V. The Cundi Dharani spoken by the Mother of Seven Kotis Buddhas
Tang Dynasty, India, Tripitaka master Amoghavajra translated from Sanskrit to Chinese by royal decree. Bhiksu Thich Vien Duc translated from Chinese to Vietnamese.

As I have heard at one time, the Bhagavate was in the Great city at Jetavana forest, in the garden of Anathapinkdik, together with the community of Bhiksus, Bodhisattvas, Devas, heaven dragons and the eight groups of the Pantheon who encircled him on sides. Out of compassion for sentient beings in the future that will have little blessings and full of bad karma, he entered into Cundi Samadhi (profound concentration) and spoke on the Dharani that had been given in the past by Cundidevi Dharani Buddha (the mother of seven Kotis of Buddhas. One koti= 1 million years) in the past. It is: Na Mwo, Sa Dwo Nan, San Myau San Pu Two, Jyu Jr Nan, Da Jr Two, Nan, Je Li Ju Li Jun Ti, Swo Pe He.
By reciting this Dharani 900,000 times at home or in the monastery will have eliminated all the sins from countless past lives such as, the ten cruel acts, the five serious offenses, the four major offenses, and the five sins that result in continuous torment in hell. He will meet the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas wherever he is reborn. He will be rich and may enter monkhood. If this person cultivates at home, and diligently keeping the Bodhisattvas precepts, by reciting this Dharani, he will be reborn in heaven. If born as a human, he will often be the king. He will not fall as prey for wild beasts. He will be surrounded by sages and saints, be loved and supported by divinities. If he conducts business he will not have any difficulties. If he leaves home to cultivate the Bodhisattva’s Way, keeping the precepts and praying three times a day, he will achieve all his wishes and gain full wisdom. He will easily attain the rank of supreme right knowledge in his lifetime.

After completing ten thousands Dharani recitations, in his dream, he will see Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. He will see himself throwing up black matter or black rice (black rice represents bad karma, this means the elimination of sins and the start of having blessings). If his sins are very serious, then after completion of twenty thousands Dharani recitations, he will see paradise, or the temple (meaning one is a saint), or himself going up the mountain or on a tall tree (going up means he is not tied down by karma) or taking a bath in a great pond (elimination of the dusts of sins and purification of the body), or flying high in the sky (absence of karma renders the body weightless.) He can also see himself enjoying pleasures with the heavenly women (mutual enjoyment due to the ability of maintaining the corresponding good root).
He may see someone lecturing the Dharma that benefits him and fills him with joy. He may see his hair being pulled out, or his head being shaved (it is the custom of the infidels countries in the West (Hindu) and it represents the uprooting of worries), or he is eating rice with milk and drinking holy water (symbolic of the achievement of good deeds in the world, and of achieving receiving a Dharma status out of this world). He may see himself crossing a big river, or ocean (end of sorrows). Or he is ascending to a lion seat (achieving the rank of Dharma King), or seeing a Bodhi tree (the form of the Dharma), or getting in a boat (boat of Wisdom to reach the shore of liberation)
From Susiddhikara Sutra: Or to see lions, elephants, buffalos, deer, geese, all are the symbols of achievement. To see a monk means one is getting out of the three realms and the world’s pollution. To see an Upasaka (a lay worshipper) covering his head with white or yellow dress (white is peace, yellow is truth) means one is using the peaceful right doctrine to protect and to assist. Seeing the sun and the moon means the destruction of ignorance, sorrows, and darkness. Seeing young innocent boys and girls means one is not tainted with lust and sorrows. Milky fruits on a tree (white represents good deeds) means achieving good reward from the good deeds as one renounces the world. Fighting with a black man that has blazing fire coming out of his mouth and winning means that ones conquers the ghosts of anger and sorrows. A hippopotamus or wild horse comes charging on the practitioner but runs away because of his shouts means that one conquers the sorrows of stupidity. Eating rice, porridge, fresh or cooked milk means that one gets the highest blessing from his good deeds. Seeing a tomana flower, or kings means that one will gets support from noble men and gains respect from all his actions.
If the practitioner does not have any of the above dreams, it is understood that this person has committed the five sins of Avichi Hell then he has to recite up to 700,000 times. Upon completion he will have the above dreams to know that his sins are eliminated and that he has acquired the virtue of an Immortal (or Seer-Rishi)
Afterward, paint and draw a statue of Cundi Buddha. Then perform offerings three, four or six times a day according to the Dharma teaching of this world. One will achieve successes in this world, as well as attaining the unsurpassed realization. One who practices this Dharani should know that achievements are in the near future. To know if the country will have disasters or not, or if one’s achievement will be coming sooner or later, do the following at the place of worship. Use gomaya (cow’s dung) to build a small altar and make as many offerings as one can afford. Form the Mudra and recite the Dharani. Direct the Mudra toward the ten directions. Put a vase filled with perfumed water on the altar, heartily recite the Dharani until the vase starts to move to indicate success. If the vase does not move, it means failure.
Another magic: Put a new ceramic bowl covered with perfume on the altar. Heartily recite the Dharani. If the bowl moves, it means success. If it does not move, it means failure.
Another magic: To know the future, first build a small altar, get a child with all the marks of blessings to wash himself and put on new clothing. Then recite Cundidevi Dharani on the incense and rub it on the child’s hands. Again, recite the Dharani over a flower and stem seven times and put it in the child’s hand. Tell the child to cover his face and to stand on the small altar. Then recite Dharani one time on another flower stem and use it to hit the back of the child’s hand twenty one times. Now you can ask the child questions about your fortune and get all the answer from him.

