It proclaims that the Three Primordial Emperors (i.e., the Heavenly, Earthly, and Water Officials) originated from the primordial chaos of the Supreme Ultimate, stating: “They are entrusted with governing and overseeing all realms; they patrol and examine all beings. All immortal officials, true immortals, celestial deities, earthly spirits, water goddesses, all spirits of the three realms, as well as monarchs, ministers, and all living humans—all are under their jurisdiction.” It exhorts all mortals to observe the Three Primordials’ fasts and abstinences, purify their bodies and minds, recite this scripture, reverently hold and chant the true incantations, and practice diligently. By doing so, one can eliminate disasters and sins, and prolong blessings and longevity.
