Seven-Line Prayer

"The Seven-Line Prayer carries the essence of all Guru Rinpoche's blessings. As Guru Rinpoche said: ´To this very prayer, you can give your whole mind, in devotion.` 

He also said: ´When a disciple calls upon me with yearning devotion, and with the sweet-sounding song of the Seven-Line Prayer, I shall come straightaway from Zangdopalri, like a mother who cannot resist the call of her child.` 

The Seven-Line Prayer is to be found in all of the teachings of Guru Rinpoche revealed by the hundred and eight major and one thousand minor tertons, or treasure-discoverers. So it is a prayer thatis most extraordinary, easy to practice, and replete with immense blessings.” ...

Hung. 
In the land of Uddiyana’s northwest border,
On the pistils of a Lotus flower’s stem,
You have reached the marvel of the supreme siddhi,
And became known by the name the Lotus-Born.
With surrounding circles of many dakinis,
In your footsteps I will reach accomplishment.
Please approach in order to bestow your blessings.
Guru Padma Siddhi Hung
