Due to this glorious birth, the worlds of beings benefit ed. With compassionate eyes you look on all sentient beings, to render them help, give them hope and save them from damnation. You gave to the world the Great Path of Compassion which is, in actuality, the Path to Liberation. Since then countless great ones who pursued this wonderful Path have been saved from the rounds of birth and rebirth. is great Path is before me right now and I am indeed the fortunate one. I wish to show my gratitude and pray that I too may successful y tread your Path so as to il uminate my mind of delusion. To you, Kuan Shih Yin, Great Bodhisat va, I prostrate. I shall always hold dear your name and recite your great mantra of sal- vation: `OM MANI PADME HUM'. I pray that there will be peace and harmony in my country and in all the world. I pray that evil may be overcome by good, for the happiness of those who are in every state of suffering, and for the ending of all disasters in the world. Please accept my offerings of incense, flowers, fruits, prayers and the merits of the recitations of the Great Compassionate Dharani (Ta Pei Jou) and the Heart Sutra as a mark of my love and grati- tude for your Great Compassion for having shown me the way: `HOMAGE TO YOU, O GREAT MERCIFUL ONE. HOMAGE TO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA, AMITABHA BUDDHA AND ALL THE BUDDHAS OF THE TEN DIRECTIONS. HOMAGE TO UNIVERSAL WORTHY TA-SHIH-CHI P'USA, HOMAGE TO THE GREAT AND VIRTUOUS PU HSIEN P'USA, HOMAGE TO THE HOLY AND WISE WEN-SHU P'USA, HOMAGE TO THE COMPASSIONATE TI-TSANG WANG P'USA AND ALL THE BODHISATTVAS OF THE TEN DIRECTIONS. rough these Great Victorious Ones, the Path to Nirvana is known which puts an end to all Samsaric sufferings. Out of love and gratitude and wisdom, I shall henceforth take refuge in the ree Jewels, realise and confess my faults, practise the Precepts, observe the Bodhisat va Vows and perfect the Six Paramitas. I pray for your blessings to ensure that I shall always be on your Great Path of Compassion in this and every life-time until Buddhahood has been won. May all sentient beings be blessed by your saving powers and be happy for all eternity. Kindly help their seed of Enlightenment to bud and blossom so that its beauty may fill the universe. I prostrate to you, Kuan Shih Yin P'usa. ¡ûBACK¡û |INDEX| ¡úNEXT¡ú |
