Summary
The Sutra carved on the stonc wall in the Zhong Yuan Monastery of Suzhou,
China, reads:
To lead all beings of four modes of birth and nine types of life form,
To attam Maha Parinirvana,
No being, in fact, has been liberated,
No teoching surpasses the Vajra Sutra.
To eradicate the offences and accumulate blessings,
To purify all evil paths,
No sutra supersedes the usnisa vijaya Dharani.
