new kadampa tradition - the actual prayers lyrics

to attain the supreme peace of mind, enlightenment
i make excellent offerings to the holy beings
the enlightened beings of the ten directions
and the assembly of bodhisattvas
however many flowers and fruits there are
and all the different types of medicine
all the jewels there arе in the world
and all the pure, rеfreshing waters

mountains of jewels, forest groves
and quiet and joyful places
heavenly trees adorned with flowers
and trees whose branches hang with delicious fruits
scents that come from the celestial realms
incense, wish+granting trees and jewelled trees
harvests that need no cultivation
and all ornaments that are suitable to be offered
lakes and pools adorned with lotuses
and the beautiful call of wild geese
everything that is unowned
throughout all worlds as extensive as sp+ce
holding these in my mind, i offer them well
to the supreme beings, the buddhas and bodhisattvas
o compassionate ones, holy objects of offering
think of me kindly and accept what i offer

with the intention to attain
the ultimate, supreme goal
that surpasses even the wish+granting jewel
may i constantly cherish all living beings
whenever i associate with others
may i view myself as the lowest of all
and with a pure intention
may i cherish others as supreme

examining my mental continuum throughout all my actions
as soon as a delusion of self+cherishing develops
whereby i or others would act inappropriately
may i firmly face it and avert it
whenever i see unfortunate beings
oppressed by evil and violent suffering
may i cherish them as if i had found
a rare and precious treasure
even if someone i have helped
and of whom i had great hopes
nevertheless harms me intentionally
may i see him or her as my holy spiritual guide
when others out of jealousy or anger
harm me or insult me
may i take defeat upon myself
and offer them the victory

in short, may i directly and indirectly
offer help and happiness to all my mothers
and secretly take upon myself
all their harm and suffering
furthermore, through all the above
practices together with a mind
undefiled by stains of conceptions
of the eight extremes
and that sees all phenomena as illusory
may i and all living beings
be released from the bondage of mistaken
appearance and conception
