Kenneth F. Thornton II | Praise Mantra to Yeshe Tsogyal ཡེ་ཤེས་མཚོ་རྒྱལ @shamanizing | Uploaded November 2018 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Yeshe Tsogyal also known as "Victorious Ocean of Wisdom", "Wisdom Lake Queen", was the Mother of Tibetan Buddhism. Her main karmamudrā consort was Padmasambhava, a founder-figure of the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.
She is known to have revealed terma with Padmasambhava and was also the main scribe for these terma. Later, Yeshe Tsogyal also hid many of Padmasambhava's terma on her own, under the instructions of Padmasambhava for future generations.
Translation-Praise Yeshe Tsogyal Mantra
For all sentient beings equally
Your heart is filled with love and compassion.
O Mother Yeshe Tsogyal,
Hear your child crying out to you!
Though I vowed to be a Bodhisattva,
My strength and realization are weak.
When turbulent thoughts unsteady me,
Please be a solid staff!
Though I want to discern clearly good and bad,
Even recognizing my own true nature is hard.
When the dark curtains of ignorance fall,
Please be a clear light.
Though I have courage and patience,
The fire of anger still flares.
When the joy of self and others is burning up,
Please be a constant rain of loving compassion!
Though I know non-grasping is supreme,
Without resolve, clinging is too much.
When mind and body are tormented with sensations,
Please open the great vista of self-liberating nature!
To all those who know and do not know you,
You are the great loving mother:
Kind companion,
Affectionate sister,
Fully enlightened Buddha,
O Yeshe Tsogyal, Yeshe Tsogyal, Yeshe Tsogyal.
Unshaking devotion within the lotus heart,
Through the sun of compassion and kindness,
Grant the light and shower of your blessings,
And bring the two activities to great frutiion!
Praise to Yeshe Tsogyal was written by Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche, during the second month of the Wood Boar year 2122 (1995) at Padma Samye Ling, New York State.
