'''The Discourse of the Dharani of the Buddha’s Essence''' (Skt. ''Buddhahṛdayadhāraṇīdharmaparyāya''; Tib. སངས་རྒྱས་སྙིང་པོའི་གཟུངས་ཀྱི་ཆོས་ཀྱི་རྣམ་གྲངས།, [[Wyl.]] ''sangs rgyas snying po’i gzungs kyi chos kyi rnam grangs'') is a short work in which [[Shakyamuni Buddha]], addressing an immense gathering of [[bodhisattva]]s, teaches two [[dharani]]s to be recited as a complement to the practice of recollecting the Buddha, and then explains the beneficial results of reciting them. The significance of the teaching is marked by miraculous signs, and by the [[god]]s offering flowers and ornaments. The text also provides a set of correspondences between the eight ornaments offered by the gods and eight qualities that ornament bodhisattvas.<ref>84000 Translating the Words of the Buddha.</ref>
