Opening prayers
The Four Immeasurables
May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness.
May they be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
May they never be separated from the great happiness which is devoid of suffering.
May they forever remain in boundless equanimity, free from both attachment and aversion.
Bodhicitta:
To Bodhicitta the precious and excellent mind,
Where it is not, may it arise
Where it is, may it never decline
Forever growing higher and higher.
