Nous venons de recevoir de notre imprimeur les exemplaires d’Au-delà des apparences, le commentaire contemporain du Soutra du cœur par Guéshé Tènzin Zopa.

La Vén. Lobsang Détchèn, directrice des Éditions Mahayana, vous présente ici le livre tout juste arrivé ! 😊

Les premiers exemplaires sont en route vers celles et ceux qui l’avaient déjà commandé.

🌳 Pour ce titre, nous avons travaillé avec La Clairière des Livres, engagé dans une démarche de reforestation : pour chaque titre imprimé, un arbre est planté dans leur forêt, en Centre-Bretagne.

📅 Et dès ce dimanche 20 septembre, nous vous donnons rendez-vous pour notre première rencontre autour du Soutra du cœur avec Charok Lama.

Cinq rencontres en ligne, les dimanches matin, pour explorer ce texte essentiel de la tradition bouddhiste, en français.

Here are the Words of Truth Pacifying the Dangers of Weapons
OM MANI PADME HUM

Here are the Words of Truth Pacifying the Dangers of Weapons
OM MANI PADME HUM

Great Loving Victorious One (Maitreya Buddha), Transcendental Sublime Compassionate Eye Looking One,
Wrathful Victorious Hayagriva, Fully Accomplished Totally Pure (Jetsun) Tara and so forth,
Merely hearing your holy names eliminates all dangers,
Objects of refuge in the nature of compassion, please pay attention!

When the sentient beings of the time of quarrelling and five degenerations
By the explosion of the great ocean of evil karma and jealousy
Are tormented by the intensive suffering of fighting and quarrelling
Please dry this up by the power of transcendental wisdom and compassion.

By letting great rainfalls of the nectar of loving kindness fall
On the migratory beings who are enflaming the conflagration of hatred-fire
Please grant blessings with the recognition of each other like father-mother
Then increase happiness and auspiciousness.

May the multitudes of the vicious evil spirits
Who enter the mental continuum and
Change it instantly to the mind of asura
From now on never run in this area (country/world).

I am requesting for even all the sentient beings who have died in the war
To abandon from that time onward all the evil karma, cause and effect,
Then having entered and been born in the Blissful Field (Amitabha's Pure Land)
To lead all others to that Pure Land.

Please bless all those who are born and die (samsaric beings)
To have a long life, no sicknesses, to pacify all quarrelling and fighting,
Enjoy the ten virtues, have rainfall at the right times, always have good harvests
And for all the habitat and inhabitants to be auspicious and increase.

By the ultimate reality which is pure by nature,
By phenomena having ultimate reality, cause and result are unbetrayable,
And by the compassion of the Guru, Mind-seal Deity and Rare Sublime Ones,
May these pure extensive prayers be completed.