Another magic: To know if something is good or bad, successful or not, recite the Dharani 108 times on the Tomana’s perfume. Then rub the back of the right thumb with it while reciting the Dharani continuously. Ask the child to look on the back of the thumb for the image of Buddhas, or Bodhisattvas, or scripts that tell good or bad fortune.

The practitioner then recites three sets of Dharani and gives the child a soft stone or chalk.

VI. Sapta-Koti Unique Dharma
In the Tang Dynasty, Subhakarasimha tripitaka master translated from Sanskrit to Chinese, monk Hien Chon translated from Chinese to Vietnamese.

This is the collection of twenty-five sets of Great Destiny Trala Mudra of Cundi special Dharma. Left hand index finger, ring finger and little finger bent toward the palm and left thumb press on the nails of those three fingers. The same with the right hand, so that the two middle fingers are straight and touching each other. Recite the Cundi Dharani 7 times.
Connecting All Frontiers Mudra: Left and right hand opposite each other; the middle finger, the ring finger bent in the palms. The little fingers are straight, the forefingers are straight, touching each other, and both thumbs press on the middle phalanx of the forefingers. Recite the Cundi Dharani 21 times, then 21 times of the Dharani Om Xi Lam.
Self-protection Mudra: Hands are joined, the index fingers are crossed, the thumbs touch the base of the index fingers. The ring fingers, and the little fingers are straight. When confronting with thieves, form this Mudra and raise it to the head, then down both shoulders, chest and up in between the eyebrows. This will keep them from doing harm.
Healing Mudra: The forefingers and middle fingers bent in the palms in criss-cross. The thumbs touch the forefingers. The ring fingers and the little fingers are straight and opposing each other.
Total Gathering Mudra: Cross both little fingers and ring fingers and bend in the palms. The middle fingers are straight and touching each other. The index fingers are slightly bent and away from each other. The thumbs press on the ring fingers.
To invoke deities, form the same Mudra but with the thumbs touching each other to make the hands look like the lotus seat. Recite the Cundi Dharani seven times. Apply the Mudra on the shoulders, the face, in between the eyebrows, on the hair, down to the chest and recite the Cundi Dharani 108 times.
Destroying The Heaven Ghosts Mudra: On each hand, bend the thumb in the palm and press the other four fingers on it. When suspecting the presence of ghosts, ferocious dragons, form this Mudra and recite Cundi Dharani.
Asuras Invitation Mudra: On each hand, the middle finger presses on the thumb. All other fingers are straight like elephant tusks, with the index and little fingers slightly curved. Move the hand back and forth on the altar while reciting Cundi Dharani 7 times. All the Asuras will come over.
The Buddha said: This Dharani and its corresponding Mudra can erase the ten sinful acts, the five sins, all serious crimes, and enable one to realize all the doctrines and earn good merits. There is no difference in the achievement of a monk or a lay worshipper. Even if the layworshipper is not a vegetarian or a celibate, he is not considered impure. He only has to practice my Dharma to achieve good result.
