Vimalakirti Sutra Odsal Ling Brasil 3

The Dedication “Fulfilling All Aspirations” (Toh 285) is a prayer of dedication, and is meant to be recited. Its structure partly reflects the liturgy of “seven branches” or “seven limbs,” a set of practices that serves as the basic structure of many Mahāyāna Buddhist prayers and rituals. In this instance, however, the text consists of two sections: the first is a detailed prayer of confession, and the second a prayer of rejoicing, requesting that the wheel of the Dharma be turned, beseeching the buddhas not to pass into nirvāṇa, and extensively dedicating the merit.

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!

Ep. 2.1 | Tibetan | "The Dedication: Fulfilling All Aspirations" recited by Pema Wangyal Rinpoche

Kuntuzangpo Molam, Bir, India - 21 June 2020
During the solar eclipse of 21 June 2020 Siddhartha's Intent hosted a global recitation of the Samantabhadra Aspiration Prayer.
We were fortunate to receive a teaching from Rinpoche, who painted a picture of the mind that, for lack of a better word, "composed" a prayer which has no composer: our naked cognisance, our naked awareness. The Kuntuzangpo prayer is just there; it's being recited and answered all the time. When a beautiful sunrise appears, if the owl doesn't see it because it's blind, too bad! If we can't see these prayers that are being answered, we're like an owl. There's not much we can do, just pray not to be an owl, which is what we do when we recite the prayer.

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

Lan Ma is a Chinese Buddhist. This is her original performance of “Praise for the Buddha."

Lyrics:

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
