Many students have asked me about my Traditional Opening Prayer…it is beyond Sacred and should not be recited without my head nod due to Lineage implications…however, for your OWN PERSONAL SADHANA, here you go, again, never recite this most precious Prayer from the Ancestors without contacting me first because, as Rinpoche says,
“Each time we begin our practice of meditation, we are moved by the awareness that we and all other sentient beings fundamentally have the Buddha nature as our innermost essence, and that to realize it is to be free of ignorance and to put an end, finally, to suffering.
We are inspired with the motivation to dedicate our practice, and our life, to the enlightenment of all beings in the spirit of this prayer, which all the buddhas of the past have prayed:
By the power and the truth of this practice:
May all beings have happiness, and the causes of happiness;
May all be free from sorrow, and the causes of sorrow;
May all never be separated from the sacred happiness which is sorrowless;
And may all live in equanimity, without too much attachment and too much aversion,
And live believing in the equality of all that lives.
