Extensive Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha Mantra HD

Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva is often referred to as the Bodhisattva of the Hell beings, because of his vow to not achieve Buddhahood until all hells are vacated. His famous vow recited by many Buddhists is "Not until the hells are emptied will I become a Buddha; Not until all beings are saved will I certify to Bodhi."

In ad...dition to suffering souls in hell, the bodhisattva also helps living beings in other realms, for example : humans, celestial beings, asuras, hungry ghosts, animals and insects. He hopes that by teaching all these creatures, he will be able to stop them from committing more crimes, and thus help them to end their constant suffering.

This is the mantra that Ksitigarbha heard from Buddhas equaling the number of sand grains of the river Ganga. He made offerings to them and then received this mantra. This mantra is to be used for any difficulties, problems; it is the best one to do for any problems in any situation. Even reciting four or five times, just a few times, it is very powerful.

Praise by Buddha to Kshitigarbha
You have generated stability of thought and pure thought (altruism / bodhicitta) and eliminated the sufferings of immeasurable sentient beings. I see (sentient beings) receiving happiness like the wish granting jewel, and like the vajra you cut the nets of the doubt (of others). You offer the Destroyer, Qualified-Gone-Beyond-Ones holy offerings with great compassionate thought and perseverance. You liberate the sentient beings from the sufferings with oceans of wisdom. Because you have no fear (delusions), you have gone beyond samsara.

Thank you so much. May I ask which sutra this is from and is it available in English? Absolutely beautiful.

[adeline108]

@cjmarbutt This sutra is from The Sutra of the Great Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. The practice was translated, compiled and checked by Lama Zopa Rinpoche. It is not available in English.

@myfanniejigglesaboot I suppose that the very fact he's the one to keep the dharma 'between' the existence of the two buddhas (after Shakyamuni, before Maitreia) is the reason why he 'isn't' the next buddha :)

[myfanniejigglesaboot]

please tell me why and how ksitigarbha is not the *next buddha* if he was the one chosen to preserve the true dharma taught by the buddha?

traduccion parte 2:

En adicion al sufrimiento de las almas en el infierno, el bodhisattva también ayuda a los seres vivos en otros ámbitos, por ejemplo: los seres humanos,seres celestiales, asuras, fantasmas hambrientos, animales e insectos. Espera que enseñando todas estas criaturas, él será capaz de detenerlos de cometer más crímenes y así ayudarles a poner fin a su sufrimiento constante.

[anglomois]

traduccion automatica al español: Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva es conocido como el Bodhisattva de los seres del infierno, debido a su promesa de no lograr budeidad hasta que todos los infiernos están desocupados. Su famoso juramento recitada por muchos budistas es "no hasta que se vacían los infiernos convertirá un Buda; No hasta que se guardan todos los seres se certifica a Bodhi."
