About this talk. In this 104-minute session from a Mahāmudrā International Retreat, Lama Zopa Rinpoche leads an extended guru yoga practice centered on elaborate offerings: the teacher guides visualization of the Buddhist lineage while systematically making offerings of water, clothing, ornaments, and mandala representations to the merit field. Throughout, practical retreat instructions surface—guidance on maintaining precepts for those fasting, ethical practices to avoid harming insects, and abbreviating rituals when time constrains—alongside extended prayers for world peace and the ending of conflict. The session culminates in refuge-taking, bodhisattva vow renewal, and an intricate food-offering ritual where all merit extends to every sentient being. Suited for practitioners with prior tantric background.

Then people don’t interrupt by standing up. So we just let Rinpoche come in. Let him do his prostrations as many as he wants. Let him sit on the throne. And the Omaze carries on, and Rinpoche will interrupt.

Have no fear. When he wants to say something, he will do that. So the purpose of just simply carrying on, it gives Rinpoche the opportunity to check how the retreat’s being led. It gives Rinpoche the opportunity to check the chanting’s correct. It gives Rinpoche the opportunity to check the translation in our books.

It gives him the opportunity to emphasize, make comments and emphasize certain aspects of how the practice should be led or not led. So when Rinpoche comes in, there’s preferences for us not to stand up but just simply carry on. There’s no disrespect. The other thing is Rinpoche has shown a lot of concern about those people who have made the who are on precepts for eating before twelve. So you’ve shown a lot of concern that those people should be able to eat before twelve, those who are fasting.

So if the session carries on beyond eleven thirty and you’ve made equipment to fast, then you should not stay. You should go and eat and then come back. So just go and eat quickly and then come back if the session is continuing. But don’t break that precept because unless you’re not going to eat for the rest of the day, don’t break that precept. Go and eat and then come back.

That would be what Rinpoche would want. He doesn’t want people to break those precepts. The third announcement is we have a little bit of an insect control problem, insect damage control problem. So it seems one thing is the toilets, especially at nighttime, after you’ve been to toilet, always put the lid down. And she was supposed to put the lid down anyway, thinking it’s the jaws of the Lord of Death, and you’re closing them.

So anyway, we’re supposed to close the lid. But it seems at nighttime with the light on, then a lot of insects coming in, they’re drowning in the toilet bowl. Another person has suggested that there are these other mantras that we’re not reciting as part of the retreat, but they should be recited before you come to the room. And Rumsheng may introduce that a little bit later. And these are the preliminary mantras.

Mantras for blessing the speech, mantras for blessing the mala, mantras for increasing the power of whatever activities are done, And there’s a mantra also for blessing the feet. So you’ll find these in volume one. They’re at the very beginning of the morning prayer section. So that mantra for blessing the feet then in case and then you do tread on an insect then there can be some benefits. You should recite that and then spit all over the sole of the foot.

So actually all over the shoe. All over the shoe because it’s a shoe that’s going to touch the creature. So Rinpoche recites this mantrum and spits all over the tires of the car because the tires of the car that touch the creature. Okay. So we just have to be very, very mindful about these creatures.

So we reached the offering bar section. Section. We’re going to continue. Rumshu’s expected to come down again, but we’ll just carry on till he gets here and then carry on until he interrupts. So first piece, good motivation.

Doing this puja, remembering the benefits, remember as Kirti Bhavan Krum shares advice, as Rinpoche read out before, that this one practice contains the essence of all Sūtra and Tantra practices. Like many rivers flowing into one ocean, all the essential points are gathered into this one practice. It’s the essence of the scripture of the joyful ones. The manifestation scripture of the joyful ones. By doing this practice, even just once a day, plants the seed, the entire path to enlightenment, and especially has the particular quality of the verse lojong versus the thought transformation versus.

So then with the mindfulness of precious this opportunity is, and remembering the motivation that Rinpoche guided for us. That this practice, this profound Guru Yoga practice, we are doing this for others, for infinite beings. Because we cannot stand to see them suffering. So in one’s heart, cherishing others more than self. Top of page twenty one.

