King of Aspiration Prayers

Samantabhadra's King of Aspirations Prayer Development of positive aspirations is particularly important for Buddhist practitioners to achieve successful practice. The merits that may be accumulated from reciting or hearing the Samantabhadra's King of Aspirations Prayer and giving rise to faith is particularly vast. In the prayer it is said that even if one adorns the infinite realms of the ten directions and oers them to the buddhas, the merit of hearing or reciting this Prayer and being inspired towards supreme awakening is more supreme.

Ven. Shangpa Rinpoche will be expounding on this prayer text, giving us a better perspective of Samantabhadra's teachings.
