Dedication Prayer by Lord Jigten Sumgon

Glorious, holy, venerable, kind root and lineage Lamas,
Divine assembly of Yidams and assemblies of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas,
Yogins, Yoginis and Dakinis dwelling in the ten directions,
Please hear my prayer.

By the power of this vast root of virtue,
May I benefit all beings through my body, speech, and mind.
May the afflictions of desire, hatred, ignorance, arrogance, and jealousy not arise in my mind.
May thoughts of fame, reputation. wealth, honor, and concern for this life not arise for even a moment.


May my mind-stream be moistened by loving-kindness, compassion, and bodhicitta, and through that,
May I become a spiritual master with good qualities equal to the infinity of space.
May I gain the supreme attainment of Mahamudra in this very life.

May the torment of suffering not arise even at the time of my death.
May I not die with negative thoughts.
May I not die confused by wrong view.
May I not experience an untimely death.
May I die joyfully and happily in the great luminosity of the Mind-as-such and the pervading clarity of Dharmata.
May I, in any case, gain the supreme attainment of Mahamudra at the time of death or in the bardo.
