The Invocation of the Name of Manjushri Bodhisattva


I invoke your name, Manjushri. I aspire to learn your way, which is to be still and look deeply into the heart of things and into the hearts of people. I will look with all my attention and openheartedness. I will look with unprejudiced eyes. I will look without judging and reacting. I will look deeply so that I will be able to see and understand the roots of suffering, the impermanent and selfless nature of all that is. I will practice your way of using the sword of understanding to cut through the bonds of suffering, thus freeing myself and other species.
