- a practice profound of meaning and rich with blessing
for the modern regular practitioner with limited time
"The Serkhang Chojé," a most blessed
statue of Kyobpa Rinpoché enshrined in the Golden Temple at
Drikung Thil Monastery.
Refuge and bodhicitta:
Vajradhara Lama, embodiment of the Three Jewels,
I take refuge in you, and will until I attain enlightenment;
Sentient beings, victims of confused-projection suffering,
I generate the mindset for enlightenment in order to
establish you all in the non-abiding state. recite three times
Visualization:
Lord Vajradhara, Jigten Sumgön, you
Sit on a seat of the ten strengths, four fearlessnesses, and
eighteen unmixed dharmas; your
Major and minor marks of love, compassion, and bodhicitta
radiate rays of light; and your
Non-conceptual enlightened activities reach all migrators equally.
Mantra recitation:
OM AH RATNA SHRI SARVA SIDDHI HUNG accumulate many recitations
Blessing supplication:
You are the buddhas Nagakulapradipa and Dipankara of the past,
Maitreya of the future, and Shakyamuni of the present; the
Reincarnation of Nagarjuna; the peerless Ratna Shri –
Lord Jigten Sumgön, I supplicate you. recite three or more times
Empowerment and dissolution:
Light rays emanate from the lama’s body, speech, and mind and
Dissolve into my four places, thereby purifying the four obscurations,
Bestowing the four empowerments, and planting the seeds of the four kayas; the
Lama then dissolves into myself; my mind is now natural luminosity-emptiness.
rest in the mind-as-it-is
Dedication:
Through both the innate virtue and the virtue accumulated in the
three times by all in samsara and nirvana,
May I and all sentient beings filling space, none left out,
Realize the co-emergent ultimate reality and
Attain the final state of non-abidance in existence or peace.
