May peace spread across the globe
As simple as to eyes to see and hands to hold
May light illuminate the dark
Revealing truth and love within our hearts
May the sick be healed and blind can see
There is no pain; for you nor me
May the lost be found; in this crazy world
Rise up like the lotus
Help to cultivate the good.
Good morning earth
And what will you bring me today
For you have given me too much
Spoiled rotten but I’m thankful
Welcoming the sunrise
With all of my soul
Lucky to be alive another day
May I be a guard for those who need protection
A guide for those on the path
A boat, a raft, a bridge for those who wish to cross the flood
May I be a lamp in the darkness
A resting place for the weary
A healing medicine for all who are sick
A vase of plenty, a tree of miracles
And for the boundless multitudes of living beings
May I bring sustenance and awakening
Enduring like the earth and sky
Until all beings are freed from sorrow
And all are awakened.
– Shantideva, Indian Buddhist sage 700 A.D. Prayer performed each morning by His Holiness the Dalai Lama
