Balloon Mantras for Daughter's Depression

Balloon Mantras for Daughter's Depression

Date Posted:

Two students asked what they could do for their daughter, who has severe depression. They also asked about writing mantras on balloons that they could then release into the air.

My very dear Jean and Peter,
Thank you very much for your kind letter.

Regarding your questions about your daughter, you and Peter can recite the Sanghata Sutra for your daughter 21 times.

Regarding the mantras for balloons, just sending balloons up into the air and then they are blown away is not very beneficial. You must print mantras on the balloons, so that you can collect a lot of merit. By printing mantras on the balloons and writing praises for success, whatever you wish, it is the same as the function of prayer flags.

There is a monk at the Dharma center who can help you to write the mantras. It is better to have a stamp made, so that you don't need to ask other people to write them every time.

These are the mantras to put on the balloons:

With much love and prayers...
