10 Merits of Reciting the Buddha’s Name

I. Day and night, one is constantly protected by the mighty celestial generals and their countless retinues, who guard invisibly.

2. One is constantly protected and guarded by the Twenty-Five Great Bodhisattvas, such as Avalokiteshvara and all other Bodhisattvas

3. Constantly protected by all Buddhas day and night, Amitabha Buddha continually emits light to embrace and receive this person.

4. All hungry ghosts, whether yakṣas or rākṣasas( demon ), cannot harm them; all venomous snakes, poisonous dragons, and toxic substances cannot affect them.

5. All calamities of fire, water, unjust enemies, swords and arrows, imprisonment, shackles, untimely death, and wrongful death shall be entirely avoided.

6. All past transgressions shall be eradicated; The souls wrongfully taken shall find liberation, No longer bound by retribution

7. Dreaming Righteously at Night, or Dreaming Again of Amitabha Buddha’s Sublime Form

8. The heart is always joyful, the complexion radiant, strength abundant, and all undertakings auspicious.

9. Always reverently honor, make offerings to, and joyfully worship all people in the world, as if paying homage to the Buddha. 

10. At the moment of death, the mind is free from fear, and right mindfulness arises. One beholds Amitabha Buddha and the assembly of Bodhisattvas, who hold golden lotus flowers to guide the soul to rebirth in the Western Pure Land. There, throughout all future eons, one enjoys sublime bliss.
