Oh precious teacher Countless eons ago You cut all suffering at the root And realized that whatever has dependently arisen Is unceasing, unborn, un-annihilated Not permanent, not coming, not going Without distinction, without identity And free from conceptual construction Yet I, for whom those are just words I’m struck with grief on this sad day That you Shamarpa Mipham Chokyi Lodro stopped manifesting in this world Due to a small break in my bad karma Accumulated through beginning less wandering Due to a flicker of merit in this life, I met you Rinpoche and received your precious teachings The wish fulfilling instructions on Bodhicitta you put into my hand and heart, If now I fail to put them into practice When could such a chance be mine again? Therefore kind teacher, grant your kind blessing That I never fail or falter on the Bodhi path Through your continuous inspiration, may I persevere and practice And diligently train my mind And all the merit gained thereby I will dedicate wholeheartedly to the fulfillment of your wishes. So that all obstacles may be dispelled Which would hinder your swift return Om Ami Dewar Hri! By Dennis Sieg. youtube/watch?v=_dcNXmLT_8k
