Sanskrit line

In order to subdue zhega, Jinhua Maben used three sea fixing needles given by Guanyin Bodhisattva, but general Jinhua's own weapon was a magic axe. When general Jinhua came down from the heaven, in order to try his axe, he raised his axe and cut to a huge stone. The stone instantly became two halves, which was the Sanskrit line we saw. The reason why this line of heaven is called Sanskrit line is to borrow its Buddhist meaning. It is said that the heaven and the earth are interlinked. It is said that a baptism can be accepted by turning the scripture tube from the middle at the same time. The way to turn the scripture tube is to turn it clockwise with the right hand, and at the same time recite the six character Daming mantra "hum Wen Ma Ni Bei Mi Hong Hong" Each turn is equivalent to reciting the six character mantra. The more times you turn, the more devout you are to Buddha and Bodhisattva.
