Summary:

ChgyamTrungpa's unique ability to express the essence of Buddhist teachings in the language and imagery of modern American culture makes his books among the most accessible works of Buddhist philosophy. Here Trungpa explores the true meaning of freedom, showing us how our preconceptions, attitudes, and even our spiritual practices can become chains that bind us to repetitive patterns of frustration and despair. This edition features a new foreword by Pema Chödrön, a close student of Trungpa and the best-selling author of When Things Fall Apart.

Guided Meditation on the Third Noble Truth

Melody by Dawn Chen Peiqi
Music Arrangement: Wang Yu Xuan

When I was young, I looked forward to going to the Monastery near my place every Friday night for mass recitation of the Amitabha Sutra. I immersed myself in the splendour of the promised land generated from Amitabha's compassion as it was vividly described in the Sutra. 

Dear Amitabha, thank you. Thank you for giving me golden memories in my childhood and for making me feel safe in this samsara world, for I know I can turn to you for refuge.

To all who hears this, I hope you can feel the great compassion of Amitabha and I hope you feel safe and loved too. :)

"Amitabha’s body is the color of gold.
The splendor of his hallmarks has no peer.
The light of his brow shines around a hundred worlds.
Wide as the seas are his eyes pure and clear.
Shining in his brilliance by transformation
are countless Bodhisattvas and infinite Buddhas.
His 48 vows will be our liberation.
In nine lotus stages we reach the farthest shore."

Homage to the Buddha of the Western Pure Land, kind and compassionate Amitabha!

At the encouragement of our friends near and far, and with the intention to celebrate not only our own tenth anniversary, but also the birthday of our Founding Chair, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, and of course the precious month of Saga Dawa, 84000 was thrilled to be able to work with composer Harry Einhorn who conceptualized and created a truly inspirational "virtual choir" giving us the basis for a beautiful 24hrs of global group recitation. 

We used a recently published text, The Dedication: Fulfilling All Aspirations (https://read.84000.co/translation/toh285.html) that we felt really encapsulated everything we needed for this tumultuous 2020. Harry composed separate tracks which were sung by over 50 participants around the world, and skillfully edited them together to create a hypnotizing choral arrangement for this sūtra that we hope will continue to be sung far into the future. 

A big, big thank you to all those who participated (list below) despite hectic schedules, and to Sophie Perks who shot and gathered footage to create a beautiful visual story around all the clips she received, and creating - in record time - what we see here today! 

To borrow an excerpt from 84000's new aspiration prayer (https://84000.co/aspiration-prayer): 

"May the endeavors of the translators and editors plant the seed of the Dharma in all directions.

May the efforts of the patrons and administrators nurture and strengthen the shoot of the Dharma at all times.

May the noble aspirations of this endeavor maintain and propagate the precious Dharma far and wide."

Badri Bhimpalasi II

This short text marks the fifth episode in 84000's Sūtras for Well-Being series, a look at the sūtras traditionally recited for resilience and well-being in times of adversity, and the stories behind them. The Aspiration Prayer from “Destroyer of the Great Trichiliocosm" contains a set of verses spoken by the Buddha as he put an end to the epidemic of Vaiśālī, extracted from one of the two main accounts of that episode. The verses call for well-being, especially by invoking the qualities of the Three Jewels and a range of realized beings and eminent gods. The text comprises two passages from the parent work, and of these the first and longest corresponds closely to a well-known Pali text, the Ratana-sutta, widely recited for protection and blessings. 

We hope this audio rendition in Tibetan, by Garchen Rinpoche, helps brings the power of the text alive, and we encourage you to visit our Sūtras for Well-Being page for more on this series includings our IGTV video episodes: 84000.co/wellbeing
