COMMENTARY:

 

The next five lines of Mantra belong to Five Great Mantra Hearts, the first of which is the Kuan Yin As-You-Will Heart Mantra. If you recite this line, you can succeed in stopping other evil mantras and magic, rending the demons'nets. You can counteract all the mantras and magic of the outside ways, heavenly demons and goblins, and break through the demons' nets.

 

This Mantra is capable of casting out accidental death and melting disasters and obstacles. Suppose you are someone who is supposed to die in an accident—a fire, a flood, or some other calamity like an auto accident, plane crash, or a train or bus wreck. If you recite this line, you won't suffer the accident. All obstacles will be dispelled.

 

Saving all from the karma of hate and suffering; this pure light is even more lucky still! All karma of hatred and pain is eradicated. When you recite this mantra, there is a pure light making things lucky and auspicious; an auspicious cloud appears.
