Great Dorjé Chang, Tilopa, Naropa, Marpa, Milarépa, Prince of Dharma, Gampopa, Karmapa, who knows all of the past, present and future, the Holders of the Four Great and Eight Lesser Lineages, Drikung, Talung, Tsalpa, glorious Drukpa and many others,

I pray to you who have realised the deep path of Mahamudra, the Dhagpo Line of Oral Transmission, the peerless protector of all beings. I also will uphold the tradition of the Kagyu Lamas; grant your blessing that I may follow the example of their wondrous deeds.

Weariness with Samsara is taught to be the feet of meditation. Thus the true meditator is uninvolved with food, wealth or anything and cuts his bondage to this life. Grant your blessing that he may be unattached to success and honour.

Devotion is taught to be the head of meditation. Thus the true meditator constantly prays to his Guru, the one who opens the door to the treasure of the essential instructions. Grant your blessing that uncontrived devotion may arise in him. Non-distraction is taught to be the actual meditation.

Thus, whatever arises, the true meditator simply rests within the uncontrived, in the very freshness of the essence of thought. Grant your blessing that he may be free from the idea of 'something to meditate on'.

The essence of thought is taught to be the Dharmakaya. Nothing whatsoever - yet it manifests as anything whatsoever, appearing in unhindered play to the true meditator. Grant your blessing that he may realise the indivisibility of Samsara and Nirvana.

In all my lives may I never be without a true Guru and may I make proper use of the splendour of Dharma. Perfecting all the qualities of the Levels and Paths, may I swiftly achieve the state of Dorjé Chang

TÉ-YATA  PENTSEN DRYA AHWA BODHA NA-YÉ SO-HA

È-MA-HO!  How wonderful!
The wondrous Buddha of infinite radiance sits with the great Compassionate Lord to his right and the Bodhisattva of Great Might to his left and is sur­rounded by countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Beyond all reckoning are the happiness, joys and marvels in his pure land known as 'Déwachen'. As soon as I and others leave this life may we be born there directly, without the delay caused by another birth. Once there, may we behold Amitabha´s face. May all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the ten di­rections give their blessing that all this may come true without hindrance.
