In Tibet, the prayer is recited three times before doing any meditation, reciting any other prayers, or performing any ceremony. Guru Rinpoche has a rainbow body and will come to your aid if you recite the Seven-Line Prayer with faiths and devotion.

In one of the treasure teaching revelations of Guru Chowang, one of the five Terton Kings, it is said that when supplicating Guru Rinpoche with the Seven Line Prayer:

Pray in this way over and over again.

Create a feeling of yearning and longing

So intense that tears spring from your eyes.

If the rapture of devotion overwhelms you,

Breathe out strongly, and then leave everything as it is.

Clear and awake, focused and undistracted, look within.

Where did this prayer come from? In India in the past, some non-Buddhist teachers, who despised the Buddha Dharma, once challenged the Buddhist scholars at Nalanda University to a scholarly debate. The Buddhist scholars, however, were unable to defeat these non-Buddhist teachers, and so in desperation, they supplicated the Vajra dakas and dakinis. That night, the Dakini Supreme Peace (Zhiwa Chog) appeared in their dreams and said. 

You will not be able to defeat these non-Buddhists. If you do not invite my elder brother Dorje Totreng Tsal (Vajra Skull-Garland Power, Guru Rinpoche), who lives at the Dark Cemetery—the Buddhadharma will be destroyed.”

She then instructed them to arrange an elaborate feast offering on the roof of the monastery and taught them the Seven Line Prayer. When the scholars recited it, Guru Rinpoche immediately appeared miraculously from the sky. He then presided over the Buddhist scholars’ debate and so they were able to defeat the non-Buddhists. Later on in the 8th century, when Guru Rinpoche came to Tibet, he taught the prayer to his close disciples and also concealed it in many treasure teachings for the benefit of future disciples.

The Seven Line Prayer refers to the outer guru, who is symbolized or represented by the manifestation of Guru Rinpoche in a physical form. However, when we talk about the ‘guru’, there are actually different levels of meaning, such as outer, inner, and secret. In terms of the inner and the secret meaning of the seven-line prayer, emptiness and co-emergent wisdom respectively are manifested.

The Seven-Line prayer to Guru Rinpoche, Padmasambhava, is one of the most ubiquitous and important prayers, performed across lineages and in particular the Nyingma tradition who commence nearly every practice with it.  What follows is a brief introduction and Reader’s Guide to this short but extremely profound verse. If you really recite this prayer from your heart, then there's no way that you can avoid bringing Guru Rinpoche forth and invoking him. 

So it's extremely powerful. And you should practice it at all times continually. If you really focus on the Seven-Line Prayer, then it is certain that the blessings will come. The blessings of Guru Rinpoche will spring out and be born in your mind stream.

In the Nyingma tradition, this is the King of Prayers. In Tibet. Many practitioners recite its hundreds of thousands of times, reciting it (mentally or aloud) during all their waking hours, making this prayer as their main prayer, life, breathing, and contemplation. 

”If one can concentrate on practicing the prayer in this life, when you die you will completely dissolve into the mind of Padmasambhava. Guru Rinpoche is the ultimate nature of the embodiment of all Bodhisattvas and Buddhas"

”When a disciple calls upon me with yearning devotion, and with the melodious song of this Buddhist prayer, I shall come straightaway from Zangdokpalri (the pure land where Guru Rinpoche now resides), like a mother who cannot resist the call of her child. ” – Guru Rinpoche, the second living Buddha in our age.

If you seek for wealth, longevity or wish to clear your obstacles, just by praying, all wishes can be fulfilled. Some people think that to practice Guru Rinpoche for wealth is of no use, but this is not correct. Just by relying upon Guru Rinpoche, all wishes can be achieved. 

If one cannot practice other methods, just practicing the seven-lines prayer is the same as a panacea that can cure all kinds of sicknesses. But if one is merely mouthing the prayers, it is not enough, one should have great faith and devotion to Guru Rinpoche and supplicate one-pointedness, then you are sure to receive Guru Rinpoche’s blessings and accomplishments.

