Mólìzhītiān yīyìn fǎ 摩利支天一印法

Single-Mudrā Method of Mārīcī-deva by anonymous compiler

About the work

A very short anonymous Esoteric ritual text on Mārīcī, isolating a single core mudrā (一印 yīyìn) and its associated mantra. Catalog meta and canwww (T21N1259) record no translator and no dynasty. The text is the most compressed practical instruction in the Mārīcī cluster (KR6j0483KR6j0489).

Abstract

The text gives the yīyìn (single fundamental mudrā) of the Mārīcī rite with its associated mantra and abbreviated visualisation. The format reflects an Indian kalpa convention by which a deity’s full ritual programme can be reduced to a single core mudrā for daily or emergency use; this is the smallest unit of Mārīcī practice. The dating bracket is conservative.
