Wisdom Rite · Exam Guardian

🪷缘起

For exams, Buddhism takes refuge in Mañjuśrī's wisdom. Holding the flaming sword that cuts delusion and riding the lion of fearless eloquence, Mañjuśrī is taught in the Mañjuśrī Paripṛcchā Sūtra. Pre-exam vows aim to rinse the heart with Dharma and settle nervousness, turning aspiration into steady review.

☸️功德利益

An exam-guardian rite aims to steep the mind in Mañjuśrī's name and the Heart Sūtra, increasing composure and clarity so the student meets the test with equanimity. The aim is not a shortcut but to open wisdom, steady the mind, and bring daily work to bear.

🕯️仪轨

Rite: set a Mañjuśrī shrine, recite his name, chant the Mañjuśrī mantra and the Heart Sūtra with dedication, light a wisdom lamp. Recite daily at home or join a temple group—sincerity and steady review go together.

💬答疑

Q: Does the rite guarantee passing? A: No. Exams rest on daily work; the rite steadies the mind and bolsters confidence. Real passage comes from solid preparation; the rite gives clarity and composure.
