You, who taught, by your own fine example, how to live the Dharma in every breath you take, to you I prostrate.

You, Great Teacher and Lineage Holder, loved and revered by all your students( who followed your great example and spread, as diligently, the Dharma of Je Tsongkhapa and the Gelugpa lineage teachings, to the four corners of the world) to you I prostrate.

You, whom the illustrious Pabongka Rinpoche regarded as his heart disciple(‘the most worthy vessel’), who received from him and then transmitted the entire Ganden lineage teachings (including the precious Oral Lineage) , through your direct disciples and their direct disciples, to the rest of the world, to you I prostrate.

You, who transcribed the oral teaching of the great Pabongka Rinpoche on the Lamrim, into the great classical Dharma text, “Liberation in the Palm of your Hand”(without which countless beings today would not have received precious Dharma such as this) and thereby lit a lamp of hope for liberation for this world’s beings, to the great Pabongka Rinpoche and to you, I prostrate.

You, O Precious Holy Being, who taught us in your ‘living’ autobiography, “The Illusory Play”, how to renounce completely samsara and take steadfast refuge in the Three Jewels and in the ineluctable Law of Karma, to you I prostrate.

You, O Unexcelled Disciple, who taught us in “The Illusory Play” , the vastness and the depths of Guru Devotion(by your exemplary devotion to your Root Guru, Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche), to you I prostrate.

You, O Teacher of Teachers, who show us, with such rare humility (and ever so poignantly), in “The Illusory Play”, how life is truly nothing but an ‘illusory play’ and that in the end, nothing matters but the Dharma, to you I prostrate.
