Seriously ill people are invited to read this sutra and pray to this bodhisattva to help them recover. There are many legends taken from this Sutra.

Buddha Shakyamuni says there that one who recites the name of Kṣitigarbha a thousand times a day for a thousand days will be protected from accidents and diseases throughout his life by divine beings sent by the bodhisattva. "OM HA HA HA VISMAYE SVAHA" or "Namo Kshitigarbha bodhisattvāya!" »
