1, which means to send a message to the void dharma circle to understand the ten treasures blessing.

2. Show reverence and respect for the three treasures, so as to demonstrate and attract all beings.

3. It means that Buddhist precepts are really fragrant, which contains the tacit oath of "diligently practicing precepts, being wise, eliminating greed, hubbub and delusion".
