A Prayer to Recite Every Day

Six Aspirations to Be Continually Recited

by Longchen Rabjam

In all my lives, wherever I am born,
May I obtain the seven qualities of birth in higher realms.

As soon as I am born, may I meet the Dharma,
And have the freedom to practise it correctly.

Then, may I please the noble guru,
And put the Dharma into action day and night.

May I realize the Dharma, actualize its innermost meaning,
And so cross the ocean of existence in this very life.

May I teach the sacred Dharma to beings wandering in saṃsāra,
And never tire or weary of working to help others.

Through my vast and impartial service to others,
May all beings attain buddhahood together, as one!

🙏🪷

If you are attached to this life, you are not a true spiritual practitioner.
If you are attached to samsara, you do not have renunciation.
If you are attached to your own self-interest, you have no bodhichitta.
If there is grasping, you do not have the View.

Today is Shakyamuni Buddha Blessing Day. 🙏

A small offering in remembrance of our great Teacher.

More than 2,500 years have passed, yet the light of the Buddha continues to illuminate countless hearts.

May all beings be happy and free🩷

It is impossible to retain past mind, Impossible to hold on to present mind, And impossible to grasp future mind.

He killed 999 people.

Yet through sincere repentance and diligent practice, Angulimala eventually attained liberation.

This timeless Buddhist story reminds us that no matter how dark the past may be, awakening is always possible.

🙏 Based on Khenpo Sodargye’s commentary on the Udāna.

The Dharma is not measured by eloquent words, but by genuine realization in one's own heart. Such realization comes only through practice.
