"Good man, the dust of the earth can be counted, but the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra cannot be counted; the drops of water in the ocean can be counted, but the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra cannot be counted. Good man, imagine a room with a length and width of one hundred yojanas each and a height of five hundred yojanas, filled with sesame seeds. At its door is an Immortal who takes out one seed every hundred kalpas. By the time the sesame seeds are exhausted, it would be impossible to count the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra once.

At its side is an Immortal who, using a cloth of ghasi ghasi, grinds this mountain once every hundred kalpas. By the time the mountain is exhausted, the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra cannot be counted. Good man, suppose there is a great sea with a depth of eighty-four thousand yojanas, as vast as the large size circled by Iron Mountain, the drops of water as small as one-hundredth of a strand of hair can be counted, but the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra cannot be counted. Good man, suppose the leaves in a sigarakka tree garden can be counted one by one, but the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra cannot be counted.
Good man, suppose all the men, women, young men, and virgins in the Four Great Continents are all seventh-stage Bodhisattvas, their merit cannot compare to the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra. Good man, within the twelve months of a year or thirteen months in a leap year, the raindrops falling incessantly day and night can be counted, but the accumulation of merit from chanting the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra cannot be counted.
No need to speak further, within ten million years, the merit of offering fine clothes and other offerings to me and other good beings cannot compare to the accumulation of merit from the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra, let alone the merit of offering to me alone?"