Teen down transcendent destroyers, the one gone beyond the foe destroyer, the completely perfected fully awakened being, perfect in knowledge and in good conduct. Sugata, know the world, supreme guide of human beings to be tamed. Atisha of gods and humans, the founded in doubt and send and destroyer, the fully awakened one and to all of you here, I offer this bath possessed of all qualities. So this is very powerful when you have a drowsy mind, not clear due to pollution from outside. Other beings have a negative karma, inner pollution, broken vows, and samaya.

So the essence of the offering, visionizing the merit field, coming into the bath bath house, and then the essence of the offering is generating blissfulness in the mind of the of the gurus and the objects in the merit field. The bathhouse is an extremely sweet fragrance, a crystal floor and beautiful sparkling jewel pillars. The roof is covered by a canopy decorated with shining pearls. Just as after the birth of Buddha, the gods made offerings of pure water. I also offer a bath with the pure water of the gods.

Holy body created by ten million excellent virtues. Holy speech fulfilling the hopes of infinite migratory beings. Holy mind seeing all the existence as it is. I offer this bath to Tibon, Deutsche Chang. I offer this bath to the holy bodies, the lineage grows extensive conduct.

I offer this fast to the holy bodies, the lineage grows profound view. I offer this fast to lineage bodies, lineage grows of last practice. I offer this fast to the holy bodies, all lineage grows. Eyes to view all the vast teachings, supreme gateway to liberation for the fortunate, using skillful means to lovingly subdue, to the illuminating spiritual friends that offer this bath. Goya Samaja, blissful Heruka, most glorious by Jabbarawa and the rest.

Protect us to the four wheels of countless tantras. Dear symbiote of deities, I offer this path. I offer this to the holy bodies of founding Buddhas. I offer this bath to protecting Dharma. I offer this bath to guiding Sangha.

I offer this bath to three precious gems. In times long past before the Bhagawan, you committed supporting as your child or beings, who accomplished practices according to Dharma, to assembly of Dharma protectors and supporters that offer this path. To the five long life goddesses, supporters of the Dharma, all the protectors in the snow land of Tibet, especially those of this country and this place, to all the local gods, nagas, landlords, and spirits are offered as bath. All the targeters and their princes with many jewel vases of scented water, Beautifully filled up with excellent songs and with a variety of music are offered as bath. And now dry their bodies with incomparably clean, sweet, stunning cloth.

Just as a goldsmith polishes gold already pure and refined, so do I offer the best fragrance that pervades billions of universes to the holy bodies, the controlled ones. By offering these soft light divine clothes with indestructible faith in those who attain the indestructible holy body, may I also achieve the vajra holy body. Because the conquerors were adorned by the natural ornaments, the marks, and signs, they did not need any other kind of ornament. But by offering these supreme jewel ornaments, may all sentient beings achieve the holy body adorned by all the marks and signs. By offering this auspicious vase beautified by jewels and filled with various essences, may all stains of karma and delusion be purified.

May I and all sentient beings be imbued with the moisture of bodhicitta. Offering the crown. With most excellent light radiating forth in a ten direction, splendor of good fortune ablaze just everywhere, this crown ornament of precious golden powders to the crown of the Shaky king I offer. May thereby the precious teachings spread in the ten directions, the world become pervaded by major happiness. And by its becoming the crown ornament of transmigrators, gods included, may they all gain the level of one endowed with the ten powers.

Out of your loving compassion for myself and my graders, oh, Bhagawam, please remain as long as I continue to make offerings by the force of your magical powers. Some prostrations verses. We do one time to better, one time English. Your compassion grants even the sphere of great bliss, supreme state of the three kayas in an instant. Guru with a jewel like body, vajra holder, I prostrate at your lotus feet.

You are the wisdom, knowledge, all infinite conquerors, appearing in any way that subdues, whose supreme skillful means you manifest as a saffron robed monk. Holy refuge savior, I prostrate at your feet. You eliminate all faults and their instincts and are a treasury of infinite precious qualities. So source of benefit and bliss without exception. Perfect pure guru, I prostrate at your feet.

