The Widespread Distribution of Usnisa Vijaya Dharani
Sacred Stone Tablets Over
Continents, Oceans, Lakes, and Seas
Upasaka Chua Boon Tuan revised and cdited the Siddham Sanskrit version of
Usnisa Vijaya Dharani, The Sanskrit Revised Complete Version of Usnisa Vijaya Dharani by
Dharma Master Vajrabodhi was taken as the core text. Using the Chinese-Sanskrit Dictionary
as the yardstick, he proof-read the core text with the Sanskrit text of Dharma Master
Subhakara-Simha and Chi Song Acarya (Guru). He also made references to all Sanskrit Usnisa
Vijaya Dharani in Anecdota Oxoniensia, Aryan Series, Volume 1, Part III edited by Muller
Friedrich Max. Any omissions and mistakes were then revised and corrected.
During the period of late 1993 to 2000, members of the Malaysian Usnisa Vijaya Dharani
Group Chanting Session resolved to accomplish the great vows of Earth Store Bodhisattva.
The newly revised Sanskrit Usnisa Vijaya Dharani was carved on granite stone tablets that
were donated by the members. The back of the tablets were carved with the Sanskrii names
of Shakyamuni Tathagata, Ratna-shikin and the Seven Tathagatas, the Four Maha Bodhisattvas
and Maitreya Bodhisattva. Each tablet measured 60.96 cm by 45.72 cm, was about 2.5 cm
thick and weighed about 20 kg. These Sacred Stone Tablets were later dropped into the
Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, Arctic Ocean, Antarctic Ocean, South China
Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Red Sea, Black Sea, Caspian Sea as well as other big lakes and
sources of some major rivers.
