"Ahhh!...Old Wei, your 'Demon-Pounding Pestle'
is certainly a fearsome weapon!...more deadly even than my
'Demon-Cutting Sword'. When I wielded my trusty blade, a few
stubborn demons remained to oppose me in battle, but as you raise
your gleaming Vajra pestle, the entire family of Mara trembles in terror.
Although a small number of vagrant demon
bands ran away to cringe in the dark recesses of dank and musty
caves, they have since been restrained by the 'Demon-Binding Lariat'
of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, who herd the old frauds into lonely
demon cells. Now, they ceaselessly brood in bewildered silence, and
consider emerging from darkness into oceans of light. When they
finally decide to change their faults, they will be liberated once
again to gather with all superior and good people who experience
happiness and success in the practice of good. This is truly the
great kindness and compassion of the Buddha's teaching.
The recent appearance of the proper Buddhadharma in the West certifies
the vast, limitless penetration of the Buddha principle. Now, Old
Wei, we three can go to yet another world and continue to quell the
ignorant hordes of Mara."
