病以及動物大量非自然死亡的惡緣,兇星惡曜所引起的災害,敵對勢力對我們進行的猛咒攻勢以及自己因為破壞誓言所導致的疾病皆可以消除,一切內外不欲發生的不吉祥緣起都可以回遮。

對於已經獲得綠度母灌頂和二十一度母讚頌文等口傳的修行人,在菩提心的基礎上,以利他心為動機,準備合乎儀軌要求的內外密如法的供品,內心清淨 和對境清淨,這樣絕對可以累積不可思議的福德資糧,通過對綠度母進行禪定和觀想積累智慧資糧,可以幫助修行者很快地圓滿福智二資糧,清淨煩惱障和所知障。
