The Four powers for confession

修誦金剛薩埵以淨化所有的業障 (2) 懺悔四力

The four powers are the power of support, the power of regretting having done wrong, the power of resolution and the power of action as an antidote.

1. The power of support: In this context, the support is provided by takin refuge in Vajrasattva and cultivating the intention and application aspects of bodhicitta. In other cases, the support would be the particular object to which you address your confession. When you recite the confession of the Sutra in threet Heaps, for example, the power of support is provided by the Thity-five Buddhas. It could also be a teacher, or a representation of the body, speech or mind of the Buddhas-in short, anyone or anything in whose presence you confess .

Before any confession arousing the bodhcitta of intention and application is indispensable. The Buddha taught that confessing your evil deeds and downfalls without arousing bodhicitta, even though you might apply the four powers, will reduce your faults but not purify them altogether. Sincerely giving rise to bodhicita however, will of itself purify all past misdeeds, whatever they be. In THe Way of the Bodhisattva, Santideva says of bodhicitta:

As though they pass through perils guarded by a hero,

Even those weighed down with dreadful wickedness

Will instantly be eed through having bodhicitta

Who then would not place his trust in it?

Just as by fires at the end of time

Great sins are utterly consumed by bodhicitta.

懺悔的四種力量

懺悔的四種力量涵括了依止力、懺悔力(破惡力)、遮止力(防護力)和對治力。

此處所云之依止力，指的是皈依金剛薩埵，以及發起願菩提心和行菩提心。( 即世俗菩提心)

此外，依止力也可能是某個特定所欲懺悔的對境。舉例來說 :當誦持《三聚經》的懺悔文時，三十五佛所提供的皈依(依止)。依止者，或是己之上師，或是諸佛聖尊的身、語、意。簡而言之，即是吾人所依止並懺悔的對境。

於懺悔前，生起願菩提心和行菩薩行更是不可或缺的。
