7 An inner robe covering the lower body. 
8 A 'senior monk' who teaches disciples. Roughly means 'one who knows and teaches the rules'. 
9 A place where wandering monks would stop on their journeys. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate translation. Chinese: '云水众'

11 This sentence was not fully translated. Not sure about a translation for '啊饭纲使者'.

16 I'm not too sure what this sentence is trying to convey.

27 The deification of the North Star in Shingon Buddhism. 
28 A superhuman, in contrast to human bodhisattva.

30 Essentially Indian Onmyoudou. 
31 There may be a better word than this. 
32 Referring to spirit sight.
