The Great Cloud of Blessings

The Prayer which Magnetizes All that Appears and Exists

 

by Mipham Rinpoche

In the palace of power, the blazing of great bliss,
Are the embodiments of the wisdom of discernment, union of bliss and emptiness:

Each on a lotus, its nature bliss free from all attachment,

And the splendour of a great, illuminating vajra sun—

Dharmakaya Amitabha and Vajradharma,

Avalokiteshvara, Lord of the World, the very manifestation of compassion,

Pema Gyalpo, all of samsara and nirvana beneath your control,

Powerful heruka Hayagriva, subjugator of all that appears and exists,

‘Secret Wisdom’ (Guhyajnana) and Vajravarahi,

Döpé Gyalpo, King of Desire, ecstasy supreme, source of the wisdom of great bliss,

Kurukulla, who captivates the mind of every living being without exception,

Masters and mistresses of supreme and ordinary mudras, dancing in bliss and emptiness,

Hosts of vajra dakas and dakinis attract and magnetize.

Remaining always within the state of great equality of appearance and emptiness,

With the dance of your vajra body, you cause the three planes of existence to tremble;

With the sound of your laughter, your unceasing enlightened speech, you draw in the three worlds;

Rays of red light burst out to fill all of samsara and nirvana

And cause the vital essence of conditioned existence and ultimate peace to vibrate and be gathered in.

With your enlightened mind of great vajra passion,

You grant the supreme of all things desired—the two kinds of siddhis;

And with your great vajra hooks and lassoes

You bind the world of appearance and existence in great bliss.

Dancers in the play of the limitless net of illusion,

Who fill space to overflowing, like a vast outpouring of sesame seeds,

Vast array of the Three Roots, hosts of magnetizing deities,

In devotion we pray to you: inspire us with your blessings,

Grant us attainments, ordinary and supreme, and so the siddhi

Of magnetizing, without obstruction, whatever we desire!

 

This was composed on the first day of the seventh month of the Earth Hare year (1879) by one named Dhih. Anyone who prays in this way will, without any doubt, accomplish all magnetizing activities exactly according to their wishes. This prayer may be written on red flags and flown in the air, or used in prayer wheels powered by heat or wind.

 

Mangalam!
