PRAYER REQUEST WHEN OFFERING THE SELF-CULTIVATION RECORD FORM OF THE EIGHTY-EIGHT BUDDHAS GREAT REPENTANCE (LIFO)

An Enquiry to Secretariat of Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door, 12 September 2015 at 11:39

Dear staff,
How should we state our prayer when offering the Self-Cultivation Record Form of the Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance (LIFO)?

Dear Buddhist friend,

You can pray for repentance and the elimination of karmic obstacles relating to a specific transgression committed in this lifetime.

Alternatively, you can put forth a general prayer as follows:

“To the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, I, <your full name>, have accumulated <number> times of self-cultivation LIFO. May Bodhisattva and the Dharma Protectors bear witness today as I offer the merits from the recitation of LIFO to repay some of my karmic creditors and eliminate my karmic obstacles”.

May you progress well along the path of your Buddhism practice.

With Metta,
Secretariat
Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door
