May I further paraphrase:

"Then the Buddha told Lord Indra, 'This is a get out of karmic cycling free card'."

::snerk::

that's ... the cynical view of what the sutra is teaching. it's more 'this mantra can save the world, if only it is taken to heart' teaching but... heehee. yeah.

so jealous! he *studies* sanskrit. how cool is that!

if you look up "usnisa vijaya dharani sutra" it explains more what this mantra is. thanks for resurrecting this!

As far as I'm aware, he's the only guy at the whole university who does it!
it's oedipamaas49. I'm sure he wouldn't be adverse (is that the right word?) to someone popping over and giving him a prod.

And yeah, they offer the course at Cambridge Uni UK.
Funny place :p
