Heartfelt Dharma Aspiration Prayer
Dzogchen Khenpo Choga Rinpoche has requested that all local Sanghas and individual students practice the Heartfelt Dharma Aspiration Prayer for the Dzogchen Lineage Internship as much as possible between now and the beginning of the next Internship, but also during the Internship. There are three important times Rinpoche has requested we practice this prayer:
- Daily, on an individual basis, of which we recommend the Main Prayer, and the Supplemental section when time and positive conditions permit.
- Weekly, with your Sangha, whenever you get together for practice.
- Lastly, on the full moon. Try to plan accordingly within your Sangha and get together to practice for all beings!
Khen Rinpoche has stressed that for the benefit of all
beings it is imperative we generate the positive energy
necessary to organize and plan a successful Dzogchen
Lineage Internship. Without such success, it will be
much more difficult to train teachers for this world and
preserve the Buddha’s teachings. We therefore encourage
you to practice this prayer, the "Preliminary Practice"
in The Buddha Path, and Visualization of Buddha
Shakyamuni as much as possible for the benefit of all
beings! Always know that your positive practice is the
root of all beneficial activities and the root of world
peace!
We rejoice in your good practice!
Namo Buddhaya!
