Sang Offering
Sang offering of the Peaceful Blue Water Goddess
I bow to the sole protector,
I bow to the invariable light,
I bow to the Yeshe Khandro
Peaceful Blue Water Goddess.
I a holder of samayas,
I a yogin with vows,
I overcome all defilement
Sprinkling the nectar of wisdom.
OM BENDZRA AMRITA SANG OM SVABHAVA CHANG
From DHI the goddess of wisdom,
Body as bright as the sun,
Beautiful blue and resplendent,
Whose face resembles the moon.
Holding the vase of all treasures,
Billowing smoke of sweet fragrance,
Burning away degradation (of samaya)
Incinerating damage and hurt.
Her breath a wind of pure wisdom
Scatters defilements swift,
Torpor, dullness, depression,
Overthrown with splendor and force.
Cloudbanks of showering blessing
Rain down upon us long life,
A rainfall of glorious nectar,
Cleansing all sickness and strife.
May obscurations, hindrance, conflict,
Forces oppressive and base,
Afflictions and the demonic,
Be purified in their own place.
May dignity, honor and valor,
Freedoms, glory and power,
Auspiciousness bright like the full moon,
From offerings blossom and flower.
Scatter the incense water in all directions and recite:
OM JNANA DAKINI NGU MITI CHITTA KULI BEY
(With) RAM PA RA NA WA SA (it burns)
(With) YAM PA RA NA (it is scattered)
(With) KHAM PA RA NA (it is cleansed)
SAM HA RA NA HUNG!