Teacher of gods and all in nature of Buddhas, the source of eighty four thousand Puredhammas, You tarry above the whole host of aryas. Kind guru, I prostrate to you. To gurus dwelling in the three times and ten directions, the supreme, presupreme jewels and all worthy of homage, with faith, conviction, and ocean of lyric praise, I prostrate manifesting as many bodies as atoms of the world. Then offering, page bottom page thirty one. So as we make each offering, also remembering all the offerings set out here, all the offerings set out in all the various NPMT centers.

So as in Mongolia, two thousand sales offerings, in Kopan over five hundred. Then Land of Medicine Buddha. Then Taiwan. Then all the various different centers. Wherever the offerings set out, there are also Rimshi’s houses.

Rimshi’s house in Aptos in California. Three hundred, five hundred bores? Less. Over three hundred bores. And then many, many small lights.

So many candles. Every day, a hundred and eight candles. And then a huge butter tea for his harness. And then many precious objects around the house and many flowers and so forth. So wherever there are offerings set out, then remembering days, So you can turn back to page twenty nine.

Extensive offering practice. Extensive offering practice. Excellent offering. The extensive offering practice. Oh, extensive.

Just got there. That’s an excellent offering practice. Excellent Australian. Excellent Australian offering practice. What was it done, right?

Finished? No. No. I just finished prostration prayers. Prostration prayer.

We just finished the prostration prayer, didn’t We just finished the prostration. We just got to the offering practice. Didn’t do anything. The prostration part finished? Finished.

Oh, nowhere. The leaves or the offering is not offering is not Didn’t didn’t recite the mantra. We did that earlier this morning. Didn’t recite the mantra. Didn’t make charity.

You have done. Well, this morning we did it. We did it early this morning, the mantra. You did the mantra? Early this morning.

What? Well, this morning we recited the mantra to bless the offerings, but we haven’t made charity and we haven’t we haven’t Oh, then, sir. Oh, that’s okay. I was just describing the different offerings in the different centers Oh, that’s okay. In Rinpoche’s house.

Oh, unfortunately. Unfortunately, all wonderful teachings. Unfortunately. Unfortunately. It can be it depends on thinking.

Yeah. Up to south. Everyone went the monk from Shineland, from Narendra, went forth where some of the teachings in the past. They’re all there right now might be nighttime there. So they all left for teaching.

Even the dog. Not for the not for the teachings, I think somebody dog trainer. I think he went to dog trainer. The on the dog. Even that went for not for some of teachings, but the dog dog trainer.

Because he bites sometimes. But he bought on a certain people. Maximo, the Italian, the director of international office. And one guest, a kitchen on top, and then that that pet. So some people yeah.

Some people got biting. So I’m not sure. He said, you can’t really tell. Of for his son’s teachings, he went for the dog trainer. So I don’t know what the maybe they left maybe they are all maybe they are left off of old offerings there.

Anyway but Washington, ex director of Bachapani, John Jackson, who was there for a long time. He became a monk and well, I think he was asked to be a monk. And after a long time sorry. I’m not sure whether he’s there. He went for to receive his main practice, Heruka Buddha Mandala.

He went forward to his commentary from Mr. Nansi Taemang. There’s one man from Nālānda, Tianjin, who is making the making exchange of the Washington. The place is called for the main road list. It is not met yet, but even that would leave positive imprint for the neighbors.

Just when the people passing through, just seeing just seeing Buddha, just seeing Buddha’s name. Just as word Buddha, seeing the lay label at the gate at main road. The main road that goes to the house, you see. First, even seeing that, you know, I’m a. But so with the positive imprint, even just by that, people are passing through.

So there’s a expense offering there. Couple of months there, there are also expense offerings offered by Jane, Nan Jane and also healthcare center. Particular, I think maybe Taiwan would be also Mongolia, one room just rent for offering expense over there. There were six ladies who would take turns to my offering. They come They come voluntarily to my offerings and they’re very happy to do that.

