All at different stages on our spiritual journey, our path to enlightenment. Therefore, we should seek to receive instructions on the particular methods, as taught by the Buddha, that are suitable to our current individual temperaments and needs, and wholeheartedly put them into practise. Benefits of meditation are now widely known and the practice of meditation has become part of the mainstream in many places around the world. For instance, it has become common place for meditation to be practised at various educational facilities such as schools and universities. Also many medical practitioners encourage their patients to meditate to help the healing process. These are just a couple of examples how the practice of meditation has become part of mainstream culture. Please take care, and stay safe and well.

Through the positive potential I create by practicing the six paramitas, may I soon attain enlightenment in order to benefit all sentient beings. (Repeat x3) THE FOUR IMMEASURABLES May all sentient beings have happiness and its causes. May they be free from suffering and its causes. May they never be parted from the happiness beyond suffering. May they abide in equanimity, free of bias, attachment to the near and aversion from the far. I shall cause this, Great Compassionate Buddha, please inspire me to be able to do so. SEVEN LIMB PRAYER Reverently I prostrate with my body, speech and mind. And present clouds of every type of offerings, actual and mentally transformed. I confess all of my negative actions accumulated since beginningless time. And rejoice in all the virtues of all holy and ordinary beings. Please remain until cyclic existence ends. And turn the wheel of Dharma for all sentient beings. I dedicate the virtues of myself and others to the Great Enlightenment. THE FOUR GREAT VOWS OF THE BODHISATTVA However innumerable all sentient beings are, I vow to save them all. However inexhaustible my delusions are, I vow to extinguish them all. However immeasurable the Dharma teachings are, I vow to master them all. However endless the Buddha’s way is, I vow to follow it completely. COMPASSION MANTRA Om Mani Padme Hum (Repeat x 3) HEART SUTRA MANTRA Tayatha Om Gate-gate para-gate para-sam gate bo-dhi-so-ha (Repeat x 3) DEDICATION Due to this merit, may I soon attain the enlightened state of the Buddha, so that I may be able to liberate all sentient beings from their suffering. May the precious Bodhicitta, not yet born, arise and grow, May that born have no decline but increase forever more. May the precious view of Shunyata, not yet born arise and grow, May that born have no decline but increase forever more. ●◆● ════ ◆◇◆ ════ ●◆● ~Dharma Master Andrew. J. Williams~
