However innumerable all beings are, I vow to save them all
However inexhaustible my delusions are, I vow to overcome them all
However immeasurable the Dharma Teachings are, I vow to fathom them all
The Buddha's Path is endless, I vow to follow it to its very end.
Commentary: these vows are the Bodhisattva Vows. The following reference for the Four Universal Vows contain the Buddhist dharanis for burning off evil karma and promoting good karma.
