A prayer for the new year...




Om Ah Hum...

I take refuge in my root guru... 
I take refuge in the Buddha Jewel
I take refuge in the Dharma Jewel
I take refuge in the Sangha Jewel...

Om Ah Hum...

May All Enlightened ones be compassionate!
May you guide us with your wisdom and compassion,
So that we may reach the other shore, slowly but surely
And never give up the resolve to awaken our Bodhi mind
in this and many life times to come...

Until we reach our own enlightenment, 
we need your light, your support, your strengths and courage

Avalokiteshvara! Lord of Compassion...
Lead us to the world of universal loving kindness, through the resonances of your Sublime Mani mantra...

Manjushri Lord of Wisdom...
Guide us so we can awaken to our own innate wisdom, the prajna to which all enlightened ones attain...

Mama Tara, the one benevolent green mother! Help us remove our own obstacles that hinders us from our true nature!
Transform our ignorance, greed and anger to wisdom, giving and loving kindness.!! 

We will remind ourselves as we see your perfect images, to remember the qualities of Samyaksambodhi and to ever strive and be diligent in our cultivation until we reach the other shore.... 

May the next year be a great year for cultivating, for realizing and fulfilling our goals...

Om Ah Hum.... Sarva Mangalam!
