Supplication of the Lama
ཆོས་བརྒྱད་མདུད་པ་རོ་སྙོམས་ངང་དུ་ཞིག །
Who freed the ties of the eight wordly concerns, in the state of equal taste,
བློས་བྱས་རི་མོ་ཀ་དག་དབྱིངས་སུ་ཡལ། །
Dissolving the mentally created images into the space of
primordial purity,
རྫོགས་པ་ཆེན་པོའི་གནས་ལུགས་མངོན་སུམ་གཟིགས། །
Beholding directly the natural state of Dzogchen,
ལུང་རྟོགས་བསྟན་པའི་ཉི་མར་གསོལ་བ་འདེབས།། །།
Lungtok Tenpay Nyima, to you I pray!
