These living beings are my kind mothers and have shown me great kindness. They are all drowning in the ocean of samsara, experiencing unbearable suffering, life after life. How wonderful it would be if they were free from suffering! May they be free from suffering. I myself will free them.

Buddhas manifest in many different aspects such as Brahma, Indra, and sometimes even as a mara or in the aspect of an evil person - but worldly people do not recognize these emanations.

Wheel Of Life

There are infinite world systems inhabited by living beings, but all of them are contained within the six realms.
The diagram of the Wheel of Life represents all the environments of samsara and all the beings who inhabit them. It reveals the nature of samsara and the paths that take us and keep us bound there.

The path to liberation

Moral discipline makes our body and speech pure and free from faults, whereas concentration and wisdom makes our mind completely pure and free from faults. Thus all three are necessary to attain liberation.

Refuge

Quote

From this time forth until I become a Buddha,
I shall keep even at the cost of my life
A mind wishing to attain complete enlightenment
To free all living beings from the fears of samsara and solitary peace.

Quote taken from Mahamudra Tantra

Universal compassion accomplished through the practice of Sutra teachings,and the wisdom of Mahamudra Tantric teachings, are like two wings of a bird.
Just as both wings are equally important for a bird to fly, so both Sutra and Tantra are equally important for practitioners seeking enlightenment.

May the negative karma and suffering of all living beings ripen upon me, and thus may they all be freed from suffering and its causes.

When we go on holiday we take care to carry enough money to see us through the whole holiday, but how much more important it is to ensure that we travel to future lives with enough virtue, or merit, to provide us with all the resources we shall need.

Lady Tara

You,who having abandoned all bodily faults, possess the signs and indications,
Who having abandoned all verbal faults, possess a heavenly voice,
Who having abandoned all mental faults, realize all objects of knowledge;
O Lady of blessed, glorious renown, may there be the auspiciousness of your presence.