A sacred Terma statue of Guru Rinpoche, known as Guru Dewa Chenpo, said to liberate one upon seeing it. This was one of the most precious items kept by Kyabje Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje Rinpoche, who would often sit in meditation with it. While he meditated with it, it would shed tears of Amrita.

In the past up till the present, many great masters and practitioners have seen Guru Rinpoche directly. These are the best signs. The middling signs are to have good experiences arising. The lesser signs are to meet Guru Rinpoche in dreams and to receive prophecies and blessings from Guru Rinpoche. Just listening and contemplating the Dharma is not enough to attain liberation. Besides that, one has practiced. 

In this manner, single-mindedly praying to Guru Rinpoche and merge your mind with Guru Rinpoche’s wisdom mind. This way of progressing on the path to liberation has less difficulties and obstacles. With total confidence and faith in Guru Rinpoche, not just with faith and sincerity, but believing that in any moment, Guru Rinpoche will never deceive or let us down. We must have the faith that Guru Rinpoche and our root teacher is inseparable and no different. Rely on this faith to practice.

The Myth of The Tibetan Monks and Yogis Meditation

Tibetan meditation is called “lhagthong.” The term "lhag" means "higher", "superior", "greater"; the term "thong" is "view" or "to see", hence together, lhagthong is taken to mean "superior seeing", "great vision" or "supreme wisdom." This may be interpreted as a "superior manner of seeing", and also as "seeing that which is the essential nature". Its nature is a lucidity — a clarity of mind.

The Tibetan Tibetan monks and Yogis meditate for hours upon hours each week. Their devotion to their religious traditions makes them experts in the practice of meditation. The Meditation and mindfulness induce a heightened state of awareness and focused attention.

Meditation and mindfulness induce a heightened state of awareness and focused attention. Most monks wake up early and meditate for 1 to 3 hours and do the same at night. This kind of practice changes the brain.

Advanced Tibetan Buddhist monks are trained to remember complex images as a way to clear their minds and achieve new levels of awareness. According to an article published in the Washington Post, “An experienced monk can visualize the details of as many as 700 deities used in meditation. 

Sometimes they would visualize the deity close up, sometimes from far away and some experienced meditators can keep a mental image in their minds for minutes and even days." 

Some psychologists say this is impossible. Their research shows that subjects can only mental images in seconds.

When asked about the techniques to rid oneself of desire and attachment, a Tibetan monk said, “The lamas taught us to stare at a statue of the Lord Buddha and absorb the details of the object the color, the posture, and so on, reflecting back all we knew of their teachings. 

Slowly you go deeper; you visualize the hand, the leg, and the Vajra in his hand, closing your eyes and trying to travel inward. The more you concentrate on a deity, the more you are diverted from worldly thoughts.

Some monks have reportedly mastered a form of meditation known as "lunggom"---meaning "walking on air"---which allows the monks to project themselves and travel around the countryside without leaving the monastery. 

One monk told a National Geographic writer who asked him to demonstrate, "Unfortunately, it takes much time to learn the theoretical aspects of lunggom before one can put it into practice so I'm afraid that we will just have to walk normally."

The Dalai Lama said, "The very purpose of meditation is to disciple the mind and reduce afflictive emotions." Some nuns meditate while pouring seeds into a plate, brushing them off and collecting them and then repeating the process over and over again.

What kind of meditation do Tibetan monks do and what are the types of meditation?

• Mindfulness meditation. 
• Spiritual meditation. 
• Focused meditation. 
• Movement meditation. 
• Mantra meditation. 
• Transcendental Meditation. 
• Progressive relaxation. •
• Loving-kindness meditation.

In Tibetan Buddhism, the central defining form of Vajrayana meditation is Deity Yoga (devatayoga). This involves the recitation of mantras, prayers and visualization of the yidam or deities (usually the form of a Buddha or a Bodhisattva) along with the associated mandala of the deity's Pure Land.

Advanced Deity Yoga involves imagining yourself as the deity. Other forms of Tibetan Buddhist meditation include the Mahamudra and Dzogchen teachings, taught by the Kagyu and Nyingma schools respectively.