So personal lives to to freedom from options and our suffering and bring them to full enlightenment. If I must teach enlightenment, I’m going to make charity and offerings. And other offices in Kumbai, Washington and Cabernet upstairs. Also often there, often here, also in my room there. There.

We give to every we give to every health beings, Every hungry ghost. Every animals. Every human being. Every sort of being. Every sort of being.

Every intermediate test pins. Government offering on their behalf or together. So this is it. Every single offering that we have, that is a range that’s offered in the organization in Kumbai, over here, other places. So it becomes often of every single sentient beings.

Every single helping, hungry animals, beings. Every even one tiny piece of light, one flower, one water, become often often for the often for offering belong to every single single being offering from every single every single single beings. So this way, all those all those people in Africa, where have no food or dying. In any part of the world, people are dying of starvation, lack of merit, and so much stealing, and creating so much cause of poverty with attachment. They all get married.

So many people homeless taking married. So many people who are jobless taking married. So many people say. They’re having very hard life. Moments were living, they get they all get married.

I know sick people as well. So all the same thing, they get merit too. Those sentient beings, even the human beings have never met dharma and doesn’t know dharma. Motivation what they have in their life, their whole life, is just attachment, clinging only not only one’s own happiness, but happiness only this life. Very short term happiness, pleasure.

Then all actions become whatever they do in everyday life, everything becomes non virtue. Because motivation is only non virtue, so action becomes only non virtue. And the result result, what they experience from those actions is only suffering, not happiness. Only suffering in the whole life, Except except a few. Some who has good who has naturally born with a good heart.

Born with a good heart. Except those with some good heart. Otherwise, like that. Just living the past good karma, some pleasure what they have, some success, some pleasure what they have in this life, but they just live on the past life with some good karma, collecting the past. But that is constantly finishing.

They’re not collecting extra. So they all get married, but giving the offering to them and making charity to them, and we offer on their behalf. So this is this is a great puja, the happiness of all sentient beings. So So bless the offerings So there’s some self-cherishing thought, you see. So I was not here this morning.

Then those who didn’t who didn’t get them offerings, the pleasant offerings with the man. That’s incense. Can we do some incense? That’s incense. Janet?

Is there incense? Can you like seven sticks of incense? Because each offering has ten benefits. The benefit we’re offering, then there’s a little bit different result and happiness. In a sense, particular result of morality to be able to practice pure, living pure morality.

But just in general, then the rest are similar ones. All the hell beings in your heart, all the hungry ghosts in your heart, all the animals in your heart, all the human beings in your heart, all the things in your heart. The envious things. The most precious kind and precious one. What they have in this mail offering, other offerings, Offerings are here, which are naturally please.

And Project. We offer. It was now we offer towards older. Make offering all the offerings here in my room up there, then all the rest of our extensive offerings. There was a.

Towards all the tenderization statues, do the scriptures. Permanent essence through the virtual friend from both sides. Means another way to think is manifestation. Make all these options. So offer all this.

Now, please, with me. I’m particularly remember often the present and present teachings. But this main teaching of the heart teaching of all the teachings, which is the main part of separating sentient beings from the oceans of sanskrit suffering and cause delusion and karma. Offering to them, to all those teachings, scriptures. Also, you know, when we met teaching or offering to all the teaching, there’s also golden light sūtra, Ayasamatha Sūtra by making offering to that offering to present private teachings, collect another unconceivable merits.

We I think we approach just together to approach together with one, plus all of them, all those statues to the scriptures, all the the rest of all all of itself. And I will make offer the offering. The exchange offering here in my room, in the the restaurant organization in the center, the best in nature and complete, then those other places. We offer to say Medicine Buddha particularly. We already met often before when we met often to the Guru Puja Medieval field, they are there.

But particularly because it has an inherent benefit if you make often too. Great success, very powerful success, just even that you are protected by twelve groups of nurses those protectors and they are surrounded by seven hundred thousand the protectors. They all protect you, look after you, protect you every day. So by making offering specifically to a generalist, then we we get the same we get the same merit, having that offering. Having met often to all the Buddhas.

