[Three sounds of the bell.]

With hearts established in mindfulness, we are truly present. For sitting and walking meditation and for reciting the sutras, may this practice with this fourfold sangha Be supported by the three jewels and holy beings. Well protected from the eight misfortunes and the three powers of suffering. May guarantee children and all beings within the three realms be filled with the most divine grace.

And may it be found that in the world there is no place at war May the winds be favorable, the rain seasonable, and the people's hearts at peace. May the practice of the noble community, diligent and steady, ascend the ten Bodhisattva stages with ease and energy. May the Sangha body live peacefully, fresh and full of joy, a refuge for all, offering happiness and insight. Know yourself of the awakened mind, shine out like the full moon. The body of the awakened one is clear and clear as crystal.

In the world the awakened one reveals bitterness and suffering. In every place the awakened mind reveals love and compassion. Namo Shakyamunaye Buddhaya Namo Shakyamunaye Buddhaya. With hearts established in mindfulness We are truly present for sitting and walking meditation, and for reciting the sutras. May his practice center with his forefathers somehow Be supported by the three jewels and holy beings. Well protected from the eight misfortunes and the three paths of suffering.
