A Prayer Composed by His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet, Honouring and Invoking the Great Compassion of the Three Jewels: The Buddha, The Teachings, and the Spiritual Community.

Buddhas of the past, present and future,
Bodhisattvas and disciples;
Having remarkable qualities
immeasurably vast as the ocean;
And who regard all sentient beings
as your only child;
Please consider the truth
of my anguished pleas.

Buddha's teachings dispel the pain
of worldly existence and self-centered peace;
May they flourish,
spreading prosperity and happiness
throughout this spacious world;
O holders of the Dharma:
scholars and realized practitioners;
May your ten-fold virtuous practice prevail.
Completely suppressed by seemingly endless
and terribly negative karmic acts;

Humble sentient beings
are immersed in misery,
tormented by sufferings without cease;
May all their fears
from unbearable war,
famine and disease be pacified;
To attain an ocean
of happiness and well-being.
Barbarian hordes
on the side of darkness,
by various means;
Mercilessly destroy pious people,
particularly in the Land of Snow;
Kindly let the power
of compassion arise;
To quickly stem
the flow of blood and tears.
Through wild madness,
brought on by the evils of delusion;

These objects of compassion do disservice
to themselves and to others;
May the irresponsible
attain the eye of wisdom
to discern good from bad;
And be established
in a state of love and friendship.

May this heart-felt wish
of total freedom for all Tibet;
Which has been awaited for such a long time;
be spontaneously fulfilled;
Please grant soon
the great fortune to enjoy;
The celebration of spiritual and temporal rule.
For the sake of the teachings and practitioners,
the nation and its people;
Many have undergone myriad hardships;
Completely sacrificing their most cherished lives,
bodies and wealth;

O Protector Chenrezig,
compassionately care for them.
Thus the great Patron
of Boundless Love,
before Buddhas and Bodhisattvas;
Embraced the people
of the Land of Snow;
May good results now quickly dawn;
Through the prayerful vows you have made.
By the power of the profound reality of emptiness
and its relative forms;

Together with the force of great compassion
in the Three Jewels and the Words of Truth;
And through the infallible law of actions
and their effects;
May this truthful prayer
be unhindered and quickly fulfilled.

The Prayer: WORDS OF TRUTH was composed by His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet on 29 September 1960 at his temporary headquarters in the Swarg Ashram, located in Dharamsala, India. This prayer for the restoration of peace, the Buddhist teachings, the culture and self-determination of the Tibetan people in their homeland was written after repeated requests by Tibetan government officials along with unanimous consensus of the monastic and lay communities. Particular acknowledgement was given to the requests of Barzhi Phuntsog Wangyal; LobsangTendzin-treasurer ofLhatzun Labrang and his wife, Tashi Dolma; and Lobsang Dorje-treasurer ofShelkhar Monastery.

This translation was made by Ramjampa Dupchok Gyaltsen and Peter Gold, under the editorial guidance of Lotsawa Tenzin Dorje and with certain clarifications by the Yen. Geshe Lobsang Gyatso, Principal of the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics, in Dharamsala, India, during April 1992.
