(Benefiting the Living and the Dead -4)   
Therefore, before the Buddhas, World Honored Ones, as well as before the gods, dragons, and the rest of the Eightfold Division, humans and non-humans, I now exhort beings of Jambudvipa to be careful to avoid harming, killing, and doing other unwholesome deeds; to refrain from worshipping ghosts and spirits or making sacrifices to them; and to never call on mountain sprites on the day of death.

是故我今對佛世尊，及天龍八部人非人等，勸於閻浮提眾生臨終之日，慎勿殺害，及造惡緣，拜祭鬼神，求諸魍魎。

If relatives can further do many good deeds during the first forty-nine days after the death of such beings, then the deceased can leave the evil destinies forever, be born as humans and gods, and receive supremely wonderful bliss. The surviving relatives will also receive limitless benefits.

(The Bodhisattava Kishitigarbha Vow Sutra)  

(Benefiting the Living and the Dead -2)  

World Honored One, the bad habits of beings range from minor to major. Since all beings have such habits, their parents or relatives should create blessings for them when they are on the verge of dying in order to assist them on the road ahead. That may be done by hanging banners and canopies; lighting oil lamps; reciting the sacred Sutras; making offerings before the images of Buddhas or sages. Another way to assist them is by reciting the names of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Pratyekabuddhas so that the recitation of each name passes by the ear of the dying one and is heard in his fundamental consciousness. Suppose the evil karma created by beings were such that they should fall into the evil destinies. If their relatives cultivate wholesome causes on their behalf when they are close to death, then their manifold offenses can be dissolved. 

(地藏菩薩本願經)     

(利益存亡品 - 2)  

世尊，習惡眾生，從纖毫間，便至無量。是諸眾生有如此習，臨命終時，父母眷屬，宜為設福，以資前路。或懸旛蓋及燃油燈。或轉讀尊經、或供養佛像及諸聖像，乃至念佛菩薩，及辟支佛名字，一名一號，歷臨終人耳根，或聞在本識。是諸眾生所造惡業，計其感果，必墮惡趣，緣是眷屬為臨終人修此聖因，如是眾罪，悉皆消滅。

(The Bodhisattava Kishitigarbha Vow Sutra)  

(Benefiting the Living and the Dead -1)  

At that time Earth Store Bodhisattva, Mahasattva said to the Buddha, "World Honored One, I see that every single movement or stirring of thought on the part of beings of Jambudvipa is an offense. Beings tend to use up the wholesome benefits they gain; many of them end up retreating from their initial resolve. If they encounter evil conditions, they augment them with every thought. They are like people trying to carry heavy rocks while walking through mud. Each step becomes more difficult and the rocks more cumbersome as their feet sink deeper. If they meet a mentor, he may be strong enough to lighten or even totally remove their burdens. Helping them thus, the mentor will urge them to step on solid ground, pointing out that once they reach a level place they should remain aware of that bad path and never traverse it again.

爾時地藏菩薩摩訶薩白佛言：世尊，我觀是閻浮眾生，舉心動念，無非是罪。脫獲善利，多退初心。若遇惡緣，念念增益。是等輩人，如履泥塗，負於重石，漸困漸重，足步深邃。若得遇知識，替與減負，或全與負。是知識有大力故，復相扶助，勸令牢腳。若達平地，須省惡路，無再經歷。

(The Bodhisattava Kishitigarbha Vow Sutra)      
(The Thus Come One's Praises -21)  
Having heard the Buddha, Thus Come One, praise Earth Store Bodhisattva in that way. Universally Expansive Bodhisattva knelt, placed his palms together, and again addressed the Buddha, saying, "World Honored One, I have long known that this Bodhisattva has both inconceivable spiritual powers and mighty vows. I have questioned the Thus Come One so that beings in the future will know of these benefits. I receive this answer most respectfully. World Honored One, how should this Sutra be titled and how should we propagate it?"

The Buddha said to Universally Expansive, "This Sutra has three titles: the first is The Past Vows of Earth Store Bodhisattva; it is also called Earth Store's Past Conduct; and it is called Sutra of the Power of Earth Store's Past Vows. Because this Bodhisattva repeatedly makes such great and mighty vows throughout long eons to benefit beings, you should all propagate this Sutra in accord with his vows."
After Universally Expansive had heard that, he placed his palms together respectfully, made obeisance, and withdrew.

佛告普廣：此經有三名：一名地藏本願，亦名地藏本行，亦名地藏本誓力經。緣此菩薩，久遠劫來，發大重願，利益眾生，是故汝等，依願流布。
普廣聞已，合掌恭敬作禮而退。