The medicine Buddha also might have the same benefit. Particular vision to generate compassion, to be able to take full responsibility of all the sentient beings, to free them from oceans of some sort of suffering and bring them to life as possible. Then open to Buddhist Sri Lanka so that one can, as Buddhist Sri Lanka fulfills the wishes of all happiness, one can instantly fulfill their wishes of happiness. Next, we offer all the options the hearer, and that is our exchange of the famous Sindhakoma, those are the places in Nairobi, all those offerings. Towards all the whole objective in India, I’m sure there’s an Indian question, no doubt.

What is recognized is in India. It’s in America. What is recognized, what is known to the people. So when we make the offering to the rest of the world and that offering to ourselves However, the project to pump together towards all the hosts that are in India. Now we make all the offerings here, offer all the offerings here, which I mentioned in the list.

That Tibet. In the form of statue in the form of statue liberating so many thousands of sentiments every day. And then and the most secret high class statue in settlement street. So that’s one that everybody goes to take place in the actual appeared statue of the living, which contains a tree that Haiagirwa and from a red bird absorbed the tree and tree is inside of that. It’s a relic inside the statue.

So that one yogi to the Haiagirwa higher level. So when you came to, I think, Sarah in the past when you came, so I think we got yes. So, the red bird, the higher kebab man said, absolutely the tree. The tree is inside of that statue. That’s why the statue is so famous.

David Monashi said, the statue, meaning to be meaningful to behold just by seeing you get liberated, everybody get liberated from the volumes. And we’re writing the statue of Maybe twelve, maybe maybe eight eight fingers or more size of statue. Then met by Mantushiri but sponsored by Genesee and then specified also by Bajaparth. I think maybe, say, four thousand years ago or something like So it’s a main it’s a main diversion object of Lama teacher. Writing the Dong Thambas monastery where the Kadampass started traditional studies from main place of Katam tradition.

So all the whole objects that represent Tibet. All whole objects that represent Tibet. And offer all the offerings. Offer all the different offerings here. All the different offerings.

Which are naturally in place. All the offerings in Appomattox Centre, which is in place. And the offerings in other places. It was all the hold up to that place in Nepal. Most precious one, Stūpa, which is covered by the earth bound inside.

Crystal stupa a nature appeared when Kathmandu was filled with a lake. Manufacturers of all Buddhas, Buddha himself, back on that on that large mountain next to Shanglongan called Langloongdin, Buddhah gave a petition about Kathmandu, how holy it is and how so many Buddhas and Buddhas saw us all the time. And predicted about Nepal and what’s happening now, what’s happening in the recent years, what has been happening in the future, which is predicted by Buddha. And in this text, already Buddha has put in this text, for long run-in petition of the long run. Long run maybe, but they may never never the mountain.

So petition at the long run mountain. So it’s inside. Then on top, there’s a stool built by a paper and paper and paper and paper So the main thing is the inside one. Then that’s the most precious, and incredible, unbelievable. That whole mountain also some Heruka Mandala.

So some yogi’s case when you see that. So then all of them based on which one is to come about. The truth and all the rest of the most precious one that which has that which are building the super and making practice within the Buddhism in s so much that they preserve so many beings become enlightened. Buddhism now spread all over the world. Tibetan monumentalism, maybe tens of thousands in the West.

People in the West are unable to meet with the Dharma and follow the path of enlightenment. They’re able to be so fortunate and able to make their lives meaningful, find answers in their life which they cannot find in Western cultural science. The science knowledge, which includes us, that we have this incredible opportunity to learn dharma and to make our life meaningful. Every day closer to enlightenment is due to that stupa. So we my offering to all the colleges in Nepal.

And offer any of these gurus in Nepal. Make strong prayer. If you have been in Nepal, you have seen the stupa, you may remember that. If you have been in Nepal, then you think that you are there standing at the stupa. Make strong prayer with two palms together.

May I be able to exercise from group to person? Think that’s the possibility of this thing in this very lifetime. How you are thinking about this all of the best wishes to the problem, think the name. Think the name, if you see in the picture, You visualize that. You think of that in the prayer.

