Essence of Clear Light

The General Meaning of Dispelling Darkness in the Ten Directions, the Commentary on the Essence of the Secret, Called “Essence of Clear Light”

Homage to the Guru Manjushri

In the inner space of original purity free from elaboration,

Inseparable from the spontaneous presence of the depth of awareness,

Your wisdom body is free from aging and decline.

May the youthful Manjushri grant auspiciousness!

In the basic space of the equality of all phenomena,

You have fully perfected the play of what appears for you as the three enlightened forms,

Original protector Longchenpa, free from obscuration,

Trimé Özer, please watch over me!
