英文书 E275 Pith Teaching on the Path of Liberation 解脫道口訣

Preface:

Supplication for the

Blessing of Living Buddha

Lian-sheng

Om, Ah, Hum.

With reverence I offer my purified body, speech and mind to Mahavairocana.

The Holy Buddha Locana is the Dharma body, Padmakumara is the bliss body.

Living Buddha Lian-sheng is the emanation body. These three bodies being the same inessence as the Buddha’s grace.

Homage to his True Buddha lineage and to his transcendent power which encompasses the whole universe.

Radiating light throughout the three times, he can manifest himself instantaneously.

Disciples of the Buddha should constantly cry out for his pure light, which magnifies virtue and wisdom.

In the past, his Buddhahood was prophesied by Shakyamuni Buddha. Amitabha Buddhaen trusted him with the mission of salvation.

Maitreya Bodhisattva bestowed on him the red crown. Guru Padmasambhava taught him the tantra.

We pray you never abandon your past vows to liberate us all.

As you enfold us in protection and care, empower us to quickly attain realization.

Namo Mahavairocana Buddha.

Namo Buddha Locana.

Namo Padmakumara.

Namo Living Buddha Lian-sheng.

Namo the True Buddha Assembly, all buddhas, bodhisattvas, and mahasattvas everywhere throughout the three times.
