Affiliated with the FPMT

Dear Friends,

I hope you are well. We have just received some important advice from our precious spiritual director, Lama Zopa Rinpoche.

Rinpoche has requested us to ask you—the members and supporters of the Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive—to perform a total of 150 recitations of the Sanghata Sutra in order to clear obstacles to the development of the Archive and the successful implementation of our various projects.

There is some urgency to this and any recitations that you undertake should be completed by July 14.

The sutra is quite long; it takes around 3 hours to recite once. However, there is great merit in doing this and we humbly request you to do at least one recitation, but actually, as many as you can. Not only will you benefit the Archive but you will also benefit yourself.

Before you start your recitation, please motivate:

"I am going to recite the Sanghata Sutra for the enlightenment of all sentient beings. In particular, for the successful development of the Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive so that it may spread the teachings of the Buddha far and wide for the benefit of all."

Then you do the recitation. You will find it in various languages here.

When you have completed each recitation, please dedicate the vast merit you have created as follows:

"Through the merit of having recited this sutra, may the Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive receive the funding it needs to develop for the benefit of all sentient beings; may all the FPMT Dharma centers and projects and their members and families find success in their lives and Dharma practice; and may His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Lama Osel Rinpoche and all my teachers have long and healthy lives for the benefit of all."

You can also add any personal dedications you would like.

Please send me an email let me know what you are able to undertake and when you have completed your recitation(s).

I would really, really appreciate any help you could give us with this.

Thank you so much.

Much love,

Nick Ribush
Director
