The Dhāraṇī of Dhvajāgrakeyūrā

The Dhāraṇī of Dhvajāgrakeyūrā, taught by the Buddha to Śakra in the Heaven of the Thirty-Three after the gods' defeat by the asuras, ensures victory, protection, and blessings to those who recite, retain, or wear it. The dhāraṇī manifests as the deity Dhvajāgrakeyūrā, who eliminates fear, affording protection, and granting all good things such as good reputation and abundance.
