༧གོང་ས་མཆོག་ནས་སྒྲོལ་མ་ཉེར་གཅིག་གི་བསྟོད་པའི་ལུང་དང་བཤད་པ་བསྩལ་བ་བཞུགས་སོ།

Dedication “Protecting All Beings” (Toh 286) is a prayer of dedication that strongly resonates with the later Tibetan literature of mind training (blo sbyong). In addition to the classic element of dedication of merit to all beings, a substantial part of the text comprises a passage that enumerates the many faults, shortcomings, and afflictions that burden sentient beings, as well as the many possible attainments that they consequently may not have realized, and culminates in the wish that everything negative that would otherwise ripen for sentient beings may ripen instead for the reciter, so that all sentient beings would thus be liberated and purified.

This second episode in our Sūtras for Well-Being series focuses on two closely related, and recently published texts:
- The Dedication “Fulfilling All Aspirations” (https://read.84000.co/translation/toh285.html) and 
- The Dedication “Protecting All Beings.” (https://read.84000.co/translation/toh286.html)

And today, we are thrilled to share with you both Tibetan and English readings of these texts by two widely respected teachers of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition: Jigme Khyentse Rinpoche (English) and Pema Wangyal Rinpoche (Tibetan).

Open the texts in our online Reading Room (https://84000.co/translations/reading-room/), and follow along with the audio in the station above!

From the sky through the earth there are none who surpass the Buddha
In the worlds of the ten directions there are none who can compare 
Among all that I have seen in this world
There are none who surpass the Buddha

Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
From the sky through the earth there are none who surpass the Buddha

From the sky through the earth there are none who surpass the Buddha
In the worlds of the ten directions there are none who can compare 
Among all that I have seen in this world
There are none who surpass the Buddha

Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
Oṃ Muni Muni Mahāmuni Śakyamuni Svāhā 

Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
Namo Śakyamuni Buddha Guruve 
Oṃ Muni Muni Mahāmuni Śakyamuni Svāhā

Triple Gem, August 2014, Auckland, NZ

The triple gem refers to the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha: the three pillars of the buddhist path. When we take refuge in the three jewels we let go of our old values and step outside our comfort zone to begin to deconstruct the paradox of how we exist as a mass of tangled emotions, while at the same time we are the Buddha. Ultimately there is only one jewel, which we will eventually have to discard, just as we abandon the boat we have taken once we reach the other shore. Letting go of the path will be the hardest and most interesting part of our journey.
