Calling the Guru from Afar

A Supplication to Pierce your Heart with Devotion

Namo Guruve. This style of supplication called Calling the Guru from Afar is known by everyone. Nevertheless, the key point for invoking the guru's blessings is devotion inspired by disenchantment and renunciation, not as mere platitude but from the core of your heart, from the very marrow of your bones. Chant the song melodiously with the confidence of having resolved that your own guru is none other than the Awakened One .

Though having attained the freedoms and riches I squander my life,
Always preoccupied by the pointless affairs of this world.

Bless me that my human life may become meaningful.

Bless me that I may realize the futility of it all.

Though my faults are as great as a mountain I keep them to myself.

Bless me to abandon any interest in such a life as this.

Unable to bear the slightest physical or mental pain,
With jaded heart, I don't hesitate to take inferior rebirths.

Bless me that I gain conviction in the law of karma.

I hate my enemies and cling to my friends.
Groping in dark delusion as to what to accept and reject,

Bless me that I destroy my enemy — disturbing emotions.

On the surface, I appear to be a pure practioner;
While inwardly my mind isn't mingled with the Dharma.
Like a viper I hide my disturbing emotions within,
But faced with trouble, my faults are exposed.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.
Bless me that I may tame my own mind.

Failing to notice my own shortcomings,
Pretending to be spiritual, I am anything but.

As each day passes, death approaches ever nearer.
As each day passes, my heart becomes ever more calloused.
While following a teacher my devotion gradually fades,
And my love and pure perception towards my Dharma friends diminish.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.
Bless me to tame my savage mind.

I take refuge, engender bodhichitta, and supplicate,
But devotion and compassion are not felt deep within my heart,
These Dharma activities are mere lip service.
I only go through the motions and am left untouched.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.
Bless me that whatever I do may lead to Dharma.

All suffering arises from wanting my own happiness.
Although it is said that buddhahood is accomplished by wanting to help others,
Though I engender bodhichitta, secretly my aims are selfish.
On top of not benefiting others, I harm them.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.
Bless me that I am able to put myself in others' place.

Although my guru is the Buddha actually manifest, I think of him as simply human.
I forget his kindness in imparting the profound instructions.
If he doesn't give me what I want, I lose faith.
I obscure myself by seeing his behaviour through doubts and disdain.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.
Bless me that my devotion may not fade but grow.

Although death is sure to come, I am unable to take it to heart.
Although applying the genuine Dharma is sure to help, I am unable to practice it.
Although the law of karma is certainly true, I don't discriminate correctly.
Although mindfulness is surely needed, I don't apply it and am carried away by distraction.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.
Bless me that I maintain undistracted mindfulness.

Through previous bad karma I was born at the end of this dark age.

Bless me to be able to persevere in Dharma practice.

At first, I thought of nothing but the Dharma.
But in the end, the results of my actions only cause further samsara and the lower realms.
The harvest of liberation is ravaged by the frost of nonvirtue.
Like a savage, I destroy what is of lasting value.
Guru think of me, regard me with compassion.

Precious guru I supplicate you,
Kind Dharma lord, I cry out with longing,
Unfortunate though I am, my one hope is you.
Bless me that we mingle our minds indivisibly.

Although several devoted practitioners have encouraged me to write something like this for a long time, I neglected to do so. Recently, at the request of both Samdrub Drönma, a noble female practioner, and Deva Rakshita, this was written by Lodrö Thaye, someome who merely maintains the image of a dark age lama, at the great practice center Dzongshö Deshek Düpa. May virtuous goodness increase!

This edition was made as an offering to fulfill a wish of Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche’s by three of his disciples: Erik Pema Kunsang, Ian Saude and Michael Tweed. We offer our thanks to Nalanda Translation Committee, Ringu Tulku, and Michelle Martin for having prepared earlier versions. May Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche swiflty return.
