Guru Buddha Bodhisattva Bhyonama

With undivided faith, I place upon my head

The lotus feet of the Perfect Sage,

Who first set in motion the wheel of love

And triumphed completely in the two aims.

To the renowned sons of the Victorious One I bow,

To Manjushri, Avalokiteshvara, and the others

Who set out in the ship of courageous compassion

And now liberate beings from the ocean of suffering.

The spiritual friend unsurpassable

Reveals the noble path of compassion and emptiness.

He is the guide of all victorious ones.

I prostrate myself at my guru's feet.

I shall explain here the one path

On which the Victorious One and his children have traveled.

Easy to understand, it is not corrupted.

Easy to practice, it is entered with enthusiasm.

Yet it is profound, so buddhahood is attained.
