　　 "Then he should stay in an unoccupied place, sit rightly and visualize the image of Buddha, as if the Buddha is in front of him within one arm”s length. He should constantly meditate on the image of Buddha, never forget or lose it. If he temporarily forgets or loses the image, he should go back to the sublime-abode and watch the Buddha statue again."

　　 "When watching the statue, he should greatly respect and worship it as if the real body of Buddha is in front of him, watch it in detail, and do not treat it as a statue any longer. When he has seen that, he should respectfully circle clockwise around the Buddha, offer and sustain the Buddha with exquisite flowers, ground incenses, paste incenses, and various materials."

　　 "He should always watch in such a way, with single-mind, as if the Bhagavan is staying in front of him. ”The Buddha, the Bhagavan who sees all, hears all, knows all, must completely know my heart.” By thinking that, when the visualization has been completed, he should go back to the unoccupied place, visualize the Buddha in front of him, never forget or lose the image."

　　 "With single-mind, Practice that diligently for 21 days, if the felicities and virtues that he has accomplished are enough, he will immediately see the Tathagata appear in front of him. If he cannot see the Tathagata due to the karma-obstacles that caused by the evildoings in his previous lives, then if he can diligently keep practicing with single-mind, do not regress, and think nothing else, then he still will see the Tathagata quickly."

Thus, one should constantly and diligently practice it without laziness or dissipation, be concentrated, set his mind on seeing the Buddha in front of him."

　　 "Practices in such a way, when one sees the Buddha for the first time, one would think: ”Is this a real Buddha, or only an image

　　” If he know what he see is a real Buddha, then he should kneel down in front of the Buddha, join his palms, worship and think: ”Inside all hair-tips that spread over the universes, inside all atoms, there are infinite Buddhas. Their powers and virtues are boundless. Because of their great compassion, now they appear as one and come in front of me. I should request, Bhagavan, please teach me the great Samadhi Dharma of Tathagata”s Unimaginable State.” If he hears any teaching from the Tathagata, he should decisively and completely believe in everything the Buddha says, do not be doubtful, then he will immediately acquire this Samadhi at that place."

　　 "If one cannot ask the Buddha due to his karma-obstacles, he should think: ”All dharma(phenomenon)s are like illusions, like flames, like nebulas, like shadows, like images, like dreams.
