萬善根本從師出， 能生利樂如良田； 依止違法善根斷， 如理事師求加持。
一切時處普攝護， 諸善知識真佛身； 但觀功德毋尋過， 並念大恩求加持。
殷重敬信為意樂， 身命財物如教修； 殊勝供養作加行， 唯令師喜求加持。

死仇決定終須到， 容或今日便降臨； 死時世事均當捨， 速修妙法求加持。

業惑增上成流轉， 結生相續繫縛堅； 離此當得無漏樂， 勤希解脫求加持。
為脫有苦依三學， 出家身德佛所稱； 生生願持解脫戒， 如護眼珠求加持。
但求解脫雖可得， 惜於自利且未圓！ 願修能滿二利行， 入大乘道求加持。
All virtuous roots arise from the teacher, Like a fertile field that yields joy and benefit. If we rely improperly, those roots are cut. Please grant your blessings to follow the wise teacher properly.
At all times and in all places, our guides, The true spiritual teachers, are like the Buddha. See only their good qualities, not their faults, And remember their great kindness—please grant your blessings.
With deep respect and faith as our mindset, Offer life, wealth, and practice as instructed. Make supreme offerings as our earnest effort, And seek only to please the teacher—please grant your blessings.
Free from the eight adversities and endowed with the ten fortunes, We can practice all paths: Mahayana, Vajrayana, Sutra, and Tantra. But fearing this body will be hard to get again, I aspire wholeheartedly—please grant your blessings.
The enemy of death is certain to arrive, Perhaps even today. At death, all worldly affairs must be left behind. Grant your blessings that I may swiftly practice the Dharma.
Countless bad deeds from beginningless time Will cause me to fall into lower realms without freedom. If I fall, I must endure cold, heat, and more. Reflecting on this unbearable suffering, please grant your blessings.
You who can dispel all fears and give refuge, Real, not false, and with no other refuge— I sincerely take refuge in the Three Jewels and keep their precepts, Both general and specific—please grant your blessings.
From wholesome and unwholesome deeds, pleasure and pain arise: We must accept their due, diligently stop bad and do good. Especially for the sins gathered since beginningless time, I apply the four opponent powers—please grant your blessings.
By diligently cultivating virtuous deeds in this life, I may gain a precious human or heavenly body. But these still cannot escape inherent suffering. Grant your blessings that I may wish to leave samsara.
Drifting in the ocean of existence without freedom, This cruel drama is caused by karma and afflictions. Karma in turn arises from disturbing emotions. Grant your blessings that I vow to destroy this enemy of delusion.
Under the influence of karma and defilements, we transmigrate, Bound tightly by a chain of continuous rebirth. Freedom from this brings the bliss beyond contamination. Grant your blessings that I strive earnestly for liberation.
To be free from the sufferings of existence, rely on the three trainings. The Buddha praised the virtue of a monastic life. Life after life, may I uphold the vows of liberation, Protecting them like my own eyes—please grant your blessings.
Though seeking mere personal liberation is achievable, It’s a pity that self-benefit remains incomplete! Grant your blessings that I may practice the path that fulfills both aims, Entering the Great Vehicle. Please grant your blessings.

Even in this present life, worldly conflicts appear, Yet each individual's fate is uncertain. Do not create false distinctions of love and hate; Diligently cultivate equanimity, and pray for blessings to do so.
The cycle of birth and death has no beginning; Entry into the womb and rebirth also have no origin. Thus know that all sentient beings have been our mothers; Aspire to this insight, and pray for blessings to attain it.
In this life, the mother who loves me is the most dear, Yet all mothers have nurtured me with equal care. Thinking of this deep kindness, which I have not yet repaid, Remember the mother's kindness, and pray for blessings to do so.
If I were to abandon one who has shown me such kindness, Who would be more lowly than myself? Therefore, to repay this debt, I must relieve their suffering, And grant them supreme bliss; pray for blessings to achieve this.
These kind mothers lack happiness. I offer my body, wealth, and virtuous roots to them. May all sentient beings attain joy, And be fully endowed with all that is good; pray for blessings to realize this.
All mother sentient beings are tormented by suffering. May they be completely free from the causes and results of pain. Even if the remaining misfortunes fall upon me, I will diligently cultivate compassion; pray for blessings to do so.
Toward all beings throughout the world, I should protect them from affliction and sever the root of suffering. I must resolve to do this decisively, And pray for the swift ability to do so; pray for blessings to achieve this.
Effortlessly, I must accomplish both my own good and that of others. Who else but the World-Honored One can do this? For the sake of benefiting all beings, May I quickly attain Buddhahood; pray for blessings to accomplish this.
