Subject: Prayer for Humanity


Sharing this timely and beautiful email from Nick Polizzi, Host of Proven: Healing Breakthroughs Backed By Science & Founder of The Sacred Science

 

 

When I read the ancient words below for the first time, they sent a course of energy through me from head to toe. I'm honored to be able to share them with you.


This prayer was written by Shantideva, a Buddhist monk of the Mahayana tradition who lived around 700 AD. He was a devoted practitioner who authored the Bodhicaryavatara or Bodhisattva Way of Life.


It is said that His Holiness the Dalai Lama considers this text to be THE source for developing altruism in your character and the "Spirit of Awakening."


It is also said that His Holiness the Dalai Lama recites this prayer every morning as part of his waking rituals. So, if you give it a try, you are in good company!



Bodhisattva Prayer for Humanity


"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, Buddhist monk, author, 700 AD

 


Now, take a deep breath and be still for a brief moment.

What did you feel when reading those words?

The transmission I got is that our highest purpose in this life is to be a source of love and light for others. We're all in this together.
