“We have to respect our elders. We have to listen to our elders. We have to do good deeds. This is what it says in the Qur’an” - Maliha

He did not say:
You will not be assailed;
You will not be belabored;
You will not be disquieted.
But he did say:
You will not be overcome.

Through even the small virtue
I have accumulated
By offering this prayer
Of the bodhisattva practice,
May all the positive aspirations of beings
Be fulfilled in an instant.

Through creating limitless positive potential
By dedicating this prayer
Of Samantabhadra’s deeds,
May all beings drowning
In this torrent of suffering,
Enter the presence of Amitabha.

Through this king of aspirations,
Which is the greatest of the sublime,
Helping infinite wanderers in samsara,
Through the accomplishment
Of this scripture dazzling
With Samantabhadra’s practice,
May suﬀering realms
Be utterly emptied of all beings.

Original Colophon from the FPMT Retreat Prayer Book:

Thus, The Extraordinary Aspiration of the Practice of Samantabhadra, also known as The King of Prayers, from the Gandavyuha chapter of the Avatamsaka Sutra (translated by Jinamitra, Surendrabodhi, and Yeshe-de, circa 900 C.E.), is complete. The Tibetan was compared with the Sanskrit and revised by Lotsawa Vairochana.

Translator’s Colophon:

Translated by Jesse Fenton in Seattle, Washington in 2002 by request of her teacher, Ven. Thubten Chodrön, relying on the commentary Ornament Clarifying the Exalted Intention of Samantabhadra by Jangkya Rolpäi Dorje, and on clarification of many diﬃcult points by the very kind Khensur Rinpoche Konchog Tsering of Ganden Monastery.

Born from an extremely beautiful,
Superlative lotus
In this joyful land,
The Buddha’s magnificent mandala,
May I receive a prediction of my awakening
Directly from the Buddha Amitabha.

Having received a prediction there,
May I create vast benefit
For beings throughout the ten directions,
With a billion emanations
By the power of wisdom.

When the moment of my death arrives,
By eliminating all obscurations
And directly perceiving Amitabha,
May I go immediately to Sukhavati,
Pure Land of Great Joy.

Having gone to Sukhavati,
May I actualize the meaning
Of these aspirations,
Fulfilling them all without exception,
For the benefit of beings
For as long as this world endures.

Have no doubt that complete awakening
Is the fully ripened result –
Comprehended only by a buddha –
Of holding in mind
By teaching, reading, or reciting
This aspiration of the bodhisattva practice.

In order to train just like
The hero Manjushri
Who knows reality as it is
And just like Samantabhadra as well,
I completely dedicate all this goodness,
Just as they did.

With that dedication which is praised
As greatest
By all the buddhas gone to freedom
In the three times,
I, too, dedicate all my roots of goodness
For the attainments of the bodhisattva practice.

Those who give voice
To this extraordinary aspiration
Will quickly & completely purify
The five boundless harmful actions
Created under the power of ignorance.

Blessed with supreme knowledge,
Excellent body, family,
Attributes & appearance,
They will be invincible to vast interfering forces
And misleading teachers,
And all the three worlds will make oﬀerings.

Going quickly to the noble bodhi tree,
And sitting there to benefit sentient beings,
Subduing all interfering forces,
They will fully awaken
And turn the great wheel of Dharma.

Those who make this heartfelt aspiration
For the bodhisattva way
Will be free of all lower rebirths,
Free of harmful companions,
And will quickly see Amitabha, Infinite Light.

And even in this very human life,
They will be nourished by happiness
And have all conducive circumstances.

Without waiting long,
They will become like Samantabhadra himself.

One of our caregivers, Derek, has been taking one of our friends (and their sweet pooch) to explore local parks, including TeWinkle Park in Costa Mesa. 🐕♥️🙏💚🌈💚🙏♥️🐕🌸🌸💓💓💓

As we all know, getting outside for sunshine, fresh air, Vitamin D & a change of scenery with a friendly companion (or two) can do wonders for the body & mind… Plus check out the turtles! 🌸🌸💓💓💓🙏💚🐢💜🐢💜🐢💚🙏🌸🌸💓💓💓

A BIG thank you to ALL of our beloved caregivers who help make the world a bit brighter & less lonely; to Derek for this recent & lovely reminder of how meaningful these simple outings can be (and for these sweet pics!); & to Christina for passing on the photos 🌸🌸💓💓💓💛 🌻💓🌻💛🌻💓🌻💛🌸🌸💓💓💓

May all beings receive the love & care they need… And may all beings discover the hidden gems of hearts, parks, and goofy barks! (Sorry, couldn’t help myself!) 🌸🌸🌸💓💓💓🌎☮️🌈 🌎☮️🌈 🌎☮️🌈 🌎☮️🌈 🌎☮️🌈 🌎☮️🌈 🌎☮️🌈🌸🌸🌸💓💓💓

One may oﬀer to the buddhas all wealth & adornments of infinite worlds in ten directions,
And one may oﬀer during eons numberless
As atoms of the world
Even the greatest happiness of gods & humans;

But whoever hears this extraordinary aspiration
And, longing for highest awakening —
Gives rise to faith just once —
Creates far more precious positive potential.