The goal of these is to familiarize oneself with the ultimate nature of mind which underlies all existence, the Dharmakaya. There are also other practices such as Dream Yoga, Tummo, the yoga of the intermediate state (at death) or Bardo, sexual yoga and Chod. The shared preliminary practices of Tibetan Buddhism are called ngondro, which involves visualization, mantra recitation, and many prostrations.

Ushnishavijaya Dharani in Sanskrit/梵文佛頂尊勝陀羅尼經

The benefits of reciting the Ushnishavijaya Dharani / 梵文佛頂尊勝陀羅尼經,不空譯版

The purpose of this sutra is said to be to help sentient beings in a troubled and tumultuous world. According to this sutra, beings will leave suffering and obtain happiness, increasing in their prosperity and longevity, remove karmic obstacles, eliminate disasters and calamities, remove enmity and hatred, fulfill all wishes, and quickly be led into the Buddha's way.

It is held by some that when the Dharani is heard, it can imbue the Alaya consciousness with pure seeds that will help to lead one to Buddhahood. This mantra is also linked to Green Tara. 

According to the text, major applications of this Dharaṇi include:

1) Destroy calamities and rescue those in difficulties

2) Eliminate offenses and create good deeds

3) Purify all karmic obstructions

4) Increase blessings and lengthen lifespan

5) Attain anuttara-samyak-saṃbodhi

6) Relieve beings in the ghost realm

7) Benefit birds, animals and all crawling creatures

8) Increase wisdom

9) Revert the fixed karma

10) Eliminate various illness

11) Ensure the safety of the households, and having children to inherit the family pride

12) Harmonise husbands and wives

13) Be able to reborn in Sukhavati or other pure lands

14) Heal sickness inflicted by pretas

15) Request for rain

16) Destroy hells

If someone hears this Dharani even just for a moment, he will not undergo karmic retribution from evil karma and severe hindrances accumulated from thousands of kalpas ago, that would otherwise cause him to revolve in the cycles of birth and death - in all kinds of life forms in the evil paths. 

Hell, hungry ghost, animal, realm of King Yama, Asuras, ferocious animals, crawling creatures and even ants and other life forms...he will be reborn in the Buddhalands, together with all the Buddhas and Ekajati-pratibadda Bodhisattvas, or in a distinguished Brahmin or Ksatriya family, or in some other wealthy and reputable families.

Ushnishavijaya Dharani in Sanskrit:

Namo bhagavate trailokya prativiśiṣṭaya buddhāya bhagavate.

Namtose Vaisravana the enlightened wealth protector

 

Namtose or Vaisravana is an enlightened wealth protector who helps improve financial situations and grants strong protection against harmful interferences and negative energies. Excellent for homes, offices and places of business.

Namtose, also known as Vaisravana in Sanskrit and Bishamonten in Japanese, is a Buddha of Wealth and the Guardian of the Northern direction. He has two main aspects: that of a warrior protector and that of a deity of wealth.

Although fully enlightened, Namtose chose to manifest as a Bodhisattva with the aim of helping others overcome poverty and misery. He has promised Buddha Shakyamuni to preserve and protect the teachings of the Buddha and guide all its practitioners in future aeons.

He has one face, two arms and rides upon a snow lion. His face has a stern expression with bushy eyebrows and a beard, and his eyes are wide and round. His body is a rich golden yellow, his right hand holds a victory banner, and his left holds a mongoose, commonly associated with goodfortune in ancient India. The mongoose spits jewels symbolising his capacity as a wealth deity.

Namtose is one of the primary protectors of the Gelugpa sect and one of his specific functions is to protect the Middle Scope of the Lamrim. In his capacity as one of the Four Directional Guardians, Namtose is often depicted on the outer walls of monasteries and temples, to safeguard against harmful interferences.

This Namtose statue can be personalised with a hand-painted face using real gold dust or insertion of mantras and holy items. You can also offer traditional brocade clothing such as a Tibetan-style tule and pangden, or pearls and semi-precious stones, as H.E. Tsem Rinpoche always encouraged the practice of making offerings to the Three Jewels, which creates the causes for us to attain the six paramitas (perfections).