Then then next prayer, may all may all the his holy wishes be succeed immediately. Make that prayer from the heart, from bottom bottom of heart without delay and second to be exercised. May all the mainland Chinese official totally change their mind and they devote totally devote and do everything do totally dedicated and do exactly what his wishes. So that’s that’s in brief. In in brief.

For many other things, I’m content in this without elaborating the words. May all the apprentice centers to be most beneficial be most beneficial, able to cause the safety in the refuge and localize commercial business in the household or something else. May all the projects every center has be succeed immediately by receiving all the needs. Seventy five fifty five statue made the construct without leaving second to continue to complete that mainly about intermediate intermediate with addition in this world. And to be most beneficial, able to call life and also able to call gender, but it’s in the hospital and then bring stop all the violence and the war of payment, digital privacy, and the standard of power, all the antisemitism of the problem in this world, and bring all the and Deming to enlightenment as good as possible.

And also we pray about the as well as famous and powerful place. They were achieved immortality immortal realization to Maruti. There’s a special stone here, so anybody who prayed that, all the wishes can succeed. So it can be prayer from can be made prayer from here. So all the wars all the all the wars, all the violence that’s happening now in this world, that’s happening that’s happening now in this world, in Iraq and all those, especially Iraq and all those other.

May be stopped, all this be stopped. And so much peace and happiness and love and compassion in everyone’s heart, especially those countries where there’s so much violence happening again and again. However, it is still happening in Palestinian or whatever, all those various countries where so much violence happened, Colombia, immediately be stopped and only to have only peace and happiness and by having compassion in all their hearts. So make strong prayer where people could prepare their success. All the dangers of terrorists.

Which is many of the problems related to that, say, to total change in all their hearts in lot of kinds of combustion. Made love and compassion be generated in all their hearts. We offer all these offerings here with the National Industries. We offer all the additional offerings in the region, all the countries in the region, are in place and those other places with an offering in which are in place Towards all the whole object that was in this world. Put together towards all the the gurus there and all the and this world and the rest of the rest of the world.

So we offer the music offerings to all the holy objects, the gurus, the media field and then all the holy objects, the holy objects, then all the holy objects in this world perform music. As each music has also ten benefits. So different drums and cymbal bells, which one has ten benefits. Then manifested out all the each offering, Liberty Sky, like number of of different varieties. First, they’re drinking water offering, the nectar, feeding feed, flower offering, So there are different layers.

Numbers are often getting that first, the second, the third flower. Think about each one numberless. Then at the end, the number is the five dissolves, sense of enjoyment, middle music, cake in the food, the center of water and the heart. The divine divine dress. So, you know, the number is it has to be signed, it’s substance and it’s a certain royalty.

Think if I’m getting also sixteen orphan cartridges, Making those various offerings. After So even though there are so many in the medieval, but however, the essence of guru, this the meditation that generates bliss at each offering as a mate. So that’s one of the basis of visualizing those. So that is required, you know, great initiation having received from that. Refuge, savior’s treasures of compassion, eminent supreme merit field, with pure faith, I present to you a billion times over.

Mount Meru and the four continents, the seven precious royal emblems, precious minor symbols and more, perfectly delightful environments in their beings, and a great treasure of all the gods and humans use or desire. By the merit of having offered this mandala to the merit field, may I and all sentient beings be able to meet the pure as in teachings victorious ones, which contain the biographies of those eminent ones who live in pure morality, and the brave attitude to follow extensively Bodhisattvas conduct, and practice the yogas of two stages, essence of which is transcendental wisdom of non dual bliss and voidness. May I and all sentient beings be able to meet this pure complete teaching of Lama Tsongkhapa, the unification of sūtra and tantra right this second. To please you venerable gurus, I offer objects actually set out in the vision of a pleasure grove on the shore of a wish granting sea. Strew with thousand petal lotuses that captivate all minds.

