all living beings are without knowledge, like the blind see the sun and moon.
The sacred origins come from the great empty void, the extraction area of which is without restrictions.With shimmering clouds that open the gate of life and auspicious mists that seal the gate of death.
The beginning of the pre-heaven qi of the mysterious primeval beginning is connected with the promising happiness and the pivot point of creation is perceived.

The redemption from suffering comes from all subtle deities when the redemption from suffering is successfully manifested,
mixed with the sky above, there is no separation, as the qi of the fore-sky returns to the whole body,
everything is accomplished in the person of the natural state. The natural state has its own body,
with its origins, in the Empty Cave its remains are not remains,
every aspect is quite hollow and empty. First, collect the fore-heaven qi to establish yourself.
Second, the Qi of the foreground comes into being; third, the innumerable things arise
fourth radiation arises. There are thirty-six in heaven
there are also thirty-six on earth, the highest mystery knows no bounds.
Wonderful are the writings of the great grotto, which can give life to the Most High, remove all sins,

By accumulating the qi of the foreground, merits are gathered and sinners are saved at the same time.
Sinners are really to be pitied, I am now speaking of this wonderful scripture.
Reciting without pause, the Qi of the fore-heaven is continuously returned to the body.
Enjoy great bliss in heaven, there are no cries of suffering in the underworld.
Huo Yi becomes a domain of purity, sword trees turn into moon trees.
At the top, go up to Zhulingfu, at the bottom step in and open the Gate of Light.

Thereupon rose heaven, the divine kings and the multitude of sentient beings,
looked with awe at the revered face and wrote this ode:
The Supreme Heavenly One speaks of the teachings of the scriptures and guides all on life.
Cultivate diligently and learn non-fictional actions; enlightenment to the truth of the Tao will arise by itself.
Neither beguiled nor dissolute, without a self and also without a name.

The wonderful script of the deepest grotto Numinous Treasure for liberation from suffering
The Supreme Heavenly One speaks of the True Scriptures to attain the Dao for those born in heaven
At this time,
the Supreme Celestial of the Primeval Beginning, was in the Dailuo Heaven, within the Jade Main Mountain, because of the multitude of Immortals in all Heavens,
spoke of this True Scripture about the attainment of the Tao for the heaven-born and announced to all immortals: For you I now sketch and enlighten your body and spirit,
understand my sermon on the subtle depths of the Tao. All gods and immortals of the ten directions who have reached the Tao all begin their self-cultivation from this scripture and have been connected to the deep mystery. Good men, nice women,
Rely on fasting and the commandments to serve as a bridge, all of these fabricated actions will reveal all true paths. Understand the manifest body phenomena of the Tao, then receive and maintain enlightenment.
Being able to discard the causes of mass fate removes contaminating obsessions forever. Outwardly no thoughts come in, inside thoughts occur, in the midst of calm without distractions appearing,
then a cooling refreshment for five bowels, six bowels are in harmony and healthy. There are various blockages between the three hundred and sixty joints,
the causes of the ten evils, the causes of the hundred and eighty afflictions, the multitude that suffers the source of sin, are all cleansed.
The true Qi of the fore-heavens of great harmony is immediately drawn in, permeates and nourishes the body-field, the five entrails and six viscera, the spirit inwardly observes the true Qi of the fore-heaven,
everything is cleansed of polluting illusion and radiant, shining brightly in the empty space, unfathomable and deeply mysterious, without any artificial acts externally and internally. In an invisible and inaudible state
to reach precisely the state of non-invented actions. Ever since antiquity until today, always keeping calm thoughts, from here attaining liberation through enlightenment. With the power of the Tao to offer and the help of teaching medicine,
then moderate eating and drinking, banishing the corpse spirits, calming the six senses, reflecting calmly on the eighth consciousness, emptying the five aggregates, authenticating the miracle of the three primas,
To attain Tao and attain perfection naturally ascend into liberation. At that time the multitude of immortals from all heavens reported to the Supreme Heavenly Voice:
From the beginning until today we have not yet heard the scriptures of the great tradition,
all of us who are destined hereby are honored to extend comprehensively to all, the fruit of the Tao is perfect and radiant, and so this hymn said:
The Tao is unfathomable, deeply mysteriously calm, invisible and inaudible, which does not interfere with the great void.
The essence of purity and calm has no attachments, the spirit of consciousness and the primordial spirit are all dissolved in the true source
The Supreme Heavenly of the beginning speaks of the True Scripture to attain the Tao for those born in heaven
The Supreme Lord of the Tao speaks of the wonderful scriptures for dissolving enmity and deliverance from sin
At this time,
the Most High Lord of Tao and the whole multitude of the wise were in the garden of the Eight Moon Tree Grove on the Terrace of the Seven Treasures.
With the ranks of the immortals spread out in an impressive and dignified manner, he gave a detailed account of the subtle depths of the Tao and sat in silence with a gracious and benevolent look. From the mountain of the jade capital, the splendor of the Seven Treasures was released and illuminated the Hall of the Blessed in the underworld. In the hall of the blessed see good people, men and women,were all happy, effortlessly and at leisure and carefree.
Reunion in the whole underworld, hungry ghosts and poor souls, with day after night,suffer all kinds of torments, without looking human, the whole body is disabled and broken, eat raging fire when hungry,
Drinking molten copper when they are thirsty, their feet step on mountains of knives, the body suffers from iron bars,
Bleeding all over her body and her pathetic screams reached the sky. At this moment in this gathering
There was an immortal named Guang Xin who got up from his seat.
Did his homage and went ahead. Report above, saying to the Lord of Tao:
I do not know these poor souls here what an offense they have committed in life in order to be exposed to such suffering.
The Lord of the Tao replied: Those who were subjected to all these sufferings while they were still alive did not respect the Three Lights, with reasons to deceive and forsake the gods.
the ten evils and the five defiance, disloyal and unfriendly, merciless and not childish, destroy and damage living beings, kill and harm living beings, their happiness being exhausted and their lifespan at the end,
they have to endure such suffering. At that moment, with growing compassion in his heart, the immortal Guang Xin wanted to help free her from her suffering.
Hoping that the Lord of the Tao would use his miraculous powers and light of the numinous to strengthen the order for absolution and universal salvation. The pursuit was made with by. favored
the Lord of the Tao, and the bestowal of these golden words were narrated to underline all the beauty and subtlety of the teaching. He lectured on this passage for all living beings,
called “Resolving Enmity Extraction from Sin” and spreads it all over the world,

with your heart and soul focused on this pursuit, step into the silence, hold the quick, burning incense and practice Tao,
As I recite this scripture day and night, I will grant their wishes, bless these people, and allow past lives to feel grudges.
to use this blessing to atone for their sins, for the souls of the suffering of the dead are transformed into gratification, each becoming transcendent in the ascension. the immortal Guang Xin, rejoiced and once more paid homage,
for the detailed and precise explanation of the logic of cause and effect and wrote this ode:
Great is the Lord of the Tao, who continually extends his immeasurable merits to all.
A ship in the sea of life and death that helps and sets lost souls to overcome Luofeng.
Since sins never recur, the blessing extends to the underworld.
The power to implore the gods, how can it be measured, words of praise can never fully describe their merits.
At this moment, the immortal Guang Xin and all the many sages
with the teaching announced nearing completion, all did their honors and returned to their confidence by faithfully accepting and pursuing its implementation.
The Supreme Lord of the Tao speaks of the wonderful scriptures for dissolving enmity and deliverance from sins
