This Video is an excerpt from Homage to the Rare and Precious as a reference for Tara Dhatu Student Teachers.

Preliminary to any formal prayers, practices, sadhanas, and rituals, in the Tibetan Tradition, are the gestures of Refuge and Bodhicitta.

In the ritual of the Mandala Dance of the 21 Praises of Tara, the movement meditation of Refuge always precedes the dance. The text and melody comes from a section of the Lama Choepa Sadhana of the Gelugpa tradition. This gesture of Refuge invokes the Lineage of Teachers, the Enlightened Ones, Their Teachings, and the Community of Practitioners. The practitioners acknowledge that they are inspired by these sources of refuge and that their path is supported by them.

The Prayer of Bodhicitta can be found as a preliminary declaration throughout all Tibetan Buddhist lineages. The practitioner vows that until completely awakened, all actions and activities are dedicated to the benefit of all beings.

This inspiring musical rendering is sung in Sanskrit and Tibetan by Anahata Iradah. The meditative words, are spoken in English by Prema Dasara.