These offerings arise from Susara and Ivana’s virtues. Everywhere of flowers, the worldly and transcendent virtues of the three doors, myself and others, and myriad fragrance Mantabhaja offerings. It is laden with fruits of three trainings, two stages, and five paths. I offer a libation of china tea, saffron bright, delicately perfumed, rich with a hundred flavors. The five hooks, five lamps, and so forth, are purified, transformed, and increased into an ocean of nectar.

I offer illusion like consorts of youthful spender, slender and skilled in the sixty four hours of love, a host of beautiful messenger bikinis, field born, mantra born, and simultaneously born. Unobstructed great wisdom, simultaneous with bliss. The sphere of the actual unelaborated nature of all things. Spontaneous and indivisible beyond thought and expression. Supreme Ultimate bodhicitta, I offer you to you.

To cure the four hundred and four affliction caused diseases. I offer all kinds of potent medicines, and I offer myself as a servant to please you. Pray keep me in your service as long as space endures. Without living Buddhist abound or even one of the realization cannot reach enlightenment, present image. So therefore, I am going to put this abound.

I go for refuge, the Three Jewels. I confess in devitory all my negativities. I rejoice in the merit of migrating beings. I take hold with my mind the proper state of Buddha. I go for refuge until I’m enlightened to the Buddha, the Dharma, the supreme song assembly, and I do so to attain a knight of mind.

In order to fulfill the aims myself and others, I should develop, scream, enlightened motive. And toward all sentient beings, my invited guests, I should act with supreme enlightened conduct, may I become a Buddha to benefit all, and go for refuge as Three Jewels, confess individual in my negativities, I rejoice in the merit of my great envies, I take hold with my mind the perfect state of the Buddha, and go for refuge until I am enlightened to the Buddha, the Dharma, the Supreme Sangher assembly, and I do so to attain enlightened mind. In order to fulfill the aims of myself and others, I should develop, scream, and knight of motive. And toward all sentient beings, my invited guests, I should act as supreme and knightly conduct. May I become a Buddha to bend it all, and go for refuge to rejoice.

I all my negativities. I rejoice in the merit of my grating beings. I take hold with my mind the perfect state of a Buddha. I go for refuge until I’m enlightened to the Buddha, the Dharma, the Supreme Sangha, and I do so to attain enlightened mind. In order to fulfill the aims of myself and others, I should develop supreme enlightened motive.

And toward all sentient beings, my invited guests, I shack with supreme enlightened conduct. May I become a Buddha to benefit all? Please see what you put this above. What is meant to say? It’s right.

What is not meant say? It’s an interest. Since my kind of mother sentient beings, also, also, when my children have since suffering with saṃsāra, even one second is on the air. So therefore, I must liberate them more the oceans of their suffering and bring them to enlightenment. I must achieve as possible.

So what makes possible that only if only comes the vows. So therefore, I’m going to come to vows. Buddhas and bodhisattvas, please listen to me. I am a Gidodji from now until I reach the essence of Buddha. You generate the sacred pillars, but it cheated just all the Buddhas three times to show themselves awakening by generating it.

I should not hold all the general specific tantric vows and commitments of five families without exception. I should live with those not delivered, liberate those not liberated, breath to those unable to breathe and place all beings to stay beyond sorrow. All Buddhas and bodhisattvas, please listen to me. Mhmm. Okay.

Go ahead. The bodhisattva, When there’s no time, you can do make it. After that, you can do the short one. So when there’s no time, but the military must advise for great initiation must be the long one, but otherwise, it’s okay. However, other times we will contribute to the long one, but there is no shortage time than just So both wishing the interval.

Then you can do the last part, the delusion. And then the second one is the delusion. I keep the breath in those who are large and brings in liberation. So the last part, you do the whole thing, then the last part can be repeated three times, two times, two more times. So that’s the plan of tricks.

I should liver those not delivered, liberate those not liberated, give breath to those unable to breathe and place all beings at stake. I’m sorry. I should liver those not delivered, liberate those not liberated, give breath to those unable to breathe and place all beings and stay beyond sir. So we can stop there. Just write that to the virus.
