Excerpts
Beginning
❖ oṃ namo ratnatrayāya
namaḥ sarvabuddhabodhisatvebhyaḥ
yaḥ śrīghano mahābuddhaḥ sarvalokādhipo jinaḥ

upetya sajano rājā sarvāṃs tāṃ vyatikramāt
yadā sa sthaviraṃ natvā tam upaguptam eva ca
tataḥ pūjopahārais tam upaguptaṃ sasāṃghikaṃ
samabhyarcya punar natvā sa janaḥ samupāśrayet (fol. 1v1–5)
