བསིལ་བའི་ཚལ་ཆེན་པོ། Mahāśītavanī­sūtra

《大寒林經》是《五護陀羅尼》中的一部。這是在信奉大乘佛教的地區最廣為流傳的佛經之一,常用於禳災解厄。本經能夠保護佛教四眾——比丘、比丘尼、優婆塞、優婆夷,免受那些居住於僻靜山林修行地的眾多鬼魔所製造的種種疾病與障礙。經文尤其針對吸食精氣血肉的魔祟、部多等非人,防止他們傷害在深山中閉關修持的佛教行者。本經由四大天王所宣說,每位天王均有其統領的眾多鬼魔,從而能平定作障者的危害,保護修行人精勤修持佛法。經中也包含如法行持本經的儀軌修法,並講述了如是修持的諸多利益。

The cultivation of generosity, or dāna—giving voluntarily with a view that something wholesome will come of it—is considered to be a fundamental Buddhist practice by all schools. The nature and quantity of the gift itself is often considered less important.
