Summary
s.1The Quintessence of the Sun is a long and heterogeneous sūtra in eleven chapters. At the Veṇuvana in the Kalandakanivāpa on the outskirts of Rājagṛha, the Buddha Śākyamuni first explains to a great assembly the severe consequences of stealing what has been offered to monks and the importance of protecting those who abide by the Dharma. The next section tells of bodhisattvas sent from buddha realms in the four directions to bring various dhāraṇīs as a way of protecting and benefitting this world. While explaining those dhāraṇīs, the Buddha Śākyamuni presents various meditations on repulsiveness and instructions on the empty nature of phenomena. On the basis of another long narrative involving Māra and groups of nāgas, detailed teachings on astrology are also introduced, as are a number of additional dhāraṇīs and a list of sacred locations blessed by the presence of holy beings.
s.1《日藏精華》是一部長篇且內容多樣的經典，共分十一章。在王舍城外的迦蘭陀竹園竹林中，釋迦牟尼佛首先向大眾說明盜取供養比丘之物的嚴重後果，以及保護持守法的人的重要性。接下來的部分講述菩薩們從四個方向的佛土被派遣而來，帶著各種陀羅尼，用以保護和利益這個世界。在解釋這些陀羅尼的同時，釋迦牟尼佛為大眾呈現了各種不淨觀禪定和關於現象空性的教導。基於另一個涉及魔和龍族群體的漫長敘事，經文也引入了詳細的占星術教導、多個陀羅尼，以及一份被聖人加持的聖地列表。
