summary:
  en: The Ārya-samantabhadra-caryā-praṇidhāna-rāja (Bhadracarī) is one of the most popular devotional texts in the Mahāyāna Buddhist tradition. Composed in Sanskrit or Prakrit before the fifth century C.E. it presents a bodhisattva’s aspiration to venerate all Buddhas and attain enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. By the eighth century, it was incorporated as the concluding section of the Gaṇḍavyūha-sūtra. David Gellner (1992: 107) notes that in contemporary Newar Buddhism, the Bhadracarī verses are widely known and regularly recited, particularly in funerary rites and daily devotions. The text consists of 62 verses (Bendall’s Cat., p. 14; Taishō No. 297). (Osto, A Translation of the Bhadracarī).
