REQUEST FOR LONG LIFE MANTRAS TO OFFER HIS HOLINESS<\/h3>\n

THE 17TH GYALWANG KARMAPA, OGYEN TRINLEY DORJE<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The fourth Dodrupchen Rinpoche, who is one of the greatest living Nyingma masters, has said that if the followers of the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje accumulate recitations of this dharani, His Holiness will live long and his activities will benefit a great number of beings.<\/h4>\n

Therefore His Holiness\u2019 sister, Jetsun Ngodup Palzom has invited all students, individuals, groups and centres to join in, and to accumulate recitations that will be said by them or their group over the next year (2016, the Tibetan year of the Fire Monkey), as an offering for the benefit of everyone. She is asking for a commitment from each individual or group who wishes to join in, meaning an accumulated number of recitations will be offered during the year by each individual or group.<\/h4>\n

On behalf of our community, KSDJ has committed to 100 000 recitations of the Dharani during the Tibetan year of the Fire Monkey \u2013 2016 – 2017. We request that you count the numbers of he Dharanis that you recite, dedicate to the Karmapa and all sentient beings, and write your numbers in the book provided in the shrine room, or email your numbers to johannesburg@kagyu.org.za.<\/h4>\n

The Dharani of the Essence of Dependent Arising<\/h4>\n

This form of mantra is used by all schools of Buddhism, and this verse in particular contains the essence of the whole teaching of the Buddha, it is recited as a dharani by the addition of OM at the beginning, and SVAHA at the end.<\/h4>\n

OM YE DHARMA HETU PRABHAVA
\nHETUM TESHAM TATHAGATO HYAVADAT
\nTESHAM CHA YO NIRODHA
\nEVAM VADI MAHASHRAMANAH SVAHA<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

All dharmas originate from causes.
\nThe Tathagata has taught these causes,
\nAnd also that which puts a stop to these causes\u2014
\nThis too has been taught by the Great Shramana.<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

Origin of the Dharani of the Essence of Dependent Arising<\/h3>\n

The verses come from the vinaya beginning \u201cYe dharm\u0101 hetuprabhava\u201d and are the words spoken by the Arhat Assaji, (Sanskrit: A\u015bvajit<\/em>) to Upatissa, who was later known as Sariputta (Sanskrit: \u015aariputra<\/em>). Sariputta, along with his boyhood companion Kolita, known later as Moggall\u0101na (Sanskrit: Maudgalyayana<\/em>), were to become the two chief disciples of the Buddha. Upon meeting Assaji, Sariputta was impressed and asked after his teacher and the dharma that he taught. Assaji demurred, being \u201conly a beginner\u201d, but eventually responded with the now famous verse, and even before he had finished, Sariputta had a decisive break-through. Nyanaponika says:<\/p>\n

Upon hearing the first two lines, there arose in the wanderer Upatissa, the dust-free, stainless vision of the Dhamma \u2013 the first glimpse of the Deathless, the path of Stream-entry \u2013 and after hearing the final two lines Upatissa [Sariputta] was already listening as a stream-enterer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
