Why is the Bodhisattva practice of Kṣitigarbha (क्षितिगर्भ, 地藏, 지장, ས་ཡི་སྙིང་པོ་, Địa Tạng) the most profound for conquering spirits of all classes and what is his Dharani and Mantra? What are the eight classes of Demon or Spirit and how are they related to the eight poisons, the eight fears and the eight natural dangers? Why is Budddhist exorcism considered tranformational rather than destructive? Which Sutras and Dharanis are powerful in overcoming all classes of demon, spirit, ghost and harm-doer?

KSHITIGARBHA PRAYER (3 times) is:
I prostate and go for Refuge to the Three Jewels and Bodhisattva Kshitigarbhya. I make offerings and request blessings from the great Bodhisattva Kṣitigarbha, who has unbearable compassion for me and all sentient beings and all realms and liberates them from all the suffering, obstacles and poisons. May all beings be free of suffering. May all beings be happy.
Accordingly, his Dharani, which is recommended by Lama Zopa, is:
Chhim bho chhim bho chim chhim bho
akasha chhim bho
vakara chhim bho
amavara chhim bho
vara chhim bho
vachira chhim bho

May this place where I dwell be free from all fear and terror, from all harm from suffering, and from all thunder, lightning, hailstorms, and sudden death, May I never see any bad, sinful thing but always be looked upon by the bodhisattva Ārya Avalokiteśvara with the blessing of his great compassion and be completely protected!
