The sutra known as The Prophecy of Śrī Mahādevī (Skt. Śrīmahādevīvyākaraṇa; Tib. ལྷ་མོ་ཆེན་མོ་དཔལ་ལུང་བསྟན་པ་, lhamo chenmo pal lungten pa, Wyl. lha mo chen mo dpal lung bstan pa) is found in the General Sutra (Wyl. mdo sde) section of the Tibetan Kangyur (Toh 193/739).
This sutra recounts events that took place in the realm of Sukhavati, and begins with Buddha recounting to the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara recounting the accomplishments of Śrī Mahādevī, along with a prophecy in which her future enlightenment was foretold by all the buddhas she venerated, and her many names and benefits of reciting them.
