Recite the hundred syllable mantra.

Surrounded by a vast gathering of vidyadharas of the three transmissions,

Embodying every source of refuge.

Put your energy into reciting the Seven Line Prayer and the Vajra Guru mantra. At the end, recite:

NÉ  SUM  DRU  SUM  ÖZER  GYI

Rays of light stream from the three syllables at the lama’s three centres,

CHIN  LAP  WANG  DANG  NGÖ  DRUP  TOP

And I receive his blessings, empowerments and siddhis.

The lama melts into light and dissolves into me.

YER  MÉ  MA  CHÖ  LHUKPAR  SHYAK

Inseparable from him, I rest in a natural state of ease.

Dedicate the merit.
