About this talk. In this 36-minute talk from Taiwan, Lama Zopa Rinpoche teaches on bodhicitta — the compassionate intention to free all sentient beings from suffering and bring them happiness. He focuses on generating this motivation in the hearts of everyone in the world, as the foundation for both personal practice and the completion of FPMT projects, particularly the Maitreya project. Rinpoche guides practitioners through aspirations and dedications for world peace: stopping war, torture, poverty, famine, disease, and natural disasters. He emphasizes the merit and purification that arise from this session of practice, noting that even those who see, touch, or remember the teacher receive purification and benefit. The teaching weaves together immediate practical compassion with far-reaching aspirations for universal healing and enlightenment.

So, in the prayer of bodhicitta, to free all sentient beings from suffering and cause to bring others to happiness, the needs for the FPMT projects and the rest of the project and organization, all those that I mentioned, to receive that living and to be much better. That Then, to generate bodhicitta in, everyone’s heart, and everyone in this world, their heart, and then to provide peace and happiness, and and nobody experiences the war,, this is torture, poverty, and this is the danger of fire, water, earthquake, and all these things that are happening in order to be stopped. So I’m going to recite. So it’s a Maitreya world peace. I’m going to recite the sadhana, the mantra, the prayer.
Okay? So purify everything, then receive all the qualities. I am sorry. I’m not sure what comes out. Anything might come up.
So that we have all this incredible opportunity again today, this time, in this life, and in this time, the opportunity to these various practices creates unbelievable so much merit and purification. And all the merits we collect in this session, so many times the merits of and so much purification is. The main sentient beings who see me, touch me, remember, think about the person who dreams of me, who wants some pictures, the harm or help, whatever being. Just by that, they get purified and may the people get the boundless at that time. And they immediately find the and find the path, the Dharma, and then all that we should be sent immediately.
And the the path to the enlightenment, and then complete path to enlightenment. These are the past, which was made from pure gold. Then I became only like only golden light, like whole body, becoming you, myself and then those who have a connection with me. Which of the universe, of all the country, of this house, will be. Just about that.
And then may I say may all the sicknesses be healed sicknesses anyone who has sickness in this world, healed and humans, spirits, their harms, quarrels, fight, wars, famine, disease, torture, problems, dangers of fire, water, earth, all this made it stop immediately. Then may I have the ability, they never have the able to fulfill the wishes of all sentient beings instantly. So that so in the process of all that, then this can be as well as this can be done. All the needs to be received for the Maitreya project. Fine.
All the rest of the projects will be achieved, and then we must all the projects for what’s in the need to bring to completion as possible. Mhmm. To the three times, all that which exists but which is totally empty from the side. That I always exist but it was totally empty from its own side.. I
