The Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance (Li Fo Da Chan Hui Wen) is an important scripture that allows us to repent before Buddhas. By reciting it, we sincerely ask Guan Yin Bodhisattva to help us repent and eliminate karmic obstacles accumulated from our past and present lives.
Some of its functions include repenting the karmic obstacles created in our past and present lives; seeking forgiveness from someone you have hurt in past relationships; resolving long-term karmic conflicts and karmic obstacles; and repenting inappropriate actions such as being disrespectful to Buddhas or Bodhisattvas, or damaging statues or images of Buddhas or Bodhisattvas, etc.
For daily recitation: Generally, 1 to 7 times per day, throughout one’s whole life. Avoid reciting it from 10pm to 5am.
Prayer: Before reciting this text, you can say the following prayer: “May the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva protect and bless me, <your full name>, help me to repent and eliminate the karmic obstacles (in the body or a specific part of the body), grant me good health and wisdom.”
Note: After reciting the Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance, if you feel soreness or discomfort in any part of your body, it means that the karmic obstacles have been activated and transformed into spirits. This is a good sign, as you can deal with the consequences now rather than later, and reduce the risk of their turning into a major illness later in life. Generally, you should recite 4 to 7 Little Houses or more until you feel better. Those suffering from severe pain or illnesses should recite additional Little Houses until recovery.
