At that time, the Lord touched the ground with the jewels in his hand, which are the accumulation of friendliness, compassion, generosity, discipline, restrain, gentleness, morality, learning, concentration, insight, firmness, burning effort, merit, and knowledge, and then the endless, limitless worlds were shaken.

You should pay homage to the Tath膩gata and the assembly of the Bodhisattvas!鈥欌��.
