HH the 17th Karmapa -- AN ASPIRATION FOR THE WORLD

HH the 17th Karmapa -- AN ASPIRATION FOR THE WORLD

World, we live and die on your lap.

On you we play out all our woes and joys.

You are our home old ancient one.

Forever we cherish you; we could not bear your loss.

We wish to transform you into the pure realm of our dream.

Into a field where all creatures live without prejudice all equal.

We wish to transform you into a loving warm gentle goddess.

Our wish to embrace you is unchangeably stead fast.

To that end be the ground which sustains us all.

Do not show us the dark side of your character --
and we too will transform you --

All your corners into fertile field of peace and happiness.

May the harvest of joyfulness and freedom's million sweet scents fulfill our limitless infinite wishes --

So we pray.

Composed by His Holiness Ogyen Drodul Trinley Dorje, The Seventeenth Gyalwang Karmapa, Translated by David Karma Choephel

OK - from broadway to monk, great achieveme. I can't imagine him as om broadway ^_^

[ibitoshi]

That's because Karma Chophel was an broadway musician before becoming a monk.

The Karmapa should sing this his way. This monk should not sing.

I was taking part on that event and first this tune was quite difficult to learn. But this year we all did much better :) This is so beautiful tune, it takes some time to get to know it. And next you just love it. Karmapa chenno.
