I vow to attain Buddhahood for the benefit of all sentient beings! I vow to attain Buddhahood for the benefit of all sentient beings! I vow to attain Buddhahood for the benefit of all sentient beings! Dear Guru and the Three Jewels, please bless me! Please help me eliminate self-attachment and all selfish habits, and be free from all samsaric thoughts forever.
May I never be separated from good spiritual teachers and never be separated from the path to enlightenment life after life. May I connect with all sentient beings in the Buddha, the Dharma, the Sangha, liberation, and supreme enlightenment till the end of time. To benefit countless sentient beings, may I swiftly realize the wisdom of impermanence and non-self. Please bless me to benefit sentient beings selflessly, just like the Guru and the Buddha! To benefit sentient beings, I vow to generate supreme Bodhicitta. Dear Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the ten directions, please bless me with compassion! Please help me generate Bodhicitta, without fear or regression. May Bodhicitta be my guide, wisdom be the essence of my mind, and the Pure Land be my destination. May everything I do today become the cause for the liberation of sentient beings. May all sentient beings I see today and all those who see me plant the seeds for liberation. Today, I shall live my life in a meaningful way. Today, I shall strive to engage in virtuous actions and learn, contemplate, and practice the Buddha’s teachings. **The Dharani of the Essence of Dependent Arising** (recite three times): **OM YE DHARMA HETU-PRABHAVA HETUM TESHAM TATHAGATO HYAVADAT TESHAM CHA YO NIRODHA EVAM VADI MAHASHRAMANAH SVAHA**
