Sūtra-Chapter on the Mantra of the Great-Power Most-Victorious Golden-Wheel Samādhi of the Great-Buddha-Crown Sitātapatra Tathāgata’s Universal-Compendium-of-Mantra-Kings Dhāraṇī (anonymous)

About the work

A one-fascicle anonymous Esoteric dhāraṇī/mantra chapter under the very long composite Sitātapatra / Buddhoṣṇīṣa-vijaya / Cakra-rāja title. The text is one of the working liturgical extracts of the Buddha-Crown dhāraṇī corpus, focused on the golden-wheel (jīnlún 金輪 = cakra-rāja) Esoteric practice.

Abstract

The Cakra-rāja (Wheel-King) practice integrates the cosmic-imperial cakravartin (Wheel-Turning King) iconography with the Buddha-Crown / Sitātapatra protective tradition. The text gives the relevant mantras with brief ritual prescriptions. Anonymous; conventionally dated to the late Táng to Sòng period.
