'May I be protector for those without one, a guide for all travellers on the way;
may I be a bridge, a boat, a ship for all who wish to cross the water.
May I be an island for those who seek one, and a lamp for those desiring light;
may I be a bed for all who wish to rest and a slave for all who want a slave.
May I be a wishing jewel, a magic vase, powerful mantras and great medicine.
May I become a wish-fulfilling tree and a cow of plenty for the world.
Just like space and the great elements such as earth, may I always support the life of all the boundless creatures.
And until they pass away from pain, may I also be the source of life for all the realms of varied beings that reach until the end of space.'
